  • Biden’s Arm Falls Off While Trying To Open A Jar Of Peanut Butter - The Babylon Bee

    “Nothing to see here,” insisted a spokesperson. “Biden will be calling a lid during his 2-week recovery time and looks forward to reappearing to take charge of the country and defeat the virus!”

    This is satire, but the continuation of the Biden unavailability from the campaign is really disheartening.

    The press has been frantically buying flowers, chocolates, and jewelry for the communications team in hopes of receiving some clue as to what the heck is going on. The team responded by rolling their eyes and going to bed early due to a really bad headache.

    This is going to be a great four years!

  • In Dangerous Decision, SCOTUS Rules First Amendment Can Stay - The Babylon Bee

    In her written opinion, which she wrote in 3 minutes without consulting any notes, ACB said: “Yeah… so, the First Amendment includes freedom of religion and assembly. I asked my clerks to see whether there was a ‘virus clause’ somewhere in there and they didn’t find any. I’m just a Supreme Court Justice and I’m not allowed to remove amendments, so yeah – the First Amendment stays. Sorry guys.”

  • CDC Shuts Down Thanksgiving Travel By Carrying Out Simultaneous Attacks On All Of Nation’s Airports, Train Stations

    “We understand the temptation to travel to see loved ones this holiday season, but it’s important to understand that the dirty bombs and chemical weapons detonated at every major airport from LAX to JFK make travel inadvisable for the foreseeable future,” said Director Robert R. Redfield

  • Supreme Court Blocks Covid-19 Restrictions on Religious Services in New York - WSJ

    Chief Justice Roberts, in dissent, said there was no need to act now because, since the suit was filed, the areas involved had been reclassified as yellow zones, which were subject to a 50% occupancy limit without a numerical limit.

    This is the biggest threat to our Constitutional order. We need clarity from the Court, even if the conditions have temporality changed at the time of ruling. That way we can have clarity for next time, whether that be next week, next month, or in 50 years.

    “It is time—past time—to make plain that, while the pandemic poses many grave challenges, there is no world in which the Constitution tolerates color-coded executive edicts that reopen liquor stores and bike shops but shutter churches, synagogues, and mosques,” he wrote.

    Part of the opinion by Justice Gorsuch. He’s exactly right. This isn’t April. States have had months to come up with a workable plan for Winter, but instead are just running off of the old playbook. The “emergency” is over. More than enough time has passed for Governors and State Legislatures to work together on appropriate applications of separated powers in the current situation.
