I didn't watch the s---show. I've heard lots, however, about Hedgpeth's makeup. Must have been obvious. Those generals showed their self-discipline to not laugh at Private Cosmetics while he told them to get tough. And, I want the hat.
While you’re at it, how about a LONG SLEEVE T-shirt? Autumn is here, according to the calendar, and while it’s presently 77° here in MN (another sign of the apocalypse), we want Borowitz gear which can go all the way to 0°!
This hat will complement our new hat "I (heart) Due Process," that will also complement our T shirts "86/47". We will have to choose which hat to wear at the upcoming "No Kings!" meetup on October 18.
Yay!!! I love a good message cap. I have a Jewish Space Lasers cap from, I think, Dissent Pins, that they created after MTG claimed it was Jewish Space Lasers causing everything bad. The motto of the Jewish Space Laser Force is Mazel Tough. Alas, because of that deranged idiot Netanyahu, I don't wear it anymore. I wish I could!
I will, though I don’t wear baseball caps, really. Maybe I’ll sew/draw the sentiment onto a tee, or make a bumper sticker. It encapsulates a lot of my angst right now, on the heels of the top generals’ “secret party”..
Please note that exactly NONE of the Generals were looking like they were having a good time. They all maintained military bearing in the face of a torrent of fascist political propaganda and cheap mafioso threats from the "Commander in Chief", who was totally non-plussed as to why they didn't stand and give him Nuremburg rally type applause when he told them they needed to be ready to wage ware on over half of America's citizens.
Can’t be a good time for veterans who spent 30+ years fighting, leading and managing combat operations, to now be lectured by a draft dodger who called vets losers, and platoon a leader who’s next rank was a Fox talking head.
If you go to T Shirt Palace, you can order protest merch already designed, modify an existing design or start with AI for an original design. Have at it!
Judith, come visit NYC and we'll do groceries together. People will smile and scatter flowers in your path. I've never worn a cap, but will don (don't say it) this one at a one-fifth turn just to be a little arrogant and carefree.
Superb post today. My question is whether the "new, manly" military will allow the troops to wear makeup. Thin edge of the wedge. Next they will get all "woke" again.
He hates blue governors, but secretly admires Putin, Kim and Xi. So Portland troops are a distraction from his failure to defend Ukraine, Taiwan or the S China Sea.
It's sad that Hegseth was Trump's only original contribution.
So much to flash on, but I'll be brief.
Diminutive Mike Johnson would fit right in. Let's send him to North Korea for adoption.
Why are the crowns of the fancy caps so inflated? So that they won't crush the official hairdo.
For myself, I'm ready to order Make America Not Embarrassing Again. I'll even wear it.
Andy we need MERCH - I would buy that hat too!
Love the hat!
YES...gotta have one!!
ME TOO!!!!!!! HOW MUCH IS IT. HEY ANDY, YOU COULD MAKE A MILLION!!!!!!!!
Me three!! I'd love that hat. Can you make it in a wider brim for women?
I will definitely buy that hat! Right now I have a MAGA hat written in Russian...
Put me down for at least three of the hats. I can alternate them with my "Make America Sana Again" hats
L. R. that's exactly what I was asking myself: "why are the hats so big???" And yes: I want a MANEA cap!!!
Those generals must not have access to any tailors. Their pants are dragging on the ground.
So true, America’s ingenuity gone missing.
I didn't watch the s---show. I've heard lots, however, about Hedgpeth's makeup. Must have been obvious. Those generals showed their self-discipline to not laugh at Private Cosmetics while he told them to get tough. And, I want the hat.
Customary brilliance!!! Do you sleep at night, Andy, or lie awake thinking?
OK, how do I get a hat, or 2or 3?
They will be on sale soon (to benefit Indivisible) -- stay tuned!
YAY!
I look stupid in hats, but I’m willing to sacrifice style for a hat like that!
While you’re at it, how about a LONG SLEEVE T-shirt? Autumn is here, according to the calendar, and while it’s presently 77° here in MN (another sign of the apocalypse), we want Borowitz gear which can go all the way to 0°!
me, too ... i will get the hat when it is available.
Martha, I don't believe for a moment that you look "stupid" in hats, not even the stupid ones. Like this, a baseball cap. You'd dignify it.
This hat will complement our new hat "I (heart) Due Process," that will also complement our T shirts "86/47". We will have to choose which hat to wear at the upcoming "No Kings!" meetup on October 18.
I have a t shirt with 86 45 2020. I wore it to my caucus meeting and my picture was in the paper…in a red state!
holy shitski

Brilliant! I love the "Mazel Tough"! Yes, too bad you can't wear it now...
Yay!
Yayyy! 🤩
I want one, too!! Not sure if I'll be brave enough to wear it to the grocery store though. It's a scary world out there!
If at 84 I can do it, so can you. Smilingly resist!
I’m 85. Will wear the hat proudly
Fear doesn’t protect you, it only makes you vulnerable. Wear the hat, it will encourage others to be brave.

