Trump's Strategy Of Hiring Lawyers Based On Bust Size Not Working As Well As Anticipated

The Bee is referred to as a conservative Christian news satire site on wiki but I gotta give them credit for this one.


WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Trump's seemingly bulletproof strategy of choosing lawyers exclusively based on bust size has not worked out nearly as well as anticipated.

Trump was left befuddled this week as the administration suffered a string of legal setbacks despite all of his lawyers having large bra sizes.

"How could she lose, she's so hot," wondered Trump. "It doesn't make any sense. Our lawyer clearly has a much larger bust than their lawyer. It's not even close. It's embarrassing, frankly, the bust comparison. We should have won easily. Maybe the judge is gay, or blind. There's no other way to explain it."

White House aides reportedly tried suggesting to Trump that perhaps he should consider other factors besides bust size when choosing a lawyer. "That is so dumb," responded Trump. "It could be the dumbest idea I've ever heard. Do you think Sydney Sweeney has lost any arguments lately? Have you ever seen a woman with a large bust lose an argument? No, you haven't. It's ridiculous."

At publishing time, Trump had hired a plastic surgeon to help ensure his lawyers didn't lose any more cases.

Devastating population decline predicted in deep red state by 2040 as counties lose up to a third of residents

Areas of West Virginia that used to employ tens of thousands of people in the now-dying coal industry are facing huge population declines over the next 15 years.

McDowell County, once the world's largest coal producer, will lose 32 percent of its residents by 2040, according to grim projections by the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service at the University of Virginia.

There were 19,111 people living in McDowell County in 2020, when the US Census was last taken. Hamilton Lombard, who leads the center's demographic research group, believes there will be only 13,037 people by 2040.

The county's numbers have already fallen to just above 17,000 as of 2024. It's a far cry from the population of around 100,000 that the county had in the 1950s at the height of the coal boom.

This is not limited to McDowell, as 10 other nearby counties stand to shed tens of thousands of people between them. This will gradually translate into staggering losses in economic production and tax revenue for the state

Whispers about Vance marriage grow louder as Second Lady ditches her wedding band

Usha Vance was spotted at an official engagement without her wedding ring, weeks after husband JD Vance publicly revealed the religious divide in their marriage.

The Second Lady was ringless during her visit to Camp Lejeune military base in Richlands, North Carolina on Wednesday with First Lady Melania Trump.

Photos show Usha, 39, getting off a plane with her left hand in full view – and the wedding band nowhere to be seen.

Epstein Emails Show That Conspiracy Theorists Are Right: 'Eyes Wide Shut' Is Real

The shocking revelation in the trove of 20,000 emails from the sordid world of Jeffrey Epstein is not that crimes were being committed.

It’s more sinister. The emails are disturbing because what they reveal — and in fact prove — is that conspiracy theorists are right. That their theories of full-on corruption in the upper spheres where power lives are valid. That the “Eyes Wide Shut“ cabal of political and financial interests married to sexual deviance depicted in Stanley Kubrick’s 1999 film is not, in fact, fiction. It is reality.

Rep Jack Kimble of CA 54th district gets it right.

For those unaware, he’s a parody account on Twitter. There is no 54th district in California.

MAGAts frothing at the mouth over a bloody T-shirt

T-shirts — covered in fake blood and bearing the words “Problem Solved” — have sent outrage through the Cienega High School community after a group of math teachers wore the matching garb to class as Halloween costumes.

Some parents contended in social media posts that the shirts were a reference to the Sept. 10 killing of Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk, who was shot in the left side of his neck in front of a crowd of supporters in Utah.

The shirts, blood-soaked down the left side, drew the attention of angry residents who found the costumes distasteful and political in nature, according to posts showing the group of teachers posing together in the outfits.

But Vail School District Superintendent John Carruth said the shirts, available for purchase all over the web, were bought and worn last year as well, long before Kirk’s death.

Of course on Twitter, they’re busy little beavers doing everything they can to dox the teachers.

I saw some reviews on Amazon. that were at least a year old, but that doesn’t matter to the MAGA faithful.
