  3. The Liberal response to DOGE is proof that “There’s No Intelligent Life In Liberal-Land”.

      1. I look forward to seeing this kind of abject hysteria in Canada very soon, as the swamp creatures are exposed to the searing light of the sun. They’ll be turning to stone all over the place. Ottawa will be like a garden center that sells statuary.

        I’m already whittling stakes of holly and linden if the sun alone is insufficient.

        For the really -ancient- ones we have orbital assets. It’s the only way to be sure.

          1. I dunno…

            A judicial decree that the Secretary of Treasury is not allowed to examine the records in the Treasury Department seems a little lacking in intelligence. I agree that panic (and arrogance) was also involved. But I would expect a rationale that would at least *try* to pass the most basic scrutiny from common sesnse, let alone the Supremes.

            1. Federal judges are appointed for life and serve on “good behavior”, so absent hookers and blow revelations (and even then in some cases) that judge is only tossing his chances for confirmation to a higher court under the current congressional mix.

              But there’s an effort underway to start some judicial impeachments in congress which could be interesting. One vastly overreaching politically driven restraining order does not an impeachment make, but this guy seems to have some baggage…

              1. “Vastly overreaching? Hold my beer.”

                Federal District Judge Tanya Chutkan is poised to issue a temporary restraining order that would block nearly everyone in the Trump administration from accessing any data produced by any federal agency or dismissing any federal or contract workers.

                This is the lovely individual who enabled the lawfare against Trump, and populated the DC Gulag. It’s not often you see a judge who thinks she can nullify Article 2.

                1. I’m impressed (and not in a positive way) at the hubris there. I might have to pull up the court order, if one is issued, and see if I can sort out the “logic” used for that. And to use in class when/if the question of checks and balances comes up.

  5. Either I came up with, “The Watcher in the Lobby took Margaret,” or it’s the sort of thing that appears to a lot of people at once.

    John Ringo put up the dialogue and I commented, “The Watcher in the Lobby took Margaret ” because I’m a Tolkien fan too. Got a like from him.

    But it’s neat to see it in a meme.

    1. I prefer:

      “Their eyes piercing all shadows looked across the plain to the door that they had made; and the magnitude of their own folly was revealed to them in a blinding flash, and all the devices of their enemies were at last laid bare.

      “Then their wrath blazed in consuming flame, but their fear rose like a vast black smoke to choke them. For they knew their deadly peril and the thread upon which their doom now hung.”

  6. Glad you got the Mongo meme. I’m more than ready to see Mongo turn Gaza upside down looking for candy (and hostages).

    The one about worrying….worries me.

    1. Same. I was in the process of swallowing a bite an egg sandwich when I came across the RFK Jr/Gavin Newsome/Biden trifecta. Came *thisclose* to choking to death. But God must have spared me for some higher purpose, because here I am now, alive and typing. :)

  9. I always enjoy the meme posts, but this is just over the top good. The Peanut and Fred one was just… amazing, tearing up great. And the political valentines are fall-on-the-floor funny.

  11. Invincible moose is real.

    Used to live in Northern Ontario; moose hunting season was in two parts: earlier, south of the highway, and later, north of the highway. Just before moose season opened, one could observe moose cruising northwards.

    Highway department of course had ‘Moose Crossing’ signs. Locals tried to prank a couple Yank hunters, and told them they could get their moose if they would just hang out near one of those signs. Couple hours later, the grateful Yanks and their moose came back. True story. (I was in 8th grade; documenting such things was not in my worldview yet.)

    And yes, clear reports confirm that cars are on the losing end of intersections with moose. Moose walks away, car remains steaming and stationary.

    I have stayed a couple times in the UK chain that gives the rubber ducks. I gave them to grandchildren.

    1. I’ve seen what happens when a luxury car – one of the really big ones from a few decades back, possibly a Cadillac – hits an elk, which is quite a bit smaller than a moose. Probably the only reason why the driver and passenger weren’t hurt is because of the sheer size of the front of those cars.

      1. My best friend hit an elk with a pickup while she was doing silo patrol in the AF. She was fine, but the truck and the elk weren’t. Her handle temporarily became. “Deerslayer.”

  12. Veterans, raise your hand if you shuddered, winced, or reacted with some combination of the two upon seeing the word “repeat” in the “Mike Echo Oscar Whiskey” meme. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one.

      1. Or, “say WHAT?”

        Oh. Not proper procedure.

        “Whisky Tango Foxtrot?”

        Try “What you talkin’ about, Willis?” Why you would ask that of a Martian Bouncer, I do not know.

    3. Yeah, winced a little on that one. Back when I was in the Guard, I started out in an Engineer battalion S3 shop. We ran the Bn TOC (Tactical Operations Center). One of my many tasks was running the commo desk, usually on the ‘graveyard’ slot. Got it drummed into my head early that outside of it’s actual use, that term was heavily contraindicated . . .

  13. I looked into creating a ‘rain/rein/reign’ meme to go with your ‘hoard/horde’ meme from a few months ago, but I couldn’t find an existing picture that fit and there doesn’t seem to be any way to combine 3 of them.

  18. My first thought when I saw the “flower season” meme was “What caliber for flowers?”.

    The one about the spare gun reminded me of an exasperated Jaeger asking Owen how many guns he had, and Owen’s reply:

    “Lots.”

    2. My thought was I am pretty sure I could actually hear the young lady’s eye roll when her big honking hint blasted on by over his head.

      But as a guy, I sympathize, as I don’t speak “hint” either, so I can only mourn for his impending doom.

      Liked by 1 person

      1. On the other hand – and I admit that there is a slim possibility of this – he could have known what she was hinting, and was already planning on surprising her later in the day. In this instance, his “clueless” comment would be designed to throw her off the track until the surprise was ready.

  19. It’s true. If the baddies would have just left the ex-Veggie Tales writers alone to do their funny webpage, everything might have come out very differently.

    But of course they didn’t. They couldn’t.

    Unlike the baddies, God has a GREAT sense of humor.

      1. I don’t remember all the details, but Old Twitter banned The Babylon Bee for running a bit about “Rachel” Levine, the trans Navy Secretary. It was possibly the deciding factor in Elon Musk buying Twitter.

        1. Levine was assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services and an “Admiral” in rank and uniform due to being in charge of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.

          Navy Secretary under Brandon was Carlos Del Toro, who has not publicly appeared in women’s clothing.

        2. OK, thank you. I knew the Bee was censored, I didn’t think there was ANY link between the Babylon Bee and VeggieTales alumni. If I have time I’ll have to dive into that angle a little deeper.

  23. Amazing memes as always and greatly appreciated. Whole heatedly loved the Valentine’s Day ones

    Regarding proper use of that word I imagine JD Vance’s speechwriter for Munich as a Forward observer telling him:

    “Alright JD*

    Fire for Effect.

    …Repeat…

    Fire for Effect “
