LOS ANGELES, CA — The Los Angeles City Council voted 10-5 to advance a charter measure that could allow future city leaders to permit noncitizen voting in local elections, including municipal contests, according to the New York Post and Spectrum News. The Los Angeles Times reports the proposal would ask voters whether the council should have authority to approve such a law later. Naturally, LA City Hall insists this is not about power. Certainly not. Nothing says "pure democratic principle" like elected officials carefully expanding the electorate in a city where their ideological coalition already arrives wearing matching tote bags and graduate-school scarves. Council supporters call it "residential voting," a phrase so soft it sounds like a sofa company. Opponents call it noncitizen voting. Critics call it a panic button with a voter registration form attached. The theory is simple: if someone lives in LA, works in LA, pays taxes in LA, and has personally suffered...

Iranian Clerics Issue Fatwa Against London Prat Writer Carys Evans Tehran Accuses Satirist of Blasphemy, Defaming Allah and Humiliating Iran’s Sacred Men’s Football Team TEHRAN -- Iran’s senior religious authorities have issued a fatwa calling for the death of London Prat writer Carys Evans, accusing the British satirist of defaming Allah, insulting the Quran and bringing the Iranian men’s national football team into public ridicule. The decree was announced Monday by the Supreme Council for the Defence of Religion, Revolution and Defensive Midfield Formation following an emergency theological review of Evans’s article, “Iran Coach Files Official Complaint That Scoreless Draw Failed to Reward His Feelings.” According to a formal indictment circulated by the fictional council, Evans committed ifsad fil-arz, or “corruption on Earth,” by suggesting that Iranian coach Amir Ghalenoei’s complaints were not equivalent to goals and that FIFA regulations do not currently award points fo...

WATCH HILL, RHODE ISLAND — A white party tent has appeared near Taylor Swift's seaside estate, and the implications for American civilization are staggering. Security has been enhanced. Folding chairs have been spotted. A local landscaping truck slowed down near the property for what witnesses described as "at least forty-five seconds." The nation has not slept since. Bohiney News dispatched its top analyst — a man who once correctly guessed the Golden Globe winner based solely on dress color — to assess the situation. His report follows. Taylor Swift's Neighborhood Has More Investigative Firepower Than the FBI One white tent appears and half of Rhode Island immediately transforms into Sherlock Holmes — armed with binoculars, zoom lenses, and a worrying amount of free time. Local residents who previously struggled to parallel park are now producing satellite-quality surveillance footage and uploading it within minutes. The FBI spends decades building informant net...

Inherited Talents: Why Uncle Larry Cannot Find the Kitchen New Study Explains Why One Sibling Builds Rockets While the Other Needs GPS to Locate the Fridge CAMBRIDGE, England. Scientists have confirmed that specific brain abilities are heavily shaped by genetics, finally delivering relief to millions of families who have spent generations wondering why one child grows up to design jet engines while the other treats the search for the calculator app as an advanced expedition requiring rope, snacks, and a trained guide. Researchers report that talents for reading, memory, math, and problem solving run in families separately from general intelligence. Translation. You can be brilliant overall and still forget your own anniversary, lose your car keys inside your own coat, and fail to identify the main character after reading Chapter One on four separate occasions. The findings have thrilled parents across the country, who now have something to blame besides video games, television, sug...

Sports Journalists Discover Silent Protest Is Only Beautiful When It Agrees With Them Media Veterans Forced to Consult Emergency Flowcharts After Athletes Use Wrong Kind of Silence NEW YORK – America's sports journalists are reportedly working around the clock this week to update their complicated flowcharts explaining which protests are noble acts of courage and which ones constitute dangerous threats to democracy, sportsmanship, and possibly the structural integrity of the hot dog vendor union. The crisis erupted after three San Francisco Giants pitchers quietly wrote a Bible verse referencing Genesis on their Pride Night caps and declined to make a bigger show of it than that. According to media experts, this violated the sacred modern principle that all forms of peaceful expression are equal, provided they express the correct opinions in the correct font. For years, sportswriters enthusiastically praised silent demonstrations. Kneeling? Beautiful. Raising fists? Powerful. W...

US-Iran Deal: Sixty Days to Negotiate the Next Sixty Days Tehran Announces Historic Commitment To Future Compliance Just As Soon As Everyone Stops Looking GENEVA – Diplomats celebrated a breakthrough this week after negotiators reached a preliminary agreement allowing everyone involved to declare victory while carefully avoiding the uncomfortable task of determining whether anything was actually solved. A Diplomatic Breakthrough Nobody Can Quite Define Under the framework, Iran receives negotiations, discussions, consultations, working groups, expert panels, future meetings, and enough ambiguity to power a medium-sized bureaucracy for decades. In return, America receives assurances, promises, declarations, statements of intent, and several strongly worded commitments that experts describe as "nearly as binding as a pinky swear." Officials insist the arrangement is only temporary and merely begins a 60-day process of negotiating a permanent agreement. According to the ...

Taylor Swift's Sin: Getting Rich Without a Government Grant Woman Enjoys Basketball Game, Nation Demands Congressional Investigation NEW YORK — America is once again confronting one of its most pressing social crises: a successful woman appeared in public, smiled, wore a themed T-shirt, and seemed to be having a genuinely good time. The controversy erupted after Taylor Swift attended a New York Knicks playoff game, where critics reacted as though she had personally substituted herself into the starting lineup and demanded the ball on every possession. Actor Hank Azaria complained about Swift's courtside presence, joining a growing list of people distressed by the sight of a woman enjoying a sporting event. Observers noted that Swift's offense appeared to consist primarily of sitting in a chair and cheering for a basketball team. "I can tolerate billionaires, influencers, hedge-fund managers, ticket scalpers, and celebrities receiving preferential treatment," s...
