So predatory, stealthy until they strike, pretty brainless, mostly instinct driven, fierce to brutal, dangerous, opportunistic to the point they would eat their own kind if convenient, unpredictable and most importantly - famously resistant to change or growth. Seems oddly self aware...

They did say they'd pay so presumably there'd be some production value to the affair. I'm seeing a Roman theme, along the lines of "Christians to the lions".

Photo made with AI, and that's not Alligator Intelligence.

Still. Both Lupo and I would pay money to see them try and put a hat on a gator.

So the lizard people (republicans) are finally going to shed their 'human' skin and reveal themselves?

Wouldn't work because alligators brains are too big to work for ICE.
