Yes.
Don't doubt their ~~incomitance~~ incompetence.

incomitance

Condition in which the manifest or latent angle of deviation of the lines of sight of the two eyes differs according to which eye is fixating or in which direction the eyes are looking. This condition is usually attributed to a paresis or paralysis of one or more of the extraocular muscles.

So, Marty Feldman eyes caused this!?

Edit - look both ways at once before crossing

Is there a picture of Kash Patel where he doesn’t look like he simultaneously realized he left the oven on and shit his pants?

It's as rare as finding a picture of Sam Altman not looking depressed/concerned or a picture of Mark Zuckerberg not looking like a lizard-person.

Zuck must have taken the lizard man jibes to heart. At some point he completely changed his image. Bet money he was coached and practiced smiling in the mirror, not even being funny.

You know they (the Whitehouse goons) say that the Capitol Police officer that killed ashli babbitt "never faced charges", this pardon language is so broad that he never could even if he did do something wrong (which he did not).

Trump’s proclamation commuted the sentences of 14 individuals and also granted “a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.” This immediately covered roughly 1,500 people, including hundreds of defendants who were charged with assaulting or resisting law enforcement officers.

With this language, the guy retroactively created a federal anarchy zone for a period of time in Washington DC.

That’s why MTG, who was the pipe bomber, feels safe retiring from politics now.

Well that's cool I guess. Right? Now it'll be more exciting to do anything outside the house.
