Why Did "Magic Mushrooms" Evolve To Be Hallucinogenic – What's In It For The Mushrooms?
Psilocybin must be useful in some way to the fungi. In fact, it may be so useful that it has evolved this mind-altering compound several times.

Two residues reprogram immunity receptors for nitrogen-fixing symbiosis - Nature
An investigation of plant receptor-like kinases identifies regions of these proteins that control whether immune or symbiotic signalling pathways are activated, with minimal changes to specific residues in one of these regions being sufficient to alter signalling specificity.

SCOTUS gave Trump immunity from prosecution. Congress wouldn’t impeach him no matter what he does. He ignores court orders. Ignores Congress. His cabinet does anything he tells them to even if it’s illegal. DOJ does too. And the military. That’s how autocracies are born.
