So I’m wondering what the Senate were doing between the Emperor’s rise and when he dissolved it in the first one. Just sitting around, twiddling their thumbs, to rubber-stamp his decisions and say how great he is? Rogue 1 seems to imply that they have lost most of their power. They seem to live in fear or hiding. A few of the leaders in the command center crowd are senators - when Jyn gives her speech about “rebellions are built on hope”. And the first time we see Bale Organa he comes skulking out of the shadows. He gives off a vibe that he has been keeping a low profile for quite some time despite still being a senator. Bale Organa’s Jimmy Smits, right? I’d forgotten he was a senator. What’s her name, the Rebellion leader, said they were going to give evidence to the Senate about the Death Star or something, which prompted the question, and I can definitely tell they’ve lost most of their power, but I was just wondering how the Rebels expected the Senate to do anything about it even if the senators had all the information about the Emperor’s evil plans.
