Trump Orders Visa Review Of Anyone With One Of Those Squiggly Line N's In Their Name WASHINGTON, D.C. — As part of the administration's ongoing effort to remove illegal immigrants, President Trump has ordered the visa status reviewed of anyone with one of those weird "squiggly line n's" in their name. In addition to squiggly line n's, Trump has also ordered a visa review for all people whose names have more than three consonants or are just really hard to pronounce. "We're going to find all the people who aren't supposed to be here, starting with the 'squiggly n' people," said Trump. "You know the little squiggle they draw over the 'n', it's so funny looking, everyone says so.

Getting Out Of Hand? Newsom Orders Aide To Shoot Off His Ear SACRAMENTO, CA — Sources close to Gavin Newsom say that the governor's Trump imitations may be getting a little out of hand after Newsom ordered an aide to shoot off part of his ear. Longtime Newsom aide Jackson Price felt things were starting to get weird after the governor handed him a rifle and asked him to aim for his earlobe. "It's getting a little bizarre now," said Price. "It was kind of a funny joke when Newsom started posting in all caps. We all laughed off the new tan and sudden McDonald's obsession.

Calm down, Charles... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Meet Hank, The Autistic Chimpanzee Who Runs Gavin Newsom's X Account SAN DIEGO, CA — In a small corner of the San Diego Zoo's chimpanzee exhibit lies a modest laptop computer that an autistic chimp named Hank uses to run Governor Gavin Newsom's X account. Hank has worked for Newsom for years, overseeing numerous strategic shifts in the governor's messaging, including suddenly posting in all caps or picking fights with popular figures like Donald Trump because he perceives them as threatening his status as the alpha ape. All of Hank's hard work recently paid off when Newsom promoted Hank to running all of his social media accounts full time. "I don't think of myself as special. I'm like any other chimp," said Hank. "I like bananas and throwing poo at people [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/meet-hank-the-autistic-chimpanzee-who-runs-gavin-newsoms-x-account

Dems Say Mail-In Ballot Ban Will Place Undue Hardship On Dead Voters WASHINGTON, D.C. — As President Donald Trump continues to hint at taking action to require in-person voting in U.S. elections, Democratic leaders warned that a mail-in ballot ban would place undue hardship on dead voters. Ever the champions of the rights of deceased voters, Democrats alleged that any move to ban mail-in ballots would disenfranchise millions of dead people who vote Democrat in every American election. "We can't allow President Trump to alienate our dead voters like this," said Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. "Our late supporters are vital to the success of any Democratic campaign.

Metropolis Sues Superman For Reducing Crime METROPOLIS — A new scandal threatened to arise between governing officials and Earth's greatest superhero, as Metropolis sued Superman for being far too effective in reducing crime in the city. City leaders were outraged that the Last Son of Krypton had the audacity to take it upon himself to stop criminals in the middle of committing their brazen acts of lawlessness and protect the innocent citizens who were put in harm's way. "This is literal fascism. Restoring law, order, and safety will never be acceptable here," said Metropolis Mayor Bradford Sackett.

Ecu never had gangs before these clowns popped up. Good of the U.S. to acknowledge their presence. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trump, Rubio Expand War on Narco-Terrorists Into Ecuador Secretary of State Marco Rubio wrapped up his travels to Latin America on Thursday with a press conference in Ecuador, alongside Ecuadorian Foreign Minister Gabriela Sommerfeld. As he has done all week, Rubio made it clear that the Donald Trump administration is ramping up the war on narco-terrorists and not planning to let up anytime soon.

Geez...

We are late again (what is happening to us?!) with our Wednesday Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== THE CLERGYMEN AND THE BEAR A priest, a minister, and a rabbi decided to see who was best at his job. They each went into the woods, found a bear, and attempted to convert it. Later, they got together. The priest said, "When I found the bear, I read to him from the Catechism and sprinkled him with holy water. Next week is his First Communion." The minister said, "I found a bear by the stream and preached God's holy word. The bear was so mesmerized that he let me baptize him." They both looked down at the rabbi, who was wrapped almost head-to-toe in a body cast. "In retrospect," he sighed, "maybe I shouldn't have started with the circumcision."

The US Military Sinks a Venezuelan Drug Runner (Updated) During Tuesday's press conference, President Trump not only dispelled rumors that he was dead (see Trump Blows Up Democrat Conspiracies About His Health, Peter Doocy Provides the Hilarious Capper – RedState), but used the occasion to announce that the U.S. military had destroyed a drug-running boat from Venezuela in the Caribbean.

