January 16th 1757 Battle of Narela. The Marathas defeat the Durrani Empire
Have to admit - I read that as "Battle of Narnia."

How would you improve this villain?
He has no Enhanced Senses, and no Movement powers. I'd think at least Nightvision would be good to add, and some additional Running and Leaping.
Personally, I'd put the two Aids and Healing into a Multipower, and then do an Aid to Running and Leaping as an additional slot. I think you have to keep the Resistant Protection out of the Multipower because of the Continuing Charges, but I believe the others can work fine in there as-is.
30 Hyde's Little Helpers: Mutlipower 60 points, OIF (OIF, drug, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (12, -1/4) [12 Charges]
2f Hyde's Strength Increase Drug: Aid Fixed Effect Strength+30AP (Fades 5AP/Turn)(+0), Focus (OIF, drug, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (3, -1 1/4) [3 Charges]
2f Hyde's Haste Drug: Aid Fixed Effect Speed +30AP (Fades 5AP/Turn)(+0), Focus (OIF, drug, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (3, -1 1/4) [3 Charges]
2f Hyde's Healing Meditation: Healing 6d6, Simplified, Focus (OIF, drugs, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (3, -1 1/2) [3 Charges]
2f Hyde's Mobility Increase Drug: Aid Fixed Effect Running and Leaping +18AP (Fades 5AP/Turn)(+0), Expanded Effect (2 Powers)(+1/2), Focus (OIF, drugs, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (3, -1 1/2) [3 Charges]
This should save you 22 points overall. With some of those points, and being a big fan of bad puns, I'd add another Illegal Medication:
18 Hyde's Hide and Seek Drug: Invisibility to Sight and Smell / Taste Groups, No Fringe, Focus (OIF, drugs, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (3 Continuing Charges Lasting 5 Minutes Each, -1/2) [3 Continuing Charges, 5 Minutes Duration]
With the remaining points:
4 Hyde's Better Eyesight Drug: Nightvision and Infrared Perception, Focus (OIF, drugs, -1/2), Gestures (-1/4), Charges (3 Continuing Charges Lasting 5 Minutes Each, -1/2) [3 Continuing Charges, 5 Minutes Duration]
Edit to add: Oops, I just saw the Running and Leaping in the Hyde Formula. So omit that Mobility Increase drug, unless you want to really boost his mobility. Or maybe give him an Aid to his Presence instead.

The Maine Secretary of State rules that Trump does not qualify for the Presidential ballot, due to his role in the Jan. 6th events. Turns out, it's how the Maine law works...it first has to go through the SoS's office, as the chief election officer for the state.
This entire election is shaping up to be ugly, in ways that transcend the normal electoral politics. The entire structure of the election is going to be called into question, if Trump doesn't win...he'll assert the whole process was poisoned, if he's not on all the ballots. And in any state if he's excluded? Oh man...nightmare. Alternate selection of electors, election challenges, potentially CONSTANT objection to seating delegates when the time comes to certify the delegates. Absolute chaos.
Let's be honest here - if Trump was on every state's ballot, there were no ongoing criminal trials involving him, and he were to lose the 2024 election - there would still be alternate slates of electors, election challenges, CONSTANT objection to seating delegates when the time comes to certify the delegates, as well as CONSTANT baseless claims of a stolen election in the years following the election.
As support to this claim, I submit as evidence: the 2020 election and the last 3 years.
When dealing with a toddler prone to tantrums, giving in is not the way to go. You nip that **** in the bud.

Batman has such a big "family" now they could fill a small superhero world with just Bats
I know, right? I mean, it drives me batty. -
I came home from shopping and told my wife that two girls were checking me out at the mall. I told her, "They were really admiring my waistline and my rear end."
"Oh, really?" she said skeptically.
"Sure," I replied. "One looked at me and said, 'What a waste!" And the other said, 'Yeah, what an a**!'"

After a particularly mild winter in small town, the place became infected with squirrels in the spring. Because the local churches had the best trees, the squirrels often congregated (pun intended) near them and this is what each church decided to do about the pesky animals.
The Presbyterian church called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrel infestation. After much prayer and consideration, they concluded that the squirrels were predestined to be there, and they shouldn’t interfere with God’s divine will.
At the Baptist church the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistery. The deacons met and decided to put a waterslide on the baptistery and let the squirrels drown themselves. The squirrels liked the slide and unfortunately, knew instinctively how to swim, so twice as many squirrels showed up the following week.
The Lutheran church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God’s creatures. So, they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist church. Two weeks later the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down the waterslide.
But the Catholic church came up with their own strategy. They baptized all the squirrels and made them members of the church. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter.
And the synagogue soon had no squirrel problem at all after the first bris.

IME, 90% of the non-clergy people who spout off about what the Bible says, have hardly (if at all) read it.

MOSTLY releases. He's still not allowing the most senior leaders' nominations to proceed. So, he's still a jackass, IMO.
Neither I nor the article said he was releasing all of his holds. As to the final sentence, I didn't figure that was in doubt, but FWIW, I agree.

DEATH. He'll hook a pair of wild boars to a sled and ride around trying to restore faith in somebody called the Hogfather.

A monastery has a rule where the junior monks must take a vow of silence, except for once a year when they may speak two words.
After joining the monastery, one monk reaches the end of his first year and may speak his two words. He says, "Bed's hard."
A year later, when he can speak his two words, he says, "Oatmeal's cold."
The next year, he says, "I quit" and walks out.
The head monk (who's allowed to speak freely) says, "No surprise there. He was always complaining."
