#6  Chinese government denies death of former President Jiang Zemin, despite rumors.

Meanwhile, the numerous baskets of dead fish surrounding Zemin's house have been explained away, that "he likes to eat rotting fish", and has been a big fan of surströmming ever since visiting Sweden.

#5  Meanwhile, the White House begs and pleads with Texas to not execute a rapist-murderer, who bashed a woman in the head with a 30 to 40 pound chunk of asphalt, then biting her hard enough to draw blood, while raping and strangling her. Then bashing her in the head with a large stick with a screw protruding from it that remained stuck in her head.

Oh, yes, because the rapist-murderer was born in Mexico, before being brought to the US when he was two years old, and remaining here, since.

I think the problem is not that US States have a death penalty, but that Mexico does not.

#2  Two soon to be adopted children persuaded by school indoctrination to betray their family and turn their father over to the police. Even if he doesn't voluntarily give them up, the state CPS will probably take them.

Heck, even in the 1960s, wise parents would tell their children to never, ever talk to a policeman or a reporter without permission from their parents, or the result might be to destroy and tear apart their family and make everyone's life miserable.

#1  Meanwhile, the worms are turning with all their wormy sliminess, to do anything in their power to keep up the flow of illegal aliens and drugs, and give amnesty to the illegals already here.

And now that Arizona is trying on its own to slow the flow, they must figure out either how to stop Arizona, or to reroute the flow.
