If Trump does #PardonSnowden before leaving office, it will be the one actually decent thing he's done. The Obama administration's poor handling of Snowden's disclosures of federal domestic spying was a major stain on its legacy.

There’s no question that the second trilogy had its moments, but I think it was, overall, a failure. Don’t get me started on the prequels.
The Mandalorian is so much fun that I’m optimistic about future Star Wars content.
Who would’ve guessed?
