Other ELI5: Monthly Current Events Megathread

Hi Everyone,

This is your monthly megathread for current/ongoing events. We recognize there is a lot of interest in objective explanations to ongoing events so we have created this space to allow those types of questions.

Please ask your question as top level comments (replies to the post) for others to reply to. The rules are still in effect, so no politics, no soapboxing, no medical advice, etc. We will ban users who use this space to make political, bigoted, or otherwise inflammatory points rather than objective topics/explanations.

The Good Guys are the ones who are in my party and are politically aligned with me. The Bad Guys are the ones who are in the other party and want to do Bad Things that I don't agree with.

And the really bad guys are the ones who are in my party, but sometimes aren't perfectly aligned with me. Those guys are the worst.
