The dark side of the moon has long been the subject of myth and speculation. What mysteries lie beyond the known lunar surface in that dark realm beyond our telescopes? Now, The Babylon Bee can reveal what the crew of the Artemis II mission discovered on the other side of the moon: Rocks: Lots and lots of rocks. A Starbucks: Man, they really are everywhere. 1,000,000,000 Mylar birthday balloons: So that's where they all end up. A Somali daycare: The owner says it has a huge client base and is totally legit. A Shohei Ohtani home run ball: Not...

They should have stuck to chicken breasts. Eight Chick-fil-A staffers say they’ve been fired for jiggling their chests for a TikTok video seen by more than 7 million people — including their bosses. The uniformed workers took it in turns to shake their chests to a mashup of “Wanna Mingle x Top of the Cars” in a clip shared last month, including a male staffer who also turned around to twerk. Their cheeky dance moves for the viral trend, under the title “my CFA crew better than yours,” quickly racked up nearly 7.5 million views — but also got the...

Retired four-star Gen. Jack Keane expressed doubt that the Iran ceasefire will hold, arguing Tehran is exploiting the pause to delay and ease pressure while testing whether the U.S. has "the stomach" to restart the fight. "I am skeptical about where we’re heading with the Iranians because I flat don’t trust them, and I don't like taking the pressure off them by going to a ceasefire, which is what they want in any event to force the United States to stop the war," Keane said Tuesday on "Jesse Watters Primetime." "We have done that, admittedly only temporarily, but we've got...

RINGGOLD, GA — Republican congressional candidate Clay Fuller just gave House Speaker Mike Johnson a little bit of breathing room as the GOP clings to a razor-thin majority in Congress. Fuller, who was backed by President Donald Trump, on Tuesday defeated Democrat Shawn Harris in a special election to fill the empty U.S. House seat in Georgia's solidly red 14th Congressional District, the Associated Press reported. "He was the difference maker," Fuller told Fox News Digital following his victory, as he pointed to Trump. "He was the key factor in us winning…. Our results prove that President Trump means a...

It appears that so many "elites" are making statements and publishing their financial moves (Bershire Hathaway admitting they're sittingon 400 billion in cash) in an effort to get retail customers (general public) to sell share or move their 401k accounts to cash (sell out) in order to get the market to crash. They have probably already shorted most everything and are hoping to make big bucks on the selloff. It doesn't look like it's working. So many financial pundits are screaming we're going to have a crash that the roar is deafining. However, the markets are still holding up and...

National Beer Day commemorates the passage of the Cullen-Harrison Act, which allowed Americans to legally purchase beer and wine, capped at 3.2% by weight, for the first time since Prohibition began. The legislation took effect April 7, 1933, and set the stage for the eventual repeal of the 18th Amendment later that year, on Dec. 5, 1933.National Beer Day is a festive celebration of brewing heritage, craft beer culture, and the freedom to raise a glass with friends and family.

Iran’s bloodthirsty mullahs are now openly turning their own citizens, including children and young people, into human shields around the regime’s critical power plants and key infrastructure sites. As The Gateway Pundit reported just hours ago, Iran’s Deputy Minister for Youth Affairs and Secretary of the Supreme Youth Council, Alireza Rahimi, has brazenly called on “young people, athletes, artists, students and professors” to gather around the nation’s power plants at 2 p.m. local time today. They’re dubbing it the “Iran’s Youth Human Chain for a Bright Future.” Reports flooding in confirm Iranians are already gathering en masse around key sites....

So-called ‘interfaith’ chapel at airports are essentially mini-mosques. There was not a single cross in two chapels I visited. On Palm Sunday, I was traveling through Dallas-Fort Worth Airport (DFW) on my way home from CPAC 2026 and, having gone through security very early, I had a few hours to spare inside the terminal (thanks, Congress). So, I did what I usually do when I have extra time in airports — I looked for the chapel. Airport chapels have long been a curiosity of mine, ever since I discovered they exist. I used to have terrible flying anxiety, and I...

The FBI says your Wi-Fi network could be a target for hackers. Here's how to protect yourself. *snip* The FBI bulletin specifically named older Linksys routers that are no longer receiving software patches or security updates.

In a historic late night shakeup, CBS is replacing Stephen Colbert’s "Late Show" with Byron Allen’s "Comics Unleashed." CBS announced in July that it had canceled "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and that it would officially go off the air in May 2026 after a more than 10-year run. Liberal critics have accused CBS and Paramount of ending the show to appease President Donald Trump and receive approval for a long-planned merger between Paramount Global and Skydance Media. What followed was a drawn-out drama between Colbert and his network that will finally come to an end this spring. According...

They are now the safest country in Europe, which is something that nobody expected because they are unapologetic about the fact that they will put their citizens first before any kind of online manipulation, EU rhetoric that tries to make them feel bad and push them to taking in refugees that just end up destroying their country. Of course, when I say they, I am referring to Poland, which surprise, surprise, has turned out to be a bastion of freedom and peacefulness against this takeover that we're seeing across Europe. But not only are they doing a great job at...

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s wife Jennifer Siebel Newsom is a filmmaker whose documentaries have been seen by millions —but that didn’t happen purely because of talent. Siebel Newsom leaned on her powerful hubby and his education board to push preachy flicks about “toxic masculinity” into classrooms, casting her husband as an enlightened Democratic savior —all while raking in up to $300,000 annually through her nonprofit, The Representation Project, and for-profit outfit Girls Club Entertainment. “I turned the lens on boys and men and looked at the boy crisis in America and how we were failing our boys and men with this...

President Trump vowed Monday to catch the “leaker” who revealed that US forces were not immediately able to rescue the second F-15 pilot shot down over Iran — as he retold of the wounded airman’s dramatic weekend rescue. “We’re looking very hard to find that leaker,” Trump said in the White House briefing room. “They basically said that we have one and there’s somebody missing. Well, [Iran] didn’t know there was somebody missing until this leaker gave the information.” “We think we’ll be able to find it out, because we’re going to go to the media company that released it,...

HOUSTON, TX — With the toilet about Artemis II breaking for the second time, NASA began to wonder if stocking the shuttle with Chipotle may have been a mistake. With the crew being forced to resort to "collapsible contingency urinals", NASA Director Jared Isaacman could not help thinking that Chipotle was a poor choice. "We may have screwed the pooch on this one," sighed Isaacman. "The meal all being wrapped into one aluminum container, it just sucked us in. We probably should have known better. I mean, it is Chipotle. I may have been drunk when I made that call."...

@mtracey Benny Johnson says Bondi's fatal flaw was not being in tune enough with the online GOP "base," which is "obsessed with the Epstein Files," and demanding to know that "we're not paying taxes to pedophiles." Something tells me the next AG won't be able to satisfy this angst, either
