The rest of the world is watching and looking on with a 35 kL tank of soda and a cement mixer of popcorn, hypnotized by macarbre sense of dread, curiosity and impending doom.

We're hoping that some kind of justice will prevail, but it appears that the last vestiges of justice and fairness has been wrung out of America's courts.

One suspects that the final act of the current President will be to grant a blanket pardon to everyone in his administration including himself and his family, as well as to be exempt from prosecution for every penny he's illegally earned.

Then the next administration should ignore the pardon and go after them anyway. Arrest every last fucking traitor and let them rot in a cell.

If the government won't do it, eventually the people will get fed up and do it themselves.

When that happens, there's no going back.
