Here's a little secret for you: all words are 'made up'.

Shakespeare alone accounts for more than 4% of the English words.

Lady looks like she just blew in on the west wind with her flying monkeys in tow, and she's claiming the left are the ones trying to destroy civil order.

Those specific glasses aren't doing her any favors. Her smile is creepy and overwrought, and then the curvature of the glasses comes in and massively accentuates how fucking sinister her eyebrows look. It's like someone subtly shopped it to make her look nefarious, except they didn't.

Those glasses are the reason I never pick out my own frames. I ask the professional what works best with my facial structure for both shape and color.

And that's genuinely the most sane headshot they could have chosen?

It's her official portrait, which for the purposes of news publications means it's a) easy because it's in the public domain, b) high-quality, c) uncontroversial, and d) often the first thing you see searching for an image (e.g. it's the infobox image on Wikipedia, and the image in this article is sourced to Wikimedia Commons).
If by "they" you mean the people taking the official portrait, then boy, fuck, you got me.

That is 1000% what they meant.
That photo is the definition of insane.

Yeah, the one with her jaw unhinged, sucking the grey matter from a goat was a bit forced. At least she looks like a professional unfathomable abomination in this shot.

Fuck is wrong with her face? She looks like she just ate a fetus.

Made up word. So after biological names, conservatives are casually inventing biological words, I guess.

This is who beat Liz Cheney... She also eats lipstick direct from the tube.
