  1. Coors Announces It's Ditching Everything DEI and Woke After Threatened With Exposure [...] Nobody wants to become the next Bud Light. Coors is the latest in the line of corporations slamming it in reverse after the one-man crusade being waged by Robby Starbuck turned its sights on the beer distribution company.

  2. The Trials and Tribulations of Traveling 500 Miles in an EV in One Day [...] I just don't get electric cars. Thanks to Julie Myhre-Nunes of Nerdwallet, I now understand why so many people are opposed to buying them. She drove a Chevy Volt from San Jose to Las Vegas, a 500-mile trip. Google Maps says the trip should take about 8 hours. Ms. Myhre-Nunes's trip took 11.5 hours. (More about that below.) There may be a lot of people on the fence about purchasing an EV but I'm not one of them. I would love to get one if they can ever match a gas-powered car in performance, range, and style (the Tesla is pretty snazzy). But the timeline looks to be about 10 years before they can solve some of the most pressing problems with EVs that make driving one an exercise in blood pressure control. First, [...] https://pjmedia.com/rick-moran/2024/09/03/the-trials-and-tribulations-of-traveling-500-miles-in-an-ev-n4932210
  3. Scintillating Tuesday repartee, yawn man. ----- Thrilling Tuesday report, see man: All curbsided stuff was collected by noon, efficiency man. Lunch was Subway* after 2 highly successful errands, ingest we man. *WUOC, financially savvy we man A siesta was taken thereafter, blessedly uninterrupted zzz man.

  4. It's one part of taking action instead of the litany of "can't, don't, won't." No one can say which specific elements of "taking action" will help or not -- being proactive, instead of wallowing in inaction, is what's important.
  5. Josh, ICE has its hands full with large cases. In instances such as yours, the FDNS Officer at your local USCIS office would be the appropriate individual to receive information about individual fraud, potential or actual. You would need to compile all evidence -- more than enough to convince a dubious stranger (FDNS officer) -- and hand it over, optimally in person and in dispassionate fashion. The kicker surrounding this is that you will never hear of action (not) taken, so closure will elude you. Follow the advice regarding divorce and protecting yourself, with our sympathy and best wishes.

  8. Aides Beg J.D. Vance To Stop Carrying Model Of Woman's Pelvis While Meeting Voters LEXINGTON, KY—Stating that the anatomical facsimile of the female groin was having the opposite of the vice presidential candidate's intended effect, aides begged J.D. Vance on Monday to stop carrying around a model of a woman's pelvis while meeting with voters. "I can't stress enough how much people don't like it when you [...] https://theonion.com/aides-beg-j-d-vance-to-stop-carrying-model-of-womans-pelvis-while-meeting-voters/
  9. Panicked Tim Walz Trapped In Football Metaphor For Third Consecutive Day SAVANNAH, GA—His voice growing increasingly hoarse as he entered his 72nd hour of contextualizing the 2024 campaign through sports, vice presidential candidate Tim Walz reportedly panicked Monday while trapped inside a football metaphor for the third consecutive day. "It's the fourth quarter, we're down by a field goal, but we're on offense, we're driving to the end zone, and, boy, do we have the right team to win this—please, help me, help me," Walz reportedly said in a plea to a baffled swing voter, tears spilling from the Minnesota governor's eyes as [...] https://theonion.com/panicked-tim-walz-trapped-in-football-metaphor-for-third-consecutive-day/

Man Who Ate Wings For Dinner Forced To Sit On Towel For Car Ride Home BALTIMORE—Crossing his arms in frustration at the humiliating requirement, Danny Combes, a local man who had chicken wings for dinner at Shannon's Pub and Grille, was forced to sit on a large beach towel for the whole car ride home, sources confirmed Wednesday.

  12. Grandmother Hamster Overly Critical Of Way Daughter Eats Babies WICHITA, KS—In a judgmental appraisal of her daughter's parenting techniques only moments after she gave birth, an area grandmother hamster was reportedly overly critical Friday of the way her daughter ate her babies.

  13. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Woman Wastes Free Monthly Cincinnati.com Article On Story About High School Golf Team NORWOOD, OH—Kicking herself as the words "1 free article(s) remaining" hovered at the bottom of her screen, local woman Margaret Cross stated Wednesday that she had wasted a free monthly Cincinnati.com article on a story about a high school golf team. "I just got pulled in because I know my cousin's kid plays for St. Ursula, and now, because of that one absentminded click, there are all kinds of fun Cincinnati happenings I won't be able to read about," said Cross, who acknowledged [...] https://theonion.com/woman-wastes-free-monthly-cincinnati-com-article-on-story-about-high-school-golf-team/

"She steps off the plane I forked over 900 bucks for and suddenly she thinks she's too good for a pre-made chocolate sheet cake?" said Foster, who complained that for someone who has been in the country less than 48 hours, she suddenly has a lot of opinions on the proper decor and food needed for a customary American wedding.

  18. Source Says Kamala Was Promoted At McDonald's After Having Affair With Mayor McCheese U.S. — After skeptics questioned Kamala Harris's claim that she once worked at Mcdonald's, researchers have found evidence of her employment — and rapid promotion to shift manager — after a sordid affair with Mayor McCheese. "It's now clear how Kamala was able to rise through the ranks from a lowly crew member at the fry station to running the entire restaurant in spite of her glaring incompetence," said Journalist Chet Cruggs, who broke the story. "This seems to be Harris's modus operandi at every place she has worked." https://babylonbee.com/news/source-says-kamala-was-promoted-at-mcdonalds-after-having-affair-with-mayor-mccheese
  19. Las Vegas Teen Converts to Islam, and Guess What He Did Next Las Vegas' KLAS reported Thursday that Joshua Robles, 16, has been "accused of plotting an ISIS-inspired terror attack." After Robles was arrested last November, prosecutors considered him to be so dangerous that they asked that his bail be set at a million dollars; Las Vegas Justice Court Pro Temp Judge Lauren Diefenbach, however, instead decided to set it at $10,000, "adding should Robles post bail, he would be placed on house arrest with electronic monitoring." Oh. That'll fix everything. [...] https://pjmedia.com/robert-spencer/2024/09/02/las-vegas-teen-converts-to-islam-and-guess-what-he-did-next-n4932185
  20. We'd all better pray that no one in the world takes advantage of this before Trump takes office. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Biden Goes Full-On Incoherent in Pittsburgh, What He Says About Kamala Is Incredible Joe Biden is back before the cameras. In some ways, it would be better if he stayed on vacation, as he may do less damage then when he's actually before the cameras and talking. How wrong it is that the Democrats have put us in that position with him, by not being honest about his condition. Kamala Harris is chief among those who has not been honest with the American people about Biden's issues. After making bizarre comments before and after a meeting in the Situation Room about the situation in Israel, Biden went with Harris to Pittsburgh for a campaign event with union people.
