He's also just straight-up stealing from the treasury to reward his paramilitary thugs at this point.

Imagine being trapped in a turbolift with Morn, Dr. Vassbinder, and Calvin Hutchinson.

I remember I visited Italy on a Latin class trip back in high school, and got a real culture shock when I saw carabinieri(?) patrolling the airport armed with some kind of assault rifles or SMGs. I don't remember seeing any "normal" police once I was out walking around in the cities so I have no idea if they would've been armed or not, but that was definitely heavier weaponry than I'd seen any American cop carrying, in the airport or otherwise.

I don't think non-Americans appreciate how few guns one encounters in America if one isn't a gun nut or gun-nut-adjacent. It is not that everybody owns a gun. It's that the relative few people who own dozens or hundreds of guns skew the average.

Back to the Future.

I'm pretty sure we've known that for a fact since April.

That's a good point: at first glance it sounds like a big deal because it's "international travel," but the Bahamas are basically right next to mar-a-lago anyway so (depending exactly which island the wedding is on) it probably actually is within chopper distance.
