I Hope They Make the New Passports Spit-Resistant

THE STATE DEPARTMENT IS CLOSE TO FINALIZING a radical redesign of the U.S. passport to include a picture of President Donald Trump, The Bulwark has learned from two sources with knowledge of the redesign, including one who shared images currently under consideration.

This is what it'll look like:

Ann Telnaes has a take on it:

Is there no floor, no cellar, no limit to his narcissistic defilement of our country? Even Hitler ddn't put his face on German passports.

Since Trump had his name redacted from the Epstein files, it'll be only fair to take a Sharpie and redact his name from your passport.

    My wife and I recently renewed our passport. I will not have a Trump image defacing my next one. Either this madness will end or my next passport will have a maple leaf on it.

    Apparently it's not required, and only available in DC.
