Not to worry, I’m sure Trump’s pet judges will find a way to allow it.

That was my first thought when I read the news ... they'll appeal it to SCOTUS, which will then find one more way to fellate the Appointer. That's assuming the appellate judges, many also GOP-appointed, don't reinstate the unConstitutional.

I wonder how far we are from disestablishment and actually becoming a secular nation instead of an Xtian country?

The Onion, a satirical publication that skewers newsmakers and current events, said on Thursday that it had won a bankruptcy auction to acquire Infowars, a website founded and operated by the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

The Onion said that the bid was sanctioned by the families of the victims of the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, who in 2022 won a $1.4 billion defamation lawsuit against Mr. Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems.

Everytown for Gun Safety, a nonprofit dedicated to ending gun violence that was founded in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook shooting, will advertise on a relaunched version of the site under The Onion.

I've honestly rarely seen a reporter display any sort of facial expression.

When we first moved here, there was a woman who was the main newscaster on one of the big three networks (not Faux News) who always looked surprised.

It had nothing to do with emotion, I think she had her brow lifted so often, and so damn much botox, that her eyebrows were in a constant half circle wayyyyy up on her forehead. It was so unnerving to me that I had to watch local news on a different station.

From the desk of the fictional owner of The Onion

Founded in 1999 on the heels of the Satanic “panic” and growing steadily ever since, InfoWars has distinguished itself as an invaluable tool for brainwashing and controlling the masses. With a shrewd mix of delusional paranoia and dubious anti-aging nutrition hacks, they strive to make life both scarier and longer for everyone, a commendable goal. They are a true unicorn, capable of simultaneously inspiring public support for billionaires and stoking outrage at an inept federal state that can assassinate JFK but can’t even put a man on the Moon.

Through it all, InfoWars has shown an unswerving commitment to manufacturing anger and radicalizing the most vulnerable members of society—values that resonate deeply with all of us at Global Tetrahedron.
