I'd filed a Hanson/ Lambie cartoon for today but it seemed a bit tin eared with what's happened in Indi so I did a new, last minute one this morning. I had a few ideas about division & dark days but thought I'd focus on something that's bringing people together instead. Here's to Helen Haines.

Trump on El-Sayed: "His name is actually Abduladadalalalala. It's Adulbabababababa Mohammed Al-Sayed. So his middle name is Mohammed. So I was right. He's a jihadist."

This is the shit you love to hear just as everybody is feeling extremely anxious about the opaque ROI of AI and specifically AI capex in Meta’s case. You want a story where your CFO says “it will be really bad if you’re wrong about this”
On the Cheeky Pints podcast, CEO Mark Zuckerberg and chief AI officer Alexandr Wang revealed that Susan Li pulled Wang aside “many times” at a Hawaii offsite to warn him that if Meta’s new AI model flopped, it would be “really, really bad” financially. 😬 Read more: https://yhoo.it/4zQLL59

Pete Hegseth wasn't lying about us getting to see someone die on live TV.
😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

Jane Caro: “Education is used by the rest of the world to at least try to break down the class system. Almost alone in the developed world, Australia is using it to build one. We are now governed, not just in our parliaments, but in business…..by people who went to the same schools.” #auspol

England just edging other countries in boneheaded racism this year.
Dear tv and radio producers. Thankyou for the invitation. But, no, I do not want to appear on your show to defend the idea that I am English, after 50 years of living and working here, because the increasingly feral right want to turn this into a "debate" and you cannot see how you're being played

Ngl pasty white Western Europeans trying to connect themselves to Greeks 2,500 years ago has always beggared belief, but even by that standard this is a stretch
"Rubio also hailed the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés as an heir to the Athenian concept of exploring and pursuing knowledge for knowledge’s sake. Cortes is viewed much differently in Latin America..."

His vocabulary is so limited it’s like reading a transcript of Koko, the gorilla who knew sign language, if Koko were a white nationalist
I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings
