Trump Forced To Cancel Campaign Rallies For Next Two Weeks As Time Off Request Denied By McDonald's Manager PHILADELPHIA, PA — Former President Trump has been forced to cancel all of his rallies for the next two weeks after his request to take time off was denied by Brad Norris, his manager at McDonald's. "I told Brad it was very important, that I really needed the time off," said Trump. "He just said that serving delicious golden fries in a timely fashion was also important, and told me to get my priorities in order. I have to tell, I was mad, but I really respect that Brad guy. Tough guy, very smart." With Trump stuck working at McDonald's, Trump will reportedly hold rallies in the PlayPlace during his break times.

British Police Arrest Praying Mantis For Public Prayer LONDON — British police continued to uphold law and order in the United Kingdom by arresting a praying mantis for disturbing the peace with public prayer. According to eyewitnesses, the dangerous domestic extremist was apprehended right outside of Parliament, where the insect had the audacity to fold its forelegs together in silent prayer. "Britain is safe once again," said constable Tom Smith as he affixed tiny handcuffs onto the mantis. "Soon as I seen him, I knew he was praying — knew it with my mind powers. Not on our watch, you little blighter." [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/british-police-arrest-praying-mantis-for-public-prayer

Adam Schiff Files Contradictory Statements on 'Principal' Residences in Different States [...] America's homeowners are allowed to claim just one home as their primary residence: the one they live in the majority of the year, according to federally backed lender Freddie Mac.

COWARD: Hamas Chief's Bunker Loaded With UN Food, Millions in Cash, Weapons and More The one constant in the entire "Islamist terrorist" issue is that their leaders 1) never place themselves in any direct danger, although sometimes danger in the form of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) manages to find them anyway, and 2) they generally live in wealth and luxury while their fighters and the people forced to live in areas they control are in misery. The latest example? The recently-unalived Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar, whose bunker was loaded with United Nations rations, millions in cash, weapons, and much more.

Some really cool short videos here. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trump Trolls Kamala With Epic Visit to McDonald's For a while now, Donald Trump has said he'd work a shift at McDonald's. The move was meant to troll Kamala Harris, who claimed she worked at the fast-food chain in the early 1980s. Honestly, I didn't think Trump's plan was the best approach. Sure, I doubt Harris ever worked at McDonald's, but in the bigger picture, with so much at stake in this election, is it really that important? Nothing about Harris feels authentic, and while there's no proof she did work there, there's no way to prove she didn't either. Last week, I said that Trump would have been better off focusing his rhetoric on exposing Harris's overall lack of genuineness rather than zeroing in on her McDonald's story. While his visit may be clever trolling, it doesn't speak to the issues that really matter to most Americans. Today, after seeing Trump work the fryer and the drive-thru at a McDonald's in Feasterville-Trevose, which is in Bucks County, northeast of Philadelphia, which happens to be a swing county, I actually think the event worked masterfully for him.

This is an easy-reading, thorough analysis of what's going on with Kommie's campaign and what it probably means. Can you find anything to object to? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Are Voters Asking The "Political Toast" Question About Harris And Her Campaign? Much in the manner of the most famous modern crash-and-burn campaigns – George McGovern in 1972 and Michael Dukakis in 1988 – the signs are there that voters are starting to ask about Kamala Harris the political "toast" or "doom" question from which no presidential campaign can recover: "If she can't even run a campaign, how can she run the country?" The steady pattern since early September of questionable decisions, sudden turnabouts and self-induced controversies that have plagued the Harris campaign reached last week exactly the sort of crescendo seen at a similar point in the McGovern and Dukakis efforts: A stream of negative headlines from continuing revelations about the past record of the candidate and her running mate, attempts at clever tactical moves that become strategic debacles, the release of TV ads or videos that anyone outside the campaign finds incomprehensible or even mildly ridiculous, public appearances by the candidate and the campaign's most prominent surrogates that draw backlash and worsen the problem they are supposed to fix, growing complaints by party professionals and operatives about campaign oversight or ineptitude, down-ballot candidates out abandoning the national ticket, and a campaign structure struggling to process disturbing developments or disappointing news but even when it does coming up with solutions that seem more improvised exercises in self-therapy than effective political fixes. This sort of thing has been seen before and with serious consequences. [...] https://amac.us/newsline/elections/are-voters-asking-the-political-toast-question-about-harris-and-her-campaign/

These are cute little critters.

Officials at the Wrocław Zoo in the southwestern Polish city of Wroclaw said the tigers — a critically endangered species whose numbers have dwindled to around 400 in the wild — were born on July 22. But the zoo chose not to go public with the news until they could grow a bit, gain some strength and be vaccinated, zoo spokesperson Weronika Łysek said.

On one of Mrs. T-B.'s earlier visits back to Ecu, she left before I did, and I was to follow. Before I left, she called and said, "Can you go to Sally Beauty Supply and buy me... a ponytail? [hurt tone] Mine got damaged." I entered SBS and stood uncertainly in the entrance, feeling very much out of place. The salesgirl asked how she could help, and I said, with bewilderment, "Uh, can you please direct me to the Ponytail Department?" She pointed me to a pegboard on the wall. Fortunately, Mrs. T-B. had given me the precise name and stock number of the desired ponytail, or I'd have remained lost. I made the purchase, exited, and determined that I had a mild case of PTSD. I will never voluntarily enter a place like that by myself again.

As long as one doesn't pig out on them, too?

The Daily Beast reported his McDonalds' appearance as "further signs of being unhinged" (paraphrase) and said that he had claimed "without evidence" that Kommie Harris had never worked at a McDonalds.

Can you imagine if that lightweight had been nominated and elected President?

Yee-HAAAAA! [Note to T-B.'s self: Jokes worked again... jokes worked again... ]

This can be what tips the scales in your favor. When I went to add the new Mrs. T-B. (via K-1), the ladies at my bank had to pull some strings, but they put in the effort. Having a Social Security Number is pretty important.

The call wouldn't necessarily be from the 202 area code. Maybe someone here can comment if calls come from masked numbers. They certainly won't close your case unless you fail to respond to an RFE. If you're concerned, contact the Immigration Liaison in your Congressman's office. He or she can inquire as to the status of your case. You'll have a simple form to fill out, giving the office permission to inquire on your behalf.

Trump Releases Skull Measurements From Phrenology Exam PALM BEACH, FL—Claiming he had the most "beautiful and perfect" cranial structure that his physician had ever seen, former President Donald Trump reportedly took to Truth Social this week to release the skull measurements from his latest phrenology exam.

Bret Baier Asks Harris To Prove She Moving Forward By Handing Her Baseball Bat, Wheeling Out Caged Biden WASHINGTON—Offering the vice president a chance to gain the trust of voters skeptical about whether her policies would actually differ from those of the current administration, Fox News host Bret Baier reportedly challenged Kamala Harris Wednesday to prove she was moving forward by handing her a baseball bat and wheeling out a caged President Biden. "Ma'am, you claim your presidency would not simply be a continuation of the past four years, so why don't you just show that right here, right now?" said Baier, who [...] https://theonion.com/bret-baier-asks-harris-to-prove-she-moving-forward-by-handing-her-baseball-bat-wheeling-out-caged-biden/
