Y’all hear about this?..
The U.S. Supreme Court declined to intervene in a bunch of controversial cases, leaving in place the decisions of the lower courts. Law experts were shocked mostly by the surprise appearance of the nine judges as they nailed a “Gone Fishin’” signs onto their leather-bound chairs.
Kamala Harris revealed that she owns a Glock during her 60 Minutes interview. Which might explain why the camera lingered on the host for remainder of the conversation and had vague tone of being held in a stickup.
A congressional candidate in Virginia, frustrated at being rebuffed in his demands for a debate with the Democratic Party incumbent, has created an AI chatbot to take his place. You know, it’s all fun and games until your A.I. opponent starts reading your internet search history live on television.
Taylor Swift has dethroned Rihanna as Forbes’ richest female musician. Insiders say they’re still friendly but will avoid contact at the next few Illuminati cookouts.
Finally…
Trump allies are calling for the federal government to punish Deloitte after an employee at the consulting firm apparently shared his private messages with JD Vance. More leaked messages between the two reveal an angry Vance typing “I’m not some play thing to exploit. I’m putting an end to our afternoon Deloittes.”
