Customs Is the New TSA
Lax security at JFK International Airport allowed an entire flight full of passengers to enter the country without passing through customs.
Huh. Must not have been any toddlers or wheelchair-bound grandmothers on that flight.

It’s Such an Ugly Word
White House press secretary Josh Earnest denied that a $1.7 billion payment to Iran was “ransom” to release American hostages.
Yes, of course. Sorry… We meant “liberation expenditure”.
Obama Warned Us – Unemployment
In the weekly address, President Obama speaks about taking steps to modernize our unemployment insurance system. http://ofa.bo/y4M
“Being unemployed will now include those who are working. Except for purposes of calculating the unemployment rate.”
Straight Line of the Day: The Upside of DC Being Buried by a Blizzard…
Works like this: I feed you Moon Nukers a straight line, and you hit me with a punch line in the comments.

Random Thoughts: Hillary, Trump, and X Files
We should start a new political party. And you get kicked out of it if you run for office as you can’t trust those people.
When is Hollywood going to catch up with the rest of the country and be against racism?
I didn’t get scared until Nate Silver started changing his tune on Trump.
The problem with the Republican Party is it peaked too early with freeing the slaves. Can’t really keep up momentum after that.
So how volatile is Trump? Is he “punch a foreign leader” volatile? If so, I might vote for him.
I think a good VP candidate to balance the Trump ticket would be a sad circus clown who says hard truths no one wants to hear.
I hope the third Thor movie is where he finally says “Stop! Hammer time!” or I’m giving up on Marvel.
The X-Files has returned. Hopefully it will explain Trump.
One of the problems for Hillary is finding enough people completely dead inside to enthusiastically support her.
Trump, Hillary, and Bloomberg? It’s going to be a real New York Values election. The living will envy the dead.
Some people on the internet are mean. When did that happen?
The great argument for Bernie Sanders as president is that he’d be completely infective at doing anything.
The problem with Cruz is that no one likes him, including me. Doesn’t mean he’ll be a bad president, though.
I think Hillary will be a nice continuity to the meh of Bush and Obama.
I’m tired of wars in the Middle East. We need wars in all of the other continents. Who can we fight in Antarctica?
The X-Files is on while Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are in the news. We’ve time warped backed to the 90s!
I’m a little disappointed National Review didn’t take a stronger stance against Donald Trump.
I for the life of me can’t figure out how anyone can take either Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders seriously.
If I remember right, the X-Files started out on Friday nights when I was a teenager and I never missed an episode. So, that’s me.
This new show The X Files is a blatant ripoff of Fringe.
If George W. Bush was controlled by the Cigarette-Smoking Man, is Donald Trump ruining his plans to put Jeb into power?
Shouldn’t they update The X-Files to modern times and have the guy behind all the conspiracies stand in the shadows vaping?
Sure are a lot of books on being an atheist. How many do you need before you get it down? Not believing in God seems way too complicated.
Latest Downton Abbey was strangely right-wing. Longtime socialist converted by American capitalism and there was big anti-government rant.
Why does Donald Trump have such weird stubby fingers? Did Stannis Baratheon cut off his finger tips for smuggling?
And Then They’ll Make It Mandatory
Researchers have developed a new computer chip that allows your brain to communicate directly with a computer.
With only half the accuracy and taking twice the time of using a keyboard, it’s perfect for most any government program.
