- Trump Executive Order Targets Color-Blind Casting in Hollywood
Washington, D.C. - Tucked away among a flurry of fresh executive orders signed by President Trump is one targeting how Hollywood approaches the selection of actors and actresses to play various characters in movies and television programs. The role of Nick Fury, shown here portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson in Revenger Patrol alongside Corporal Star and Mr. Machine, was not even offered to Kevin Sorbo because of reverse racism "Color-blind casting has been a big problem in the United States for years," Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained. "It is an insult to the people who created these characters with a particular ethnicity in mind, like how Ariel is supposed to be white and speak perfect English. Hey, I didn't write the book." Although expected to be unpopular with some in the industry, there is a surprising amount of support for the executive order from one group: white people. Increasingly marginalized in recent years, many white people in Hollywood are rejoicing in the expectation of a greater diversity of roles being made available for them. Kevin Sorbo, a former A-lister who was once a household name when he starred as the titular detective in Hercules Poisson: His Amazing Adventures Continue from 1995 through 1999, is one of them. "I lost out on so many roles because of the woke obsession of focusing on talent over rigid ethnic identities of characters."
- Filming Wraps on Family Circus Movie After Long Delay
Hollywood, CA - After years of delays, filming has finally wrapped on The Family Circus: The Movie , and the director's controversial vision for bringing the beloved comic strip to life will finally face public scrutiny. Werner Herzog, shown here delighting in the struggle of a child with an impossible dream "Yes, it's going to be hilarious," writer and director Werner Herzog explained. "But I also wanted to explore the deep sadness in this family that has always been hidden under the surface, shaping their lives and the way that they interact with the world around them." Herzog also helmed the controversial 1981 movie adaptation of The Monster at the End of This Book: Starring Lovable, Furry Old Grover , which is a classic example of the director's unique interpretation of everyday reality. Although initially released with a family friendly G rating, the director's cut of that movie was considered by many to be unnecessarily violent. Roger Ebert, one of the few critics to write a positive review at the time, appreciated how Grover represented the monster in all of us and compared the movie favorably to Bergman's The Seventh Seal , stating that both films present a raw and unflinching depiction of the inevitability of "the end of one's own book". The Family Circus often blends cartoonist Jeff Keane's sardonic wit and raging white nationalist beliefs Known for pushing his actors to their limits, Herzog has stated that he accepted nothing less than perfection during production of The Family Circus: The Movie . He has also revealed that the film remained true to its comic strip origins. "Yes, the circle. It's always there, isn't it? Closing in on them. Suffocating them. They live in fear of it, don't they? And there is no escape but death."
- Trump Signs Executive Order Establishing Permanence of His Executive Orders
Washington, D.C. - In a bold and cunning move, President Donald Trump has signed an executive order establishing permanence of his executive orders, even in the event that a future president disagrees with any of the established directives. President Trump, shown here signing an executive order forbidding women from voting while on their period "This is just another example of how the President is always seven steps ahead of everyone else," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt explained. "There have been almost 14,000 of these orders and many have been done away with by new presidents when they take office. Not any more. This is how you make America great again forever." Praise for the brilliant move by Trump is pouring in from across the Republican Party. Some, like conservative narrative conduit and professional plagiarist Monica Crowley, who was recently appointed to the position of Chief of Protocol by the president, are pointing out the continued legacy of Republican leadership. "He really is playing and winning at 3-dimensional chess while the Democrats think this is a game of checkers. We haven't seen anything like this since George W. Bush signed that executive order allowing unlimited executive orders. They used to just get three!"
- New TikTok Challenge Takes Internet by Storm
America - It's official, at least to the literally millions of internet users posting videos of themselves taking part in the latest viral "TikTok challenge". The hottest new trend among cusper millennials, Zoomers, and elder gen alphas is slurdging. But what is it? And why is it so popular? Greer Hedgy, shown here in full crochetcore aesthetic after bedrotting for a 36 hour slurdge sesh "It's so stupid," 17-year-old slurdger Greer Hedgy explained. "I read about it in some old book I found in the library basement at school. It's so dumb I can't wait to do it again. I love it!" Dr. Fishman, shown here with the clipboard used by Fishman men in a direct line for nearly a thousand years and which many believe grants him true understanding of the adolescent mind Slurdging, an ancient practice first described in Sanskrit on a 1st century BCE teen stone tablet, has taken TikTok by storm over the past week with over 10 billion hours of video posted since Timothée Chalamet was caught doing it in an Arby's bathroom. Some medical experts, like certified social media physician Mort Fishman, are warning parents to be on the lookout for signs of slurdging in their teenagers and young adult children still living in their old room or crashing in the basement because their old room has the treadmill now. "Talking back. eye rolling. Sleeping in on weekends. Smartphone use at night. Not thinking that their parents are cool. It's just awful."
