crazy how much this bugs me now that someone pointed it out. if i worked at the white house, i would find this ugly, but not as annoying as i do now. ignorance is really bliss bc they more you learn, the more you just walk around thinking "collar gap" and "kerning is off."

huh, that's interesting. once you see the comparison, it becomes very obvious why one is better. would not have noticed it before
The font would appear to be English 111 Adagio CE, available for the highly presidential sum of just $39.75 USD

Note "The" is not kerned correctly

This kind of (seemingly) reverse corruption needs a look

1. Reform MPs praise JCB endlessly, councillors promote the firm's tech on their authorities.

2. Then the boss gives a £200,000 party donation.

To a cynical eye, it looks like an affiliate rewards scheme

Billionaire Tory donor and JCB chair Lord Bamford gives Reform UK £200,000
"Lord Bamford's latest political donation makes the point, yet again, that we need a cap on donations."

That renowned and respected lover of truth and journalistic integrity.... THE KREMLIN.... has stepped up to defend Trump in his battle against the BBC.

SO that's Farage, Netanyahu, Putin, and Boris Johnson...

If this is what happens when Reform runs a council, just imagine Farage running the country.

Care homes closed and vulnerable people abandoned.

We cannot let Trump’s America become Farage’s Britain.
