I hate Hegseth, but at the time he said that, I suspect he genuinely thought that was Administration policy. But with a President as dumb, mean-spirited and impulsive as ours, national policy can change in seconds.
I’d have a cooler full of pop/soda, and would give anyone that had his face covered a free drink. Everyone in the car.
“Because your doing your duty as a citizen and trying to abolish hate and treason, here’s your Coke”
Well, it’s something…
Hegseth is an idiot. He doesn’t genuinely think anything. Other than maybe “Me though guy” (I’m not responding to you Elendil, just spouting off in general)
Policy generaly means “This is the way we/you do this” It often follows these things called standards. And precident.
There is absolutely zero national policy under Trump. Well except give Trump money and hurt others. That is the national policy now.
There is this:
SFGATE: DOI cracks down on stickers covering Trump’s face on national park passes
It goes on to explain that staff members handed altered passes can make a judgment call on whether to accept them, assuming that all security features — a mountain-shaped foil hologram, some imprinted micro text, and the word “interagency” across the front of the pass in invisible ink — are all still visible.
The employee who provided the emails to SFGATE said that they and colleagues were facing this issue for the first time.
“I’ve personally accepted passes that people put stickers on because they just like stickers and it’s never been a problem,” they said. “If you buy a pass from REI, they have a little sticker on it that a lot of people don’t take off. We’ve accepted those and never had a problem.”
They also pointed out that wasting time fussing with passes causes lines to form at park entrances and is something they want to avoid.
I wouldn’t be surprised if park employees don’t give a shit and will wave you through.
How about just a little round sticker that covers the traitors face? Preferably the international ‘NO’ symbol. The red circle with a line through it.
A stamp, maybe?
Something like a stamp. I guess If I had that assholes face in my wallet, I’d be sitting on it all the time.
Only after a big meal of beans, of course.
I believe Timothy Snyder uses the word “regime” to refer to the Trumpites (in preference to “administration”).
(I don’t have a handy quote, but will look for one.)
Somewhere in the beachhead dump of stuff I have left over from previous jobs there’s one which says VOID in large unfriendly letters. That would seem appropriate, especially when used with red ink.
Q: Which one of those is this…?
In reading the comments on the Alt National Park Service FB page, someone who (allegedly) is a Park Ranger said, “I’ll not only accept your pass, but I’ll lend you a Sharpie if you don’t have a sticker.”
The resistance is strong among the ranks, it would seem.
Choose your colors well and it will blend with the foundation so only people who look closely can see it.
Trump said he was going to be in charge of the money. So, of course, it’s going to offshore accounts. He can’t just put it directly into his own accounts, now can he? That would look suspicious.
The President of Peace is asking for a 50% increase in the defense budget. That says so much about where we are as a nation that I don’t know where to start with my criticism.
I thought we were calling it the war budget.
How can we help defend Greenland? Trump will get it, and then wonder why there is so much snow and ice and blame Biden for that I suppose.
“C’mon, ‘green’ was right in the name!?!”
And Erik the Red looks down from Valhalla and chuckles. “Caught another one!”
I saw a video from a guy selling a sleeve for your National Park passes. They have the original mountain and wildlife designs, not the Trump mugshot. You only have to take the card out of the envelope, sans sticker, at the gate.
