The White House has declared victory in the war it started in Iran, saying it has achieved its objectives of spending tens of billions of dollars and causing thousands of deaths in order to return things to roughly as they were before the war started, at least for the next two weeks.

“The Straight of Hormuz is open, Khamenei is the Ayatollah and Iran still has nuclear materials,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement that could have been read out this morning or three months ago.

Leavitt praised President Donald Trump for his ability to broker peace. “There was peace before. Then for some reason there wasn’t. And now there is peace again. Give this man the Nobel Prize,” she said.

One Republican Senator said no-one should ever underestimate Trump again. “Yes, we have spent valuable resources and lost precious lives, yes we have emboldened Iranian leaders and caused a whole new generation of Iranians to despise us, yes we have alienated our allies and caused economic harm across the globe. But let us not forget that the trade route that no one had ever heard of before because it operated without issue for decades, is now operating without issue. Or it will soon, with maybe some minor issues, we haven’t really gone through all the details yet. That is what victory looks like”.

Saying he was determined to crack down on undocumented Latino children illegally entering the country, Donald Trump has ordered ICE to immediately find and deport the global weather pattern El Niño.

“We’re going to find this Mexican and send him back immediately,” Trump told a press briefing.

The President was said to be enraged upon learning about the illegal immigrant, but also confused that the news was brought to him by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

“Apparently he crosses the border every few years, wrecks everything, hides in the ocean and nobody stops him. Doesn’t speak English. No papers. A lot of people are saying he is part of a gang. We’re going to look into that,” Trump said.

Meteorologists attempted to explain that El Niño is a naturally occurring ocean-atmosphere phenomenon and not a person, but Trump was unconvinced. “That’s exactly the kind of fancy language the elites use when they don’t want you asking questions,” he said.

I do not wish Trump ill. While he hasn’t shown a shred of compassion for anyone other than himself, this doesn’t justify any of us lacking compassion for him.good for you then, robert, but fwiw i demur. vigorously. vehemently. with bells on... bigly.

I know what it’s like to be 80. We have reason to worry about Trump’s health

Physical and mental health aren’t easily separated, especially at our age. And the president is showing many concerning signs

straya has so much for which to be ashamed, & what was done to this lady a decade ago is just one more bit of evidence about the national lie we keep telling ourselves... "easy-going, laid-back, friendly, tolerant, egalitarian..." total bullshit.
