Oh, look: a deliberately punitive move having nothing to do with budget limitations. Excuse me while I question Kristi Noem’s commitment to complying with legal restrictions.

Fuck Donald Trump. (Senior, although I’ll throw in Junior for the same price.)

Fuck Mike Johnson and the Lickspittle Caucus.

But above all, fuck Henry Cuellar (POS-TX) with a cream-cheese dildo.

@kims Dumb Q: why not just let insurance reject one of the bills? Or is the point that they won’t process EITHER claim in this scenario?

Or that the provider won’t even let you double-schedule because they know what bastards the insurers are?

“Intense” does not begin to describe this confrontation.

Also, anybody who has his hand on his gun in this situation, in which there is zero threat of physical harm, has no business being (or pretending to be) a federal officer. Total amateur hour by Mr. “It’s Only Gonna Get Worse.”

@kims Interesting how few of these are even mildly close. I’m especially surprised Palmer Luckey isn’t making a better (by which I mean worse) showing because he really is an utter POS.

Also, on what planet is Couch Fucker “in tech”?

The bonkers-to-word-count ratio here is impressive. Put your favorites in the replies. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/12/13/world/asia/cia-nuclear-device-himalayas-nanda-devi.html?unlocked_article_code=1.8k8.tLxi.iV8HBFfrThsr&smid=url-share