- Elon Musk Plans Journey to Center of the Earth
Bastrop, TX - As testing of the revolutionary Prufrock 4 boring machine nears completion, The Boring Company (TBC) owner and internet bad boy Elon Musk has announced plans to dig a tunnel to the center of the Earth. Musk, shown here in a direct feed from his implanted Neuralink riding in a large dinosaur's mouth 4,000 feet below the surface of the Earth with his hot girlfriend and...one of his kids? "These monster machines are over 300 feet long and can produce nearly 5 million pounds of thrust," Musk revealed during a recent livestream on X while pwning noobs in the action RPG game Path of Exile 2 . "I've faced max difficulty on hardcore so many times that there just isn't any any excitement anymore from these...children's games. That's why I want to feel the thrill of exploring where nobody has ever been before. I want to be the first to reach the center of the Earth itself!" Because of the risk inherent in travelling that deep into the planet, what with the intense heat, incredible pressure, and dinosaurs, the initial attempts to reach the center of the Earth will involve uncrewed drillships. According to Musk, crewed exploration will begin in only 4 years. "That's a promise, and Elon Musk's word is like iron, as unwavering and unbreakable as my sorcerer character's armor in Path of Exile 2 , which is made of iron.
- Tampa Kindergarten Raises $3.5 Million for Ukraine War
Tampa, FL - A kindergarten in Tampa raised $3.5 million to help support Ukraine's fight against Russia by purchasing a 30,000 pound GBU-57 Massive Ordinance Penetrator (MOP) after a citywide fundraising competition. Students from runner-up Carlton Academy, shown here presenting the congratulatory plaque purchased with the $25.43 raised during the competition "Those little diaper busters just wanted to help so bad," Primrose School of South Tampa principal Garth Dingle explained. "You should see the card and all the drawings they sent along with the bomb. So adorable!" The precision-guided GBU-57 "bunker buster" bomb sent to Ukraine by the class was covered in each of the children's handprints and is capable of penetrating 200 feet into the earth before the 5,300 pounds of high explosives detonate. According to 5-year-old Cheshire Whitman, the experience was fun and educational. "Moppy will be used as a strike weapon against hard and deeply buried targets. We named her Moppy."

[The following is a paid advertisement from Globodyne Industries. The views presented do not necessarily reflect those of Zoo Knudsen or of Knudsen's News.] Are you one of the 15% of Americans intolerant to gluten, a protein inserted into wheat, rye and barley by Nazi scientists and Monsanto? Do you suffer from one of the over 55 diseases linked to this killer protein? Diseases like gluten intolerance, storchus, grimp, and mad cat disease? Have you been ostracized in your community, abandoned by friends and family, or fired from your job because of brain fog or adrenal fatigue? Do you sometimes feel off balance or dizzy? Do you have occasional headaches or multiple sclerosis? Have you been diagnosed with dental pruritis, piloalgia, or fecal luminescence? Have you eliminated gluten from your diet without improvement in your symptoms? Are there environmental sources of gluten other than your diet? A 2001 study found that standard house cats contain as much gluten as a loaf of french bread! The answer is yes! Eliminating gluten entirely from the diet is crucial in combating gluten intolerance, but did you know that some house cats are also a source of gluten? Thankfully, researchers at Globodyne Industries have developed a process which removes all traces of the deadly protein from your feline companion. But how do you know if your cat contains gluten? The single best way to determine if your cat is a gluten carrier is to cut all ties with the animal for at least 2-3 weeks and then slowly reintroduce it into the home. After this washout period, simply release your cat from its patented Globodyne Feline Gluten Containment Unit for gradually increasing lengths of time over several months to a year. Do not forget to feed your cat and provide fresh gluten-free water. Keep a detailed dream journal in order to scientifically determine if you felt better while your cat was contained, and if symptoms returned after its release. Remember, in order for this test to work you must achieve complete separation from the animal. Not even eye contact is allowed because gluten was discovered in 2011 to have evolved into a collective intelligence formed by the action of millions of decentralized self-organizing individual proteins, and they know when you look at them.

