WASHINGTON, D.C. — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene shocked no one this week by admitting voting blindly for a massive tax and spending bill she never read. The bill, dubbed “Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill,” reportedly included provisions so long and complex, Greene concluded it was “longer than the Bible and definitely less entertaining.” The bill’s 900+ pages included a controversial clause preventing states from regulating artificial intelligence for 10 years—a detail Greene claimed she missed due to “insufficient emoji use.” No Time to Read, Too Busy Owning the Libs “I’m a very busy woman,” Greene explained. “Do you know how long…

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a groundbreaking move the United States Congress declares permanent recess, citing decades of legislative stagnation, plummeting public trust, and “general disinterest in effort.” The final vote tally? 518–6, with the six dissenters later admitting they thought “permanent recess” meant installing a playground on the Capitol lawn. “This is about honesty,” said House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (D-LA), lounging in an Adirondack chair while sipping sparkling water from a congressional commemorative tumbler. “We’ve been pretending to work for years. Now we’re simply aligning our schedule with our output.” A Unified Vision of Utter Inactivity Senate Minority Leader…

Mark Andrews (R-ND), while whispering, “but mostly it is.”Andrews praised the ruling for “restoring dignity to the immigration system” while standing in front of a Chick-fil-A…

Washington, DC – A new Department of Energy Study claims converting the U.S. power grid entirely to solar energy could reduce global warming—by literally “pulling heat out of the atmosphere.” The plan, which sounds like it was written during a heatstroke, has baffled scientists, thrilled environmentalists, and sent oil lobbyists into full tantrum mode. According to the report, replacing fossil fuel energy sources with solar panels will not only generate power, but also create a national sunshade. Politicians jumped on the opportunity to both deny and support climate change at the same time. Politicians Embrace Scientific Illiteracy “Look, I’m not…

Flagstaff, AZ – A tourist falls into the Grand Canyon for the eleventh time this year, reigniting a national debate no one asked for. The latest victim, a Japanese man attempting a “sky-edge selfie,” slipped while backing up for a shot he planned to caption “#livingontheedge.” Instead, he became the latest person to demonstrate gravity’s undefeated streak. Selfies, Safety, and the Social Media Cliff Park officials say this has become a trend among overconfident influencers. The Grand Canyon’s beauty remains unmatched—but so does its ability to separate fools from solid footing. “This is becoming a real problem,” said Grand Canyon…

Washington, D.C. – In a move that has sparked bipartisan jaw-drops—though only one side seems capable of actual outrage—Qatar has donated a fully customized private jet to President Donald Trump, allegedly to serve as his “temporary Air Force One” during rallies, Mar-a-Lago flyovers, and impromptu McDonald’s runs. The plane, dubbed “The MAGAliner”, is equipped with gold-plated seat belts, a Diet Coke fountain, and a miniature golf course shaped like Trump’s electoral map from 2024. The Qatari royal family insists the gift is “a token of deep friendship,” while critics note it’s more likely a strategic investment in one of the…