It is funny that the so-called Commander in Chief was urging them to break protocol and applaud. What an ignorant moron.
He would have to improve geometrically to be considered ignorant.
An ordinary houseplant is more knowledgeable than Old BoneSpurs and most assuredly sober, which Hogsbreath never is.
Can’t be a good time for veterans who spent 30+ years fighting, leading and managing combat operations, to now be lectured by a draft dodger who called vets losers, and platoon a leader who’s next rank was a Fox talking head.
Well put, OleFlyer.
I'm sure the generals and senior enlisted men and women are seething after their summons and lectures by Major Hegs and President Bonespurs.
I'm the same, Wis, but I'll gift the hat to hub so he can join me in my crusade to call out this crackpot administration.
Oh, for sure, Annette! I’m still buying a slew of them to support the cause and to give as very early holiday gifts! 🧢🧢
excellent idea!

Good to know!
Judith, come visit NYC and we'll do groceries together. People will smile and scatter flowers in your path. I've never worn a cap, but will don (don't say it) this one at a one-fifth turn just to be a little arrogant and carefree.
Can you consider also (although better for a TShirt)
DJT. Making Russia Great Again
Ditto!
What hat?
Make America Not Embarrassing Again.
It’s pictured at the end of Andy’s article.
Got it! Thanks!
Perfect satire!
Brilliantly funny while driving home the tragedy and preposterousness of our increasingly authoritarian regime.
You made me laugh. You made me cry.
How weird, Erik. Your ending made me think of "Makin' Whoopee." I just looked up the lyrics and discovered that I've never know what it's about.
Andy, you are one of the people who have kept me relatively sane, and provided me with hope over the last 10 years. Keep it up!
Me too. Without humor, I'd just curl up and die at this point.
Oh, Megan, it hurts to hear you say that. It's as I've been feeling, but it hurts to hear it "aloud."
I wouldn’t be surprised if a group of mental institutions are banding together to sue Andy for taking business away from them.
no... they're just buying up all of the MED BEDS Everyone will be ok ..mmmmm and the hits just keep on coming !
Andy and Jimmy - my sanity touchstones.
Never, ever did I imagine thinking the North Korean dictator could rate ahead of an American president. The world is truly upside down 🙃!
His generals even applauded for him (rather than face death by anti-aircraft fire). Trump's have yet to feel the love.
I believe Kegsbreath is not allowing for "love" in his Department of War.
Man love, but no man-love, so to speak. 🏳️🌈
for folks like Pete and Don, their interactions with females are not love either
so sadly true! Domination, yes, but certainly not love
<infectious giggle>
Trumps Kim bro should be gratified. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
TRump has Kim Jong-un beat in several areas, including being completely off his rocker. At least Kim Jong-un speaks coherently...
and he has more HAIR hahahahaha
Ah, but fat man’s generals didn’t applaud so Kim’s record is pristine!
That hat is HYSTERICAL.
Which holds more? A true bushel of apples or one of those Un hats?
Superb post today. My question is whether the "new, manly" military will allow the troops to wear makeup. Thin edge of the wedge. Next they will get all "woke" again.
and pocket squares . . . because nothing says manly like a silk square of fabric in your business suit
Annette you're killing me!
in the funniest way, I hope :)
All military uniforms will be royal blue, red tie, orange makeup, and MAGA hat if Orangey gets his way.
their less formal hat will be the white one that reads: Trump was right about everything (I threw up in my mouth a little typing that)
😝😝😝
A VERY good question?!
Apparently Kim J. is clueless about Portland's strategic importance among U.S. cities. The reasons: top secret and classified. But al the locals know.
Portland maintains up to 80% of the nation's strategic reserve of craft IPA's.
There. I said it.
Save our IPAs!
Watch out-Drumpf will be after you next!
It’s the kale.
Kale is their secret weapon.
When kale is massaged, it has a power that cannot be stopped. Good catch!
Oh this one got me good!! Especially "incandescent" !! Bought my tickets to your live show. Can't wait!!
See you there!
That kind of talk from Kim Jong Un could get DJT and Kegsbreath flirting with using a certain unmentionable weapon against North Korea...
After all the screaming from the WH recently, it's more likely that California will be the first target of such an unmentionable weapon.
Gasp! You don’t mean…the n-weapon, do you?
Shhhhh!
Always in the mark,Andy. Thank you. 😎
Actually, that's a good question Kimmie asked. What the hell is doing with Portland anyway?
Andy, please come to Portland before it completely burns to the ground. We'd crawl through the embers and ashes to see you.
He hates blue governors, but secretly admires Putin, Kim and Xi. So Portland troops are a distraction from his failure to defend Ukraine, Taiwan or the S China Sea.
rehearsing how to behave as a military with opponents who can't fight back-Hegseth's dream war!
