No, Canada. Not "they", but "he", or "it", but def not "they".
Don't worry about the DOGE account. That money was never real in the first place. I bet he still has to pay his DOGies out of his pocket unless they can pass the hat (black of course) at the agencies they are smashing. The usual "protection racket" stuff.
I hope someone explains to Billy that forgiven debt has to be included as taxable income on his tax return for the year it was forgiven and, depending on his tax bracket, could have to pay anywhere from 12 to 39 percent of it all at once next year to the IRS plus state/local income tax on it ather than just paying it off slowly.
I'll vent later in the open thread too, but Human Rights Campaign is on my shit list. I donated last year but said DO NOT SET TO AUTOMATIC RENEWAL. So, I opened up my credit card statement and saw that HRC had renewed the membership. Pissed me off. So, I checked my email to see if there was some warning that my membership was about to renew. Nada! Also, it is impossible to cancel on their website AND a human does not answer the phone when you call their 800 number. So, I have left a testy voicemail and I have sent a testy email.
I'm not a Christian but I liked Pope Francis because he tried to be less of a dick than other popes. I'm sorry that he died. I'm sorry that among the last people he saw was JDVance, scrounge of couches.
"The weak link in the Blitzkrieg strategy was the soldiers, who were humans rather than machines and as such suffered from fatigue. They required regular rest and sleep, which, of course, slowed down the military advance. That is where Pervitin came in—part of the speed of the Blitzkrieg literally came from speed. As medical historian Peter Steinkamp puts it, “Blitzkrieg was guided by methamphetamine. If not to say that Blitzkrieg was founded on methamphetamine.”
Jager, who also was on a SecDef Signal chat about top secret military plans, wants you to know he has the appropriate clearance level, despite his young age. Info about him here: https://open.substack.com/pub/martiniambassador/p/lil-lesser-kudu

Kutie-do!
I like that this Kudu looks like a supermodel--big eyes and lashes and the look on his face.
That is one pissed off Kudu.
The pensive kudu...the cutest ungulate in the room.
Kudu you love?
Who kudu think you’re fooling?
That's the most disdainful look I've ever gotten from a cervine.
Intense looking little guy.
Goodmorning Jager!
Kudu, kudu, kudu be loved.
The Crew has TS/SCI, and several code word and secret handshake (pawshake) clearances. Hamilton, being a mere clerk has a 6'2" clearance.

You know why
Clearance level? If you can't trust a lesser kudu, who 𝘤𝘢𝘯 you trust?
Credence. And, you know, my briefcase... with papers... rolling papers...
I got a JOB!
Babby Zebra Deer!
Gotta say, "Jager" is an interesting name for an antelope..
If the antelope was a "Jaegermeister," it might have mastery over all hunters, which would be a good thing.
Have a Jaegermeister, you say?
Well, it's early, but if I don't, someone else will...
Day 4 of a four day weekend, here. No Jaeger in the house, but I do have this Jamaican rum that has a certain funk. Sun, yardarm etc.
But a perfect name for a Defense Secretary.
"Call me whatever you like, just don't call me late for happy hour."
😆
Can’t wait for a sibling named Meister to come along.
Kudu? Who knew!?
Better than kudzu.....
No way that Jager is a lesser anything!
He got his security clearance through an obliging secretary bird.
😁
"The CDC is closing labs while we’re having a hepatitis outbreak, and that measles outbreak is still growing too."
When I was considering which pandemic would be the next one I did not hepatitis and measles on my list.

I love that this kudu has mastered expressing skepticism with just a couple of ear movements at a very young age.

It's time that we collectively sign up for a subscription service. It's only right.

OMG, that British chick in the yellow passed out on a hedge! Still holding the champagne glass upright!
Pete Hegseth is running true to form. Chaos, abuse of power, failure to maintain secrets.

The best POPE that ever POPED!

I'm so in love with "the construction site of hell" that I am nearly beside myself.
The lady in yellow lying in the hedge is holding her beverage perfectly upright, at least in the first photo. Way to be.
The photos from the english horse race: doesn't that lady lying in the buses remind you of the current press secretary?
Are we certain she's not?
