Mullin squeezes stress ball as DHS chief warns election officials of 'prison time'

https://www.irishstar.com/news/politics/mullin-squeezes-stress-ball-dhs-37445997

Mullin was squeezing a flesh-toned stress ball in his right hand as he declared that election officials could face "prison time" if they don't cooperate with the Trump administration.

When pressed on whether Mullin could guarantee that midterm elections would be "secure," he fired back that states "have to do their part."

This comes as the White House finds itself in a major panic after Trump failed to deliver 'really big news' in his primetime address.

Him squeezing a flesh-colored stress ball while warning of consequences for "election interference" couldn't be more on the nose if it were glasses.

I hope it’s a critical part of his brain, and that it happens soon

Is it still critical if there's not much useful bits left?

homes@piefed.world · 10 pts · 18d

I meant “critical to keeping him alive”

I knew the answer while I was asking it

But it just replaces one problem with another

Yeah but the latter will render you incapable of caring that it's a problem if you hit it hard enough.

SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 18d

Yes, but that also affects the problems that do matter. And it costs money.
