The essence of humor in satire is to include recognizable amounts of truth, so as to leave the audience wondering where the truth stops and the satire starts.

After Using FBI To Suppress Son’s Crimes And Raid Political Rival’s Home, Biden Warns Democracy In Danger

Sep 3, 2022
BabylonBee.com

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Having politically weaponized federal law enforcement for his own political gain, President Biden has now taken to the airwaves to warn that democracy is in real danger.

"Folks, I'm using the feds as best I can to destroy my political opponents, but let me be clear: I'm going to have to break more laws and seize even more power if I'm going to stop fascism," yelled President Biden, lighted in blood-red and surrounded by soldiers. "I don't care if that means a federal takeover of elections, an overthrow of the judiciary - heck I don't care if I have to use F-15s to carpet bomb every single Republican neighborhood in the country. We will forcibly commandeer every lever of power and communication our nation has - to, you know, defeat fascism."

President Biden went on to call for the expulsion from democratic society anyone who questioned the integrity of an American election.

Was it really a "Raid" or was it opposition research...........................?



When it comes to Hunter, if you ask most Democrats about him they will say "We didn't elect him"... but boy were they fast to nail and link any of the Trump kids as part of the "scandals" and all that ginned up baloney.



Imagine the melt downs on the Left IF Trump had delivered a speech like Biden just did. They would liken Trump to Mussolini and Hitler. Nancy Pants would be gearing up for another Impeachment because she knows he was thinking evil thoughts.



Biden and the Dems are setting the stage for the Big Steal in 2024. It might be too late for them in 2022 but they are playing the long game. We all saw what happened to a bunch of Jan6th fools and we all saw what didn't happen to the rioters that looted, burned, fought Police, injured and murdered countless others. Imagine another questionable election happens and instead of the loudest voices crying foul being told to sit down shut up and take it they instead get a knock on their door and it is the IRS with guns there to seize your tax records for an audit.



We are quickly becoming banana republic but don't worry it is all for our benefit.

When leaders warn you democracy is in danger it's almost always because they want an excuse to "defend you" by taking more of your rights away from you. This is no different.

Take your rights or steal your blind. It's always one of the two.

If he was suppressing his crimes he did a lousy job because Hunter is under investigation by the Delaware AG. Besides, presidents don't direct the FBI but that would ruin a good rant.


But hearing this from a blogger called Babylon Bee is just too funny.

It’s different because you know, “they’re” the good guys.

Hilarious . Read the other stories in that issue. I wish that was the real news because it sure does feel that way.