In 1998, 5-year-old Timmy Sweetchild died from a severe case of electromagnetic hypersensitivity after exposure to massive levels of Wi-Fi emitted by Scamps, the family's Havanese puppy. Globodyne already had a canine Wi-Fi eliminator on the market but Mr. and Mrs. Sweetchild chose to ignore our warnings. Are you prepared to let your loved ones die?

- To Activate or Inactivate: A Fight for the Soul of Chiropractic
Davenport, IA - Since its discovery when one of humanity's primitive ape ancestors cured a case of adrenal fatigue by dropping a medium-sized rock on a patient's sixth thoracic vertebra, chiropractic has been a powerful path to both improved lower back pain and total body wellness. Though initially suppressed by mainstream medical zealots, chiropractic care thrived in the shadows, back alleys, and suburban strip malls for millennia until emerging as a respected healthcare discipline a little over 100 years ago. And in the past century it has grown and evolved with the development of a variety of philosophies and treatment approaches. Recently, however, the field has largely consolidated into two distinct camps: activators and inactivators. While the two groups share a focus on spinal health and the restoration of function in order to treat a variety of musculoskeletal complaints and general health concerns, there are significant differences between the two approaches, with both claiming superiority. This schism highlights the complexity of chiropractic history and practice, and raises questions about the future of the profession. The International Council of Chiropractic Elders, shown here moderating a debate between activators and inactivators on the benefit of chiropractic in patients with end stage text neck Understanding the Dispute The difference between the two groups involves the approach to correcting the chiropractic submixation. Though it remains a controversial clinical entity often labelled as "fictional" or "really stupid" by conventional medical doctors, it is widely accepted as a primary source of spinal dysregulation by chiropractors, insurance companies, and Cleveland Clinic for some reason. According to Frank Grimes, DC, a Level VII chiropractor who practices activation chiropractic in Belvidere, Nebraska, the submixation is an evidence-based construct: A submixation is a complex of functional and/or structural and/or pathological spinal derangements that compromise neural integrity and may influence organ system function and general health. They definitely exist. I've seen them. Submixations can occur anywhere along the entirety of the spine and effect people of all ages, even during prenatal development in the mother's womb or in one of those secret artificial placentas used to create Timothée Chalamet. Studies performed near Harvard have confirmed that you can develop a life-threatening spinal submixation at any time, even just sitting there reading this article. And left untreated, it could result in morning neck stiffness or even death at some point in the next few decades. Activation-based chiropractors, known as "activators" or "pushers", believe that the spine is underperforming because of one or more submixations. They rely on the use of a handheld spring-loaded device known as an activator. This device allows a trained professional like Dr. Grimes to apply a precise amount of force to an individual vertebral body, pushing it back into position and restoring the flow of energy, or "spine power". This low force but extremely clinically impressive adjustment corrects submixations without causing injury to any surrounding tissues or scaring parents of small children. A chiropractic activator, shown here restoring a sense of purpose in life to a 2-week-old infant with splenic ennui Grimes compares the force of an activator, even on the maximum setting, to something that you are probably very familiar with unless you live in one of those food deserts that those liberal public health experts are always going on about: Just take a tomato. Any tomato or soft fruit that you have lying around your house or condo will work for this. Yes, I suppose an avocado is okay, just not a coconut. You don't have an avocado, you just have a coconut? Then why did you ask about avocados? Fine, take mine. Now check it for ripeness. That's how much pressure the activator places on your spine. On the other side of the ideological divide are the inactivation-based chiropractors, also know as "inactivators" or "suckers". Rather than a belief that the body is suffering from too little spine power, they focus on reigning in a hyperactive spine that is overwhelming the nervous system. The nervous system plays a role in every aspect of your health according to Grimes: Pick three different things that your body does. Okay, so you are choosing running, jumping, and exercise. Those are really all the same thing. I'm not yelling. Fine, let's go with exercise, digestion, and thinking. All three activities require a functional nervous system. Instead of using an activator to gently shove bones of the spine back into the correct position, suckers use an inactivator to apply negative pressure that pulls them into alignment. This regulates spine power that has gone haywire and brings it back into the normal range. The inactivator, like the activator, allows power and precision without being scary or making babies cry, although