Hylactor@sopuli.xyzto politics @lemmy.world•House Republicans ‘so goddamn sick of being asked’ about Trump’s Epstein card301·14 days agoTo be fair, it seems more like a rich asshole thing, than a political affiliation thing strictly speaking, but there definitely seems to be a strong Republican bias to the perpetrators. I mean, I think even Donald was technically a Democrat during the birthday card period unless I’m mistaken.
Edit:
Republican (1987–1999): Trump first registered as a Republican in 1987.
Reform Party (1999–2001): In 1999, he left the Republican Party and joined the Reform Party, even forming an exploratory committee for a potential presidential run in 2000.
Democrat (2001–2009): He changed his registration to Democrat in 2001.
Republican (2009–2011): He switched back to the Republican Party in 2009.
Unaffiliated (2011–2012): Trump briefly registered with no political party in 2011.
Republican (2012–present): He rejoined the Republican Party in 2012, ahead of the 2012 presidential primary, and has remained a Republican since.
The card is from 2003, so during his Democrat phase. Though it’s pretty clear the man has no actual actual convictions (so to speak) and just does whatever he feels is personally adventageous at any given moment.
MOULTON, Ala. – A fake mug shot posted by the Moulton city police department has garnered a lot of social media attention.
“I was very surprised. I think we are up to 6,000 shares,” said Officer Russell Graham.
Russell Graham is a Moulton City Police officer.
On Tuesday, he posted this photo along with other mug shots on the police department’s Facebook page.
“It just looked humorous to me, there were several that I went through and I said there’s our guy,” explained Officer Graham.
Graham wrote on the photo’s caption that “Barry Larry Terry” was arrested on charges of unlawful possession of a wild raccoon and no headlamp on bicycle.
“I can’t tell you where it came from I was just like I was just like ‘That looks like a Barry Larry Terry.'”
Graham says the other mug shots he posted were real, but this one was just a joke.
But what’s not entirely satire about the post, “There’s actually a law possession of wild animals. I don’t think it specifically says wild raccoon, but I just added that in there and here we are.”
Graham says the post was intended humanize the badge. He says he’s seen other law enforcement Facebook pages do similar posts.
“Across the world law enforcement officers are seen in a bad light. They’re seen as robots so to speak, supposed to be serious. We were trying to project a little humor, and hopefully build a little rapport with the citizens that come across the page,” Graham explained.
The photo has been taken off the Facebook page, but the viral idea isn’t going away so easily.
A Facebook user-created a page called “Free Barry Larry Terry” that is bringing voice to the convict and his furry friend.
One of the posts on the new page says “Can somebody come down here to the city jail. Put $5 on a my books and brang me some smokes.”
Reddit users also found the mug shot, and Mr. Terry is catching a lot of attention there.
The department recently posted that they now have more likes than the city’s population.
ACAB.

Could be photo shop? The hands come up from out of frame, so it could be a normal picture of john rambo with a bandana and gang sign hands just dropped on top. It does have that soap opera foggy quality though so you’re probably right that its AI.

Yeah, the thing about this asshole is that he has no sense of humor. There’s no way he doesn’t mean it. And the fact that he proudly displays this in the fucking whitehouse is most troubling indeed. Best case scenario, he means one of his idiot sons, but let’s be real about who we’re dealing with here.

For what it’s worth, it looks more like someone tiled on top of tile for some reason? Like under the big square is the hexagonal, and the big tiles are cracking along the low spots of the tiles below.
