That would be irresponsible - this is intelligence, not evidence that would hold up in court.
Trudeau himself says that some of the intel could be wrong.
Of course, if they have irrefutable evidence regarding any individuals, I agree with you.
I think requiring the support of 5% of the population to trigger a hearing is more than fair.
I'd like to know more about the hearings themselves, though.
It seems like JT is handling the situation just about as well as could be expected.
Indeed - for those who may not be aware, Lower Decks season posters tend to be based on the corresponding film.
We're now up to Star Trek V.
This sounds like my kind of book - going deeper than the usual suspects.
Yeah, the Delta arc is pretty laser-focused on the Vaadwaur, but it's a little surprising they didn't do a payroll or something.
There's definitely nothing in STO, despite the dev teams absolutely loving deep cuts.
the fact the Federation was not picking up steam at all (and felt much more in decline), to me indicates that the writers intended for us to interpret this as the Federation in its death throws until the Discovery showed up.
I agree with the basic fact - the Federation was struggling to maintain what it had in the face of the Emerald Chain and others, and it took Discovery's arrival with unique technology to give it an edge.
But I think they framed it as a story of resilience and determination, mainly through Vance and Sahil.
I disagree with the premise - I think the series as a whole stands as a testament to the Federation prevailing over adversity - it's one of the prevailing themes of the series.
Even the Burn didn't destroy the Federation as you suggest. It became smaller as travel and communication became difficult-to-impossible, but it still existed, and Starfleet was doing everything it could to maintain the peace.
Wow, what a cudgel.
