The CIA burst onto Instagram with an "I Spy" photo that was trolled the second it went live.


It was a pretty glorious moment.

Though you can't fault the CIA for trying to cut through its super-serious image and have a little fun with its official social media account.

If you've ever played "I Spy," you know how this goes. But one of the world's most recognizable intelligence (read: spying) agencies went ahead and posted a picture of a desk topped with stereotypical spy agency materials such as a wig, headphones, maps, documents, badges and clocks.

We spy a government agency with something resembling a sense of humor.

But does that desk really look like the desk of someone who works at the CIA? Instagram didn't think so.

It certainly looks that way.

Yeah, what's up with that?

So are we... we think.

Yeah, good luck with that!

Minnesota is surely more exciting than this desk!

Step up your game, CIA.

Pack it all up, boys. We're going home.

Clean it up!

Savage.

The CIA hasn't responded to any of these observations, presumably because it already figured out where all these people live and is totally having the last laugh.

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had a splendid response after South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace attempted to claim that his support for transgender women would bar him from recognizing fraud in his state.

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