sometimes that happens coincidentally during a treatment. Implications for Patient Care This split in the chiropractic profession has significant implications for patient care. Because proponents of both activation and inactivation believe that their approach is more effective, this has resulted in confusion for patients simply seeking immediate and tangible benefits. Some, like Amanda Squatch, a disseminated storchus sufferer and certified yarn winder working at the JoAnn Fabrics in Belvidere, feel caught in the middle. All I want is an evidence-based practice that provides comprehensive care for all my healthcare concerns. This kind of squabbling among chiropractors is starting to make me question if they are the legitimate medical providers that they claim to be in this pamphlet I picked up in the YMCA lobby. The InstaSuck 3000X 5th generation inactivator, shown here powered down in order to reduce risk of accidental injury The Role of Research and Evidence An important element of the ongoing disagreement is the role of scientific research and clinical evidence. Activators and inactivators both rely heavily on anecdotal evidence and historical practices to support their methods, because people are complex and it is very difficulty to account for the numerous variables, like spine frequency or the ratio of brain density to personal commitment to seeing positive results, that can impact treatment outcomes. But both groups are striving to lean more on data from case reports and pragmatic clinical trials to support their practice. In the meantime, patients are forced to rely on choosing a chiropractor based on their TikTok follower counts. Conclusion: An Uncertain but Hopeful Future for Chiropractic The debate between these two influential groups of chiropractors is unlikely to be resolved anytime soon. As the field evolves, it remains essential for both activators and inactivators to engage in open dialogue, prioritize patient care, and push for advancements in research. While disagreements will likely continue for the foreseeable future, the ultimate goal of the profession should always be the well-being of patients. In a rapidly changing healthcare landscape, embracing a variety of methodologies could be the key to shaping a more effective and unified chiropractic future. Perhaps combining the two approaches into one which both pushes and sucks on a vertebra-by-vertebra basis is the inevitable ultimate evolutionary form of chiropractic. With continued discourse and collaboration, the profession can honor its roots while evolving to meet the needs of modern patients.
- Daisy Brand Releases Updated Guidelines on Sour Cream Portion Sizes
Dallas, TX - As the economy continues to struggle in the wake of the pandemic, the company behind one of the most popular sour cream brands in the United States has issued new guidelines on appropriate portion sizes that take all socioeconomic status levels into account. Potato skins, shown here with a single ribbon of sour cream in a new ad campaign that will target homeless encampments and slums in several US cities "Our customers deserve precise serving guidelines that fit a variety of food budgets," Daisy Brand, LLC CEO David Sokolsky explained. "People are making extreme sacrifices to put delicious and wholesome condiments on the table, and frankly our focus on the dollop just isn't inclusive enough. We listened and we recognize our privilege. Daisy sour cream is for everyone, not just the 1%." For decades, Daisy Brand has recommended a full dollop when adding their sour cream to foods to improve the flavor and consistency. Some experts, like food scientist Deiter Goosens, have been outspoken critics of this approach. "This update is long overdue because there should be no shame when it comes to feeding your family. What even is a dollop? Some believe it to be roughly equivalent to a rounded spoonful, but whose spoon? The wealthy white man's? And who decided that a ribbon, a smidge, or even a nurdle or two isn't a perfectly acceptable amount of sour cream?"
- Scientists Issue Caution Over Return to Social Distancing
Tampa, FL - Experts in astronomy at the University College of South Tampa are warning government leaders to think twice before passing laws requiring social distancing as a public health measure amidst growing concerns of a possible bird flue pandemic. A registered independent artist's rendering of the Earth being ripped apart by a nearby black hole formed because of a transgender character in a Pixar movie or a transgender character in a Daily Wire sitcom "The Earth has become accommodated to human clumping over the past few thousand years," Conservative astronomer Dr. Harry Glubman, PhD explained during a recent panel discussion with a select group of Republican legislators and members of the DeSantis administration. "If everyone stood 6 feet apart again, the planet could tumble out of its orbit and kill us all." Not every member of the highly partisan astronomical community has been receptive to Glubman's recommendation to avoid social distancing. According to far left astronomer Dr. Leela Farnsworth, PhD, the dangers of standing too close together on a global scale might far outweigh those of keeping our distance. "Glubman is a fool. My models predict that excessive human clumping could increase the Earth's spin to such a degree that we would all be flung into open space."