Double standards. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trump-Hating Judge Makes Stunning Ruling in the Case of a Woman Who Wants to Murder Trump We know the left hates President Donald Trump. We know the left wants Trump out of the Oval Office. And yes, we know that the left wants Trump dead: just look at leftists' hysterical glee over the completely unfounded rumors that the president had passed away this past week, when he didn't make any public appearances for a few days. On Tuesday, a notorious Trump-hating judge helped remove any lingering doubts that all too many leftists want to see Trump die in office when he ordered a woman who wants to murder Trump to be freed from custody. What could possibly go wrong? It all started back in mid-August, when Secret Service agents in New York questioned a woman named Nathalie Rose Jones over statements she had made threatening the president.

Thoughts on litter, used here in a Nature's Miracle electronic box: 1. The two best are Paws and Paws & Claws, the latter available at Tractor Supply Co. 2. If you're in Texas, HEB store-brand litter is also acceptable and reasonably priced. 3. "Lightweight" litter is preferable, and I like scented. The very worst litter is Everclean -- it turns completely into slimy mud that absolutely never dries. I see no reason to overspend on fancy name-brand litters.

Agreed -- interesting, Mozillaman.

Thrilling Tuesday report, see man: Our hip felt fine when we awoke, wonderful fizzicle therapy man. One of Mama T-B.'s banks wanted action against account dormancy, standard man. Mama T-B. keeps a pittance there purely to maintain the safety-deposit box, necessary man. We went in with the bank's form, signed by us as power of attorney man. We viewed this also as a chance to change the address to ours, Mama T-B.'s instructions man. Bank lady found us as authorized to use the deposit box but not PoA, just POD we man. She said that Mama T-B. would have to appear personally to sign/authorize the change, si man. We explained that Mama T-B. was incapacitated and can't even sign her name, si man. Bank lady said that there was no other option, no man. "Deposit $1 for account activity and come back when she dies, si man," kiss our buttocks she man. We have not thought highly of this bank in the past and think even less of it now, go to hell they man man. We arrived at Mama T-B.'s bedside in time to feed her lunch, si man. We did not tell her about the bank debacle, no upset senior she man we man man. We insisted that Mama T-B. take "just one more" spoonful of all items, si man. At the end, she said, "This is the best I've eaten since I've been here, si man," si man. We consumed the little that was left over, ingest we man. A new medicine has seemed to calm Mama T-B.'s tremors and appallingly restless legs, some hope man. Mama T-B. lectured us about several items, abide it without backtalk we man. She told us to buy her a new laundry basket, current one too small according to staff man. She also spent a long time telling us that we should consider reuniting with ex-Mrs.-T-B., si man. She did the same with ex-Mrs.-T-B. yesterday, si man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. apparently listened intently, reportedly man. We know that ex-Mrs.-T-B. is still mad at, and probably on the rebound from, the Rojo, si man. We aren't going to do or consider anything for quite some time, no and no man. Our mind is on other things and we're not even cavorting with the rubias, no man. Breakfast/lunch/din-din was at "the" Chinese buffet, calm down Bro G man. We were seated on the other side with a different waitress, OK except too far from the buffet man. We consumed Many (2+2) plates of mostly beef/chicken, ingest we man. On the way to pay, we saw one of "the" waitresses, calm down Bro G man. She was happy to see us but is just as plain-looking and scrawny as ever, not a prospect man. We then went to Costco Business Center, Many (2+2) needed items man. Just inside, we spotted a giant tub, perfect for Mama T-B.'s laundry and on sale too man. We got this along with our Many (2+2) needed items, serendipity man. For first time ever, we had to spend Many minutes at checkout, Many business owners up-stocking man. Serviced demanding miu at the casa, service miu we man. Siesta was interrupted at its start by a call from Uncle T-B., call senior he man we man. Siesta was interrupted at its end by a call from Mama T-B., call senior she man we man. Siesta was still rather effective, decent zzz we man man. Miu then wanted interaction, needy miu man. We didn't completely comply, going to change our responsiveness after mam ma'am's reminder we man. Readied several rescued items for likely visit from buyer on Wednesday, ready we man. Saw mam ma'am's post above and read pet-loss poems, sober reminder to cherish living mius man. Ruminated on why we can euthanize mius but not suffering humans who have zero quality of life, sigh man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. Possible sales caucus in late morning, q.v. above man. Then visit Mama T-B. to feed her lunch, intend we man. Then retrieve delayed Rx for Uncle T-B., if finally ready man. And that was/is our thrilling Tuesday, report we man.
