Ministry of Bad Optics

NOTICE OF CHANGE OF MANAGEMENT This account is now the Ministry of Bad Optics. No party loyalty. No manufactured outrage. No punching down. Just political hypocrisy, institutional absurdity and catastrophic own goals. The screenshots usually write the jokes.

THE ART OF THE POST · 002 “We will cut energy prices in half within 12 months.” No interpretation required. His words. His imagery. Preserved for the collection.

🚨 MINISTRY OF BAD OPTICS Translation Department The Department has been asked to translate today’s energy messaging. Unfortunately, both statements appear to have arrived at the same time. ⛽🧐 File opened.

THE ART OF THE POST • 001 “If I’m president, I will have that war settled in one day. 24 hours.” No interpretation required. His words. His imagery. Preserved for the collection.

🏛️ MINISTRY OF BAD OPTICS Department of Maps and Small Print PUBLIC INFORMATION NOTICE “Permission to operate military bases” and “ownership of the country” belong in separate filing cabinets. The US-Denmark defence agreement signed on 27 April 1951 granted extensive American military rights in agreed areas while expressly preserving Danish sovereignty. Denmark and Greenland say the newly announced agreement also preserves sovereignty. Its full terms remain unpublished, so precisely what changes still needs checking. That does not establish “exactly the same deal”. It does not establish “America owns Greenland”, either. The Ministry therefore requests that territorial transfers be supported by something more substantial than a headline. A military access agreement is not a receipt for one Greenland.

🚨 MINISTRY INQUIRY — DEPARTMENT OF COMPLETELY DESTROYED THINGS The Ministry requires assistance with a small military mystery. We have repeatedly been informed that Iran's military capabilities have been destroyed. Radar: destroyed. Missile systems: destroyed. Naval capability: devastated. New equipment around Hormuz: destroyed. Excellent. Case closed. 🫡 Unfortunately, the completely destroyed Iranians are still: • firing missiles at US forces • operating around the Strait of Hormuz • maintaining pressure on global shipping • and have somehow ended up in possession of an American underwater drone The US says the drone malfunctioned. Which may well be true. But considering @PeteHegseth has told us Iran has “no navy or air force,” the Ministry respectfully requests assistance from @PeteHegseth and @CENTCOM: How does a country with no navy, no air force and repeatedly destroyed military infrastructure keep turning up and doing military things? Either Iran has developed the world's first posthumous armed forces... ...or somebody has been getting slightly carried away with the word “destroyed.” The Ministry awaits clarification. 🫡 🚨 BAD OPTICS RATING: MEANINGFUL

🚨 OFFICIAL MINISTRY COMMUNIQUÉ 🚨 The Ministry notes with concern that the Russian Embassy has blocked us. This represents a serious deterioration in bilateral relations and leaves us with no option but to consider proportionate retaliatory measures. Options currently under review include: • Blocking them back, if anyone can work out how • Withdrawing our imaginary ambassador from Moscow • Requesting @SteveWitkoff deploy Google Translate and raise the matter urgently with his mate Vladimir Until then, the Ministry remains committed to dialogue, diplomacy and occasionally pointing out when Kremlin statements are complete bollocks. We urge all sides to avoid further escalation. 🫡

An urgent appeal from the Ministry. Your cooperation is appreciated.
