    What an incredible fall for US foreign affairs.

  • Household Access to Banks Improved But Could Be Driven Lower by Covid-19, FDIC Says - WSJ

    The reason for not having a bank account most frequently cited by respondents in the FDIC’s survey was inability to meet minimum balance requirements. Many of the nation’s largest banks charge monthly fees unless customers maintain several hundred dollars or more in their accounts.

    Credit Unions are the clear solution to this problem.

  • China Warns U.S. It May Detain Americans in Response to Prosecutions of Chinese Scholars - WSJ

    The Chinese message, the people said, has been blunt: The U.S. should drop prosecutions of the Chinese scholars in American courts, or Americans in China might find themselves in violation of Chinese law.

    Nice to see the Chinese government formally admit it uses hostage diplomacy to achieve its ends. Honesty is so refreshing.

  • Biden Suggests Stopping Criminals By Making Them Slip On Banana Peels - The Babylon Bee

    “Look, Jack, if a criminal is running toward you, you don’t have to shoot them,” Biden said at last night’s town hall on ABC. “All you have to do is pull out your trusty banana peel, throw it on the ground, and they’ll slip. It’s safe, humane, and hilarious.”

  • Trump Shares Babylon Bee Article, Thousands Accept Jesus Into Their Hearts - The Babylon Bee

    Big Tech attempted to censor The Bee since they are non-Christian Democrats and are very afraid of the whole world becoming Christian. Unfortunately, all the Big Tech censors actually read a Babylon Bee article and became Christians themselves.

  • Undefeated: Trump Now 2-0 Against Moderators - The Babylon Bee

    Sure enough, the polls reflected Trump’s victory, as he’s still polling at close to half the popular vote, while Savannah Guthrie has literally zero of the popular vote.

  • The FICO credit score is one of the most consumer-hostile, arrogant products on the market today.

    Companies that you don’t do business with, vacuum up your personal information for their own profit, and then assign you an incredibly consequential score with zero consideration given to employment, income, or assets.

  • Michigan Court Rescinds 14-Day Extension for Receipt of Mail Ballots - WSJ

    The Michigan appeals court said that voting rule changes shouldn’t be left to judges, and that Michigan voters have options to ensure their ballot arrives on time, citing ballot drop boxes as one example.

    Every vote should be counted.

    It is completely reckless to be changing the rules, by fiat, this close to an election.

    In the United States, we only allow adults to vote. Adults should be responsible for casting their ballot if that’s what they want to do. The deadline is widely known and there are now more ways than ever to vote. Be responsible and turn your ballot in by the deadline or don’t be counted.

    “Designing adjustments to our election integrity laws is the responsibility of our elected policy makers, not the judiciary,” the appeals panel wrote.

  • Twitter Shuts Down Entire Network To Slow Spread Of Negative Biden News - The Babylon Bee

  • Big Tech Fights Election Interference By Interfering In Election - The Babylon Bee

    From nagging people to vote and curating their own election information as the only source of legitimate voting information for their users to squashing stories that would hurt the candidates they like and locking out conservatives from their social media accounts, big tech companies are working hard to ensure that they’re the only ones who are allowed to influence the election results this year.

  • You Should Absolutely NOT Read The Disgusting, Totally False Story About Joe Biden’s Son That We’ve Linked To In This Article - The Babylon Bee

    Since you did not click on that article, you were not horrified by all the alleged revelations about H. Biden. So your life is much better for not reading the completely false story. We are glad you did not read it and share it with others. Because you are a good, upstanding citizen and would not share false smears about someone. Good job!