- Brabara Bloodstone's Psychic Predictions for 2025
Psychic Predictions for the Year 2025 by Brabara Bloodstone World famous psychic and host of E! Science Channel's Ghost Celebrity Matchmaker Brabara Bloodstone, shown here telling her sister to sell all that useless Apple stock in 1981 That's right, folks. 2024 is dead and in the ground, much like the subject of the Christmas episode of Ghost Celebrity Matchmaker. And just like how I helped Mickey Rooney land a date with Maggie Smith, I'm here to help the world prepare for the coming year. Remember when women got the vote? Me too! And while I didn't predict the exact year that it would happen, I did foresee that more women would be wearing pants in 1965. That one got me a guest spot on Alfred Hitchcock's short-lived daytime call-in show Dial C for Conversation . But it hasn't been all sunshine, steak dinners, and champagne punch in the green room. Predicting the future is as much a curse as it is a blessing. For example, I always know which family member or friend is calling when the phone rings, but the ability to tell them when and how they are going to die means that I don't get very many calls. I'm not a monster! If it's going to be soon or extremely painful, I just change the subject to the importance of having a will to determine how their estate will be handled. I take these yearly predictions very seriously. In order to avoid distractions, I dig a burrow several feet underground and nestle into a large pile of damp leaves for several weeks. Not only do I see a clear image of future events, I lose most of the body fat I built up over the year gorging on pot pies and heavy cream. Fasting allows me to focus on intercepting astral projections from my future self and I highly recommend it, especially to young girls who are worried about their body image. Am I always correct when I make a prediction? Of course not! Even the best surgeon sometimes takes out the wrong organ from the right person or the right organ from the wrong person. When it comes to peering through the mist of time, the journey is often more important than the destination. Like in 2006 when I predicted that television sets would get smaller and smaller while phones would steadily increase in size. What matters is that we all continue to rely on technology, and it was revealed to me by the eternal consciousness of a Martian priestess named Levis'yona S'etan. Here are my top predictions for 2025: The popular short-form video hosting service TikTok will be shut down and replaced by people sending handwritten letters through the mail. The letters will describe what the sender was doing and may even involve crudely drawn representations of the events. Timothée Chalamet will help the service skyrocket in popularity when he announces that he also uses it to pay bills. Miami Police Department Corporal Chad Blaze will be resurrected after accidentally coming into possible contact with the dangerous drug fentanyl during a routine welfare check at the home of a local autistic man. A new religion will form around Blaze, renamed "The Chosen One", and a thousand-year reign of peace and prosperity will begin for everyone except for the autistic man, who was shot to death in his home by police for resisting their help. You thought the last pandemic was bad? Hah! What's coming in 2025 will make COVID-19 seem as scary as a box of kittens, which is ironic because it's going to be a mutated form of cat herpes. Politics will be huge in 2025, with some people being satisfied with how things are going in Washington and others very upset. Regardless, we will all come together as a country when the first of several kaiju attacks destroys Kansas City. Missouri not Kansas. The good one. As the economy continues to recover from the pandemic, more Americans will be spending money on expensive luxuries like anything imported from Mexico or Canada, diphtheria antitoxin, and South American vacations/abortion tourism.
- Experts Predict Post-Holiday Lull in War on Christmas
Manhasset, NY - With Christmas in the books and New Year's right around the corner, analysts are predicting a lull in the long-running War on Christmas that has raged between people pushing a secular agenda in America, mostly made up of atheists and communists living in woke 15-minute coastal cities, and upstanding Christian citizens. General Maynard Tubbs, 17 confirmed kills in the Starbucks Cup offensive of 2015, shown here in a picture above this caption Over the many years since the fighting began, January has been a time of regrouping and of rethinking strategies. Civilians across the United States take advantage of the temporary ceasefire to shop at businesses such as Walmart and JoAnn Fabrics without fear of being gunned down for uttering the wrong holiday greeting at passersby. And these same businesses are able to emerge from under the grim shadow of open and deadly warfare, no longer at risk of being bombed for selling Christmas Trees as opposed to Holiday Firs. "I for one was very pleased to hear the latest numbers," Fox News host Harris Faulkner explained. "Daily casualties are already down by almost 50% since December 25th, which typically is the bloodiest day of the year on the front lines. I certainly don't want more people to lose their lives than is absolutely necessary in this conflict, but it doesn't change the fact that if the secular commandos gain the upper hand and force religion out of our government buildings, public schools, and national parks, it is only a matter of time before proponents of the legalization of narcotics, euthanasia, abortion at will, gay dog weddings, trans birthday parties, and non-missionary position sexual intercourse overtake this once great Christian nation." General Maynard Tubbs, leader of the secular military force's eastern division is looking forward to a lengthy pause in combat maneuvers. "Yeah, a lot of us have jobs that we have to get back to. But look for things to start back up around Thanksgiving. And I can't say too much right now, because it is all very hush hush, but let's just say that Operation Grinch is going to put an end to all of this unpleasantness."
