The New Yorkerhas capped off an insane week -- and it's only Thursday -- with preview of next week's issue. And it's absolutely brutal. Take a look:

The cover features recently fired FBI Director James Comey in a purple suit with blood dripping ever-so-slightly from his nose as he's dragged off a plane in a way that can only be called "United-style." The dragger? None other than Jeff Sessions, the U.S. attorney general who was supposed to have recused himself from anything Russia investigation related, clad in full law enforcement uniform.

Donald Trump makes an appearance as the pilot, peering over Session's head, looking somewhat bewildered.

The cover, fittingly named "Ejected," perfectly captures some of the unbelievable things going down in both Washington, D.C. and on airplanes these days.

Twitter was on board.

As the cover artist Barry Blitt said Thursday in The New Yorker, the image is "a bit of a leap." At a towering 6 foot 8 inches, Comey "probably would have been happy to give up his seat in a cramped cabin.”

Depends on how much they were offering in vouchers, especially since he's now out of a job.
