I admit I got caught by the headline.

Good one, BB.

Years ago I observed that Monty Python skits were meant to be comedy, not a How To Run the World.

Now there’s very little lag time between satire and Left wing stupidity.

It’s funny... I saw the title of the thread and thought, “Figures” and kept scrolling. I came back to it to read it and only then realized it was from the Bee.

We live in some darned turbulent times.

Did the people of Michigan elect yet another Canadian liberal as governor?

Like Dan Rather once said, “It’s fake, but accurate.”

That’s how the Bill of Rights came about. There was nothing to protect us from a tyrannical government.

The DNC is in so much trouble.
A presidential candidate who gets lost in his basement and a VP who has never read the Constitution.

I started reading this and was about 3 sentences in before I thought to check the source. Babylon Bee is so deft at writing articles that walk that fine line between satire and “that doesn’t surprise me”.

” your WISE RULERS “ ? OMG, this woman is evil. I didn’t know we had “rulers” in America. And “wise”? She needs to go.
