BEAVERTON, OR—Sneaker manufacturer Nike has graciously reached out to the Biden administration with an offer to house thousands of unaccompanied migrant children at their factories around the globe.
“Nike is committed to being a good corporate citizen. We are proud to assist the Biden administration by caring for these unaccompanied migrant children,” a spokesman for the company said Friday. “We have plenty of factories all around the globe with lots of room for kids. We’re here to help!”
The spokesman said that the migrant children will be fed, clothed, and educated by Nike employees until permanent homes can be found for them. In addition to a regular school curriculum, Nike said they will focus heavily on recreational activities.
“The core of our plan is our arts and crafts program,” the spokesman said. “These lucky kids will get to spend up to 18 hours each day on fun activities such as leather-working, sewing, and embroidery. What could possibly be more fun than that?”
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the move makes sense on many levels. “When it comes to looking after thousands of orphaned children from impoverished countries, nobody has more experience than Nike,” she noted.
That is not satire.
Ouch.
Teaching them a trade!
I think that any voter that helped biden get into the White House should be obligated to house at least two invaders. With 80 million of them the crisis would be over.
Will they have to give blood for the next batch of “Satan” shoes?
I fell for that until I saw the source.
Me too.
I read with big explanation in my head...Then I saw it...The BEE
Nike could send them to China to help pick cotton.
Hope they’re using the factories in China!!!
I always get the Babylon Bee and Sacramento Bee confused. ;-)
Donald Trump Jr. had a scathing critique of the athletic company Nike after it decided to pull a sneaker bearing a flag used during the American Revolution.
Instead of using that older version of the American flag, Trump Jr. suggested Nike should unveil a communist-style shoe looking similar to the hammer-and-sickle logo of the former Soviet Union.
"If the Betsy Ross Flag, the flag of the American Revolution, is too offensive for Nike to commemorate The 4th of July maybe Nike should go with this... seems to be more in line with their views," Trump Jr. tweeted on Wednesday.
His attack came as Nike faced mounting criticism over its decision to halt the release of a shoe that had the Betsy Ross flag because it could "unintentionally offend" people.

“'History!' Kaepernick wrote on Instagram Oct. 15 [2015], when he marked 50 years since the Black Panther Party was founded.
Kaepernick has posted 170 photos or videos on his Instagram account in the four years since he created it. Most of his first 128 posts were pics of him in football gear, publicity photos or shots taken with friends.
But 31 of his last 42 posts have strong social justice connotations, often featuring quotes from radical Nation of Islam leader [communist] Malcolm X, Black Panthers founder Huey Newton and cop killer Assata Shakur [aka, communist-revolutionary JoAnne Chesimard]
During a Sunday news conference about the flag flap, Kaepernick dressed in a black hat with a large, white “X” and a T-shirt that featured photos of Cuban despot Fidel Castro and Malcolm X.”
Nail, Hammer.
Satire only works when it is greater than 80% plausible
Notice on the shoe it says “Luke 10:18”
This is the scripture:
18 He replied, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.
Here it is in Aramaic:
Lightening= “Barack”
From Heaven “uh bama”
Say it out loud. In Aramaic, and you have a name for satan.
I get it that it’s the Babylon Bee, but couldn’t it work because Nike makes sneakers and people who come in illegally across the border out of sight are sneakers? Sounded funny when I started to post. Maybe not.
Chance here to hurt Nike, so I’ll take it.
Nike had been accused of using sweatshops since the 1970s but it was only in 1991, when activist Jeff Ballinger published a report detailing the low wages and poor working conditions in Nike’s Indonesian factories, that the sportswear brand came under fire.Aug 14, 2020 article
