Dateline:
Washington, D.C.
Just
weeks away from operational testing, the new joint Lockheed-Grumman F-42 X-Wing
Multi-role Strike Fighter and Death Star Destroyer project has been cancelled
entirely. At the Whitehouse briefing room, President Joe Biden handed out
pamphlets, along with brightly colored Crayons, to assembled members of the
press.
The
leaflets explained, in language the president is incapable of, that the F-42
project was cancelled so that funding earmarked for the fighter’s development
could be diverted to a Federal contract to erect a 1,200-foot statue of, and
shrine dedicated to, the late George Floyd in the rubble of downtown
Minneapolis.
A Fox
News reporter asked the President if such a move was wise in light of growing
tensions over Russian military moves into the Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
President
Biden responded, “Mglarble dub wubby glom blub!”
Presidential
aides alertly removed the Crayons from the President’s mouth and asked the
reporter to re-phrase the question, using fewer and smaller words.
The
reporter then inquired, “What…about…Putin?”
“Putin
good!” President Biden answered. “Me like Putin! Tapioca, chocolate, butterscotch.
Mmmm. Nummy Putin!”
As
aides quickly pushed the President off stage, the remainder of the media
present responded swiftly to the crisis. They immediately engaged Whitehouse
Press Secretary Jen Psaki, clad in her favorite pink Russian ushanka hat
replete with hammer and sickle, with crucial inquiries for clarification.
CNN:
“Even though the allegations came from an anonymous Internet blogger who said
she received the information from a ‘Magic Eightball’ and her physic parakeet, shouldn’t the FBI
investigate this latest rumor that in a 2007 trip to Russia Donald Trump
poisoned two baby polar bears with Trump-brand Vodka in a Moscow hotel suite?”
Psaki
responded, “A complete and utter lack of evidence and credibility is no reason
not to launch and in-depth investigation and try to keep this story in the news
for as long as possible.”
At this point, a drooling President Biden
rushed back out onto the stage, shrieking, “And chocolate-vanilla! And
tropical-mango! Oh nummy Putin!”
Shocked
and dismayed by this sudden turn of events, several correspondents vowed to do
a multi-part story to remind the American public about the possibility of
Ronald Reagan having had signs of dementia during his second term as president,
and how this may have caused the present unrest in the Ukraine.
