Along with today's 'toon about the noise-pollution problem the news media, Tom/Dan wrote:
Hey All,
The news from America’s concentration camps is more awful every time we learn a little more. The DHS’s own Office of Inspector General released a report detailing dangerous overcrowding and unhealthy conditions, outbreaks of flu, chickenpox and scabies have been recorded, and border agents are apparently “arming themselves and drinking” in response to the pressure of the awful conditions.
This will not end well.
Meanwhile, Trump got the big military celebration he’s been hoping for since he saw the Bastille Day parade a few years ago, or at least some version of it — there were a few tanks on display but it wasn’t exactly a Red Square-style show of force.

In today's installment of TMW, Biff (sans Wanda) hosts a "discussion" on Action McNews with the "Serious Centrist" on the left and a Trumper on the right about the horrible crimes against humanity on the US border with Mexico. The final panel is a horrifying illustration of ambivalence toward evil. If this is a (fair & balanced) parable at the approach of mid-century, so be it.
