Democrats Call For Flags To Be Flown At Half-Mast To Grieve Death Of Soleimani

Flags were spotted flying at half-mast around the country, notably at The Washington Post, The New York Times, and in front of several celebrities' homes. The celebrities went out and bought an American flag for the first time just to fly it at half-mast for this important time of grief.

"The grieving process is painful but necessary," said Rep. Ilhan Omar. "As a nation, we need to stop and grieve this great, austere, revered religious scholar. He was one of the good ones."

In a rare moment of unity with The Squad, Pelosi gave each of the girls a hug, telling them to just "let it all out" in their time of sadness.

Ocasio-Cortez didn't seem to know what was happening but adjusted her glasses to look smart.

A teary-eyed Barack Obama was also seen solemnly lowering the flag in front of his seaside mansion. "To think, this all could have been prevented with a few pallets of cash."

Responding to a Twitter user who expressed concern that "Republican friends" on Facebook "are circulating it like it's legit," CNN reporter Donie O'Sullivan pointed out that The Babylon Bee was getting more traffic on that one article than his network and The New York Times get weekly.

"To put this in perspective, this is the same number of engagements the top NY Times and CNN stories on Facebook had over the past week," O'Sullivan wrote. "A lot of people sharing this 'satirical' story

Iran Announces They Will Stop Pretending To Follow Nuclear Deal

Did Mossad stop assassinating their nuclear scientists? "Hey, guess what, you're our new nuclear expert! Get ye to the Centrifuges!" "What happened to the last nuclear expert?" "Don't ask, and congratulations on your promotion!"

Phone rings at American embassy somewhere in the Middle East: "I need asylum and I have Iranian secrets!"

Hmm, where did Salami Baloney keep all those terrorist seeding mega-bucks? Maybe the Clinton Foundation? Or did Obama just give him an American Treasury Unlimited Platinum Credit Card?

How long will the loyalties lasts if the money stream dries up?
