The stupid people
These are genuinely stupid people. Example: Hegseth bans photographers
from the Defense Dept. briefing because of unflattering photos of him.
But apparently it never occurs to his walnut-sized brain that the
video feeds of the press conference are providing 30 photos of him per
second, almost all of which will be unflattering because that's how he
looks and behaves and from which the most unflattering can be easily
chosen. -L
