HOMELAND SECURITY EDITION FUGGLER? MAKE IT HAPPEN, ZURU

Ugly monsters were supposed to be fictional, the kind you laugh at because they’re stuffed with fake fur, crooked eyes, and intentionally ridiculous teeth. They weren’t meant to be real people with real power, real policies, and real consequences.
