WASHINGTON, D.C. — Viewers are perplexed by a CNN television interview featuring a deranged old lady who recently escaped from an elder care facility, angrily ranting about wanting to "deprogram" half of the nation's population.
"They must comply! Deplorables! All of ‘em!" the disheveled geriatric growled at the camera while CNN's Christiane Amanpour attempted to de-escalate the situation. "If they don't fall in line, we'll round them up and re-educate them! De-program them! Re-program them! If that doesn't work, then we'll just disappear them! Yes! Yeeeeeeessssssss! Ahahahahahahaha!"
The CNN interview team did their best to remain calm, despite the obvious threat posed by the tottering, decrepit woman. "She may be old and frail, but you can tell she's serious," said one member of the television crew. "We heard she escaped from a nursing home nearby, but you could tell she's terrorized people in the past. Chilling, dangerous stuff. Or maybe she's just completely insane, who knows."
The woman was later restrained by security, sedated by men in white scrubs, and thrown into the back of a waiting van to be returned to the confines of her nursing home. A spokesperson for the facility later made a statement to the press regarding the incident. "Sadly, this has become an ongoing problem with this particular patient," said Eduardo Guerrero. "She goes off her rocker a lot. She even has this crazy notion that she's actually the President of the United States, which we know full well never happened."
At publishing time, CNN advised everyone in the country to be on the lookout, as the crazy woman was believed to making the rounds for more TV interviews.
Love the Bee.

YIKES!!
Believe the Bee, dismiss WaPo and NYT.
Perfect! :)
After discounting his detractors, I remember he is one of the few in Washington who took actions for the judicial branch that demonstrated he seriously regarded his oath to support and defend the Constitution. He didn’t start any wars, but instead brokered the Abraham Accords bringing peace between Israel and two Middle East countries. He moved our Israel embassy to Jerusalem which was approved during Reagan’s administration. By the way, those three justices he appointed were three of six votes to overturn Roe and Casey.
As usual the Bee relies on humor for their point, but there could be a serious element. The Biden Administration published in June 2021 a document titled National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism. I noticed that among the many examples of domestic terrorism used, the government did not list the violent activities that occurred in Seattle, New York, Portland, and Minneapolis, but made repeated references to the militia movement which had its hay day in the 90’s.
I think the businesses and people impacted by those urban riots would hold contrary opinions and point to the government’s own definition. Domestic terrorism is defined as “activities that involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State; appear to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion, or to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.”
This document seems an updated, expanded, and more elegant version of Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment, which was published by DHS during the Obama presidency. It had to be withdrawn following the universal outcry from veteran organizations that perceived it targeted former armed service members as prime candidates susceptible for recruitment as domestic terrorists.
When reading it though, I was concerned with the passage saying that the potential terrorist could be identified as “those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely”. The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution says, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people”.
Who Is a “Terrorist” in Biden’s America?
