      I wish DC reporters were normal and had a working sense of humor. Somebody needs to yell to the press secretary or to Trump himself - “Why are you stealing terrible fashy ideas from the Brits?” None of them would ever do it. But imagine if by some miracle I moved the lathe enough. If I John Malkovich’ed one of them to actually do it - they’d be quickly fired. Maybe even that day.

      They’re all soulless, empty-eyed human husks. Like ace access journo-slash-automaton Peter Baker…

    A reply

    So some genius in the administration bought into a failed policy the Brits finally shitcanned as unworkable, expensive, and legally questionable (at best). Yeah. Right on brand.

      “Mr. President - you said it was urgent…”

      “I got a brand-new my idea for a prison. Big my idea. Nobody told me. My idea. It was all my idea. Show me where SCI-pri-ot is on the map. I know a guy.”

      -–

      Ninja edit. I kind of made myself sad. Now I wish sci-pri (short for sci-priot) was a sci-fi sub-genre.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
