The NYT used this same Getty image in the print edition at the end of last week. Have you actually looked at the photo. It has many tells that suggest it has been manipulated -- either by AI or an image processing app. (For example, the protrusion coming out of Mr. Netanyahu's neck.)

I recall the time Seymour demonstrated Mr. Mechai's technique in front of a delegation from the Vatican. They didn't think it was very playful :P

It also begs the question, from whom does the WPost think their employees are endangered because of her post?

But is Mahler's assertion that government's response to the pandemic were "oppressive counter-measures" factual? And why hasn't anyone pressed Mr. Trump to deliver his "list of abuse and waste and fraud"?

Varmus asks the right question: Why? But Mahler makes some unsubstantiated assertions, such as "government's oppressive counter-measures" to the pandemic. What is that all about? And the media has dropped the ball on asking Mr. Trump to deliver his "list of abuse and waste and fraud."

We need a Rubio death counter as well -- the destruction of USAID is mass murder as well.

The bottom graphic looks as if it is giving the middle finger to the voters.

Alas, if it were up to Mr. Trump's (not our) Justice Department to intervene, what do you think the outcome would be?

Another way to describe this is mass murder.

"Gather 'round while I sing you of Wernher von Braun,
A man whose allegiance
Is ruled by expedience...
You too may be a big hero,
Once you've learned to count backwards to zero.
"In German oder English I know how to count down,
Und I'm learning Chinese!" says Wernher von Braun." - T. Lehrer

Vance needs to listen to Tom Lehrer's "Wernher von Braun".

I would have thought that the mandate was only to teach past tense. Future tense is definitely out.

To be fair, the Trump 45 corporate tax cuts did transfer a large amount of money to foreigners.
