Dept. of Stupid

Just When You Think It Couldn't be More Stupid 

Now come six proofs that you can have the IQ of a broken toaster and still make it to Washington D.C.

From the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation; four U.S. House Representatives from Minnesota, and two from Wisconsin, sent a letter to the Canadian Ambassador to the U.S. 

Their subject? The smoke from Canadian wildfires that were coming south and preventing people in their states from enjoying outdoor summer activities. 

Seriously. 

Since I would not be surprised in the least if you've already started snickering, sure that I'm having you on, here's the story.  It's not behind a paywall, I swear. And it notes with a perfectly straight face, the smoke from U.S. wildfires heading northward. The "Are you actually humans, or malfunctioning Chat GPT programs?" is unspoken.  

These six examples of Darwin's Law are either fully aware of the fatuous asininity exhibited in this letter and are doing it to ingratiate themselves with Dear Leader or to their own MAGA constituents ...

... or they're really that stupid. 

JFC. Once I would have laughed merrily at this. Today I'm perilously close to weeping.

Oy vey. I suppose this is what you get when people think the weather is a communist plot, and everything is someone else's fault.

That's...another whole layer of stupid.

Yeah, one of the scariest things about this shit-show is that so many of our government officials are just as stupid as their Maga followers. Truly terrifying.

...that's not an Onion letter?

Minnesota Republicans are indeed surpassingly stupid, also arrogant. Tom Emmer once ran for governor, and the only good thing I know about him is that he decided not to demand a recount when he lost. Fischbach, BLARGH.
