    Prez Invites “Pootie” To Sleepover

    Donnie & Pootie display their jammies

    With the world in an ever-present danger of nuclear holocaust, U.S. President Donald J. Trump believes in the power of togetherness, so he recently invited Russia President Vladimir Putin to the White House “for a sleepover to end all sleepovers.”

    “The sleepover would be epic,” press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told The Lint Screen. “The president said the two leaders could stay up late after Hannity, watch monster movies, and build a fort with sheets and pillows. Of course, the fort would be branded TRUMP. Their activities would also include telling spooky stories and making prank phone calls. First Lady Melania even agreed to make popcorn and S’mores. The president is very excited about the prospect of a fun sleepover with his good pal ‘Pootie.’”

    Some in the fake liberal media have accused Trump of cozying up with a known enemy, but leaders in the Republican Party dismiss those criticisms.

    “The president knows what’s he is doing,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said. “He knows the real enemy of America are Democrats and their agenda of confiscating our guns, teaching children science, and deleting the word ‘Jesus’ from the Constitution and the Bible. President Putin seems like a good guy–– he’s already agreed with the president that there was no collusion in the 2016 election. That’s enough proof for America and me, can we move on, please. Enough of the sour grapes!”

    Eric Trump said he’d also like to attend his father’s sleepover. “I have a girlie magazine, and I know some good dirty jokes.” Chief of Staff John Kelley said that “would be impossible because there’s only room for two in the presidential sleeping bag.”

    A pouting Eric stormed off to his room and slammed the door.

    “The president is very excited,” Sarah Huckabee Sanders said. “The morning after the sleepover they can watch Fox and Friends while eating a breakfast of crispy bacon and Pop Tarts. Then, the two scamps can play with president Trump’s nuclear football.”

    There has been no word if Russia has accepted the president’s invitation.

  • Trump’s Legal Team Bolstered

    Trump’s Legal Team Bolstered

    Vega & Winnfield have a reputation for convincing arguments

    There have been many defections from President Donald J. Trump’s legal team, but today White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced two new additions.

    “The president has retained lead representation by the prestigious legal firm of Vega & Winnfield,” Sanders told a crowd of yawning reporters. “Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield are two of the finest, most respected legal minds in the world. The president is confident they have the know-how, toughness, and persuasiveness to present compelling cases and battle the many false and frivolous allegations against him.”

    A White House insider blabbed off the record to The Lint Screen that Trump is paranoid about the flurry of legal suits piling up.

    “Trump thinks it’s all a deep state plot against him for the excellent job he is doing as the leader of the free world,” said Loosy McLooselips. “He believes it’s part of the Obama-Killery plot to smear him because of their intense jealousy of the tremendous work he is doing acting very presidential. He’s also infuriated by ludicrous claims that he’s had affairs outside his marriage. Trump believes in the sanctity of marriage and is a loyal and devoted husband to Melania. He thinks their love for each other is obvious to anyone with eyes.”

    Trump also believes the investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller “is a major witch hunt, a colossal witch hunt. Very unfair.”

    “The president thinks Vega & Winnfield have the expertise to deal with bullies like Mueller and Stormy Daniels.”

    The offices of Vega & Winnfield refused to comment on their appointment to Team Trump. An official statement said “Attorneys Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield are unavailable due to their investigations into Kahuna burgers. A damn tasty burger.”

  • “Ministers of Truth” Appointed by Trump

    “Ministers of Truth” Appointed by Trump

    America gets a cast of truth tellers to set the record straight!

    President Donald J. Trump has had his fill of “fake news.”

    In a stunning announcement today, Trump announced his appointment of the hosts of Fox and Friends as “Ministers of Truth”–– a new Cabinet position.

    “There are too many liars out there,” the president said, “and that’s bad. Liars are very bad people. Americans need truth tellers to tell them like it is. People we can trust one hundred percent all of the time. Steve, Ainsley, and Brian have always been straight shooters, and I take their word as gospel. And the gospel is a good book. Most people don’t know this, but it’s a very good book. Watching the Fox and Friends crew is the best way to start any day. Their smiles are like sunshine! Their honest reporting is much, much better than reading detailed intelligence reports from the CIA and military experts. Bor-ring!”

    Sarah Huckabee Sanders later told the press that the president has empowered his Ministers of Truth with special enforcement powers.

    “If Steve, Ainsley, and Brian decide something is fake news and is potentially harmful to the president and his administration, they have the power to imprison, or, in extreme cases, execute the offenders and their families. While this may seem extreme to some people, the president believes law and order is the only way to restore the backbone necessary to make America great again.”

    A Washington Post reporter asked if the new appointments would require Congressional approval. Ms. Sanders clapped her hands, and a team of Navy Seals swept down on the reporter and immediately rushed him out of the room as he kicked and screamed.

    “Are there any more stupid questions?” the White House Press Secretary asked.

    Crickets played their legs.

    This reporter from The Lint Screen applauds the president on his excellent leadership and bows to his new Ministers of Truth! Long may you all reign!

  • Putin “Tickled Pink” At His Victory

    Putin “Tickled Pink” At His Victory

    The resounding victor shows a rare moment of jubilation.

    Russia President Vladimir Putin was overjoyed by the recent election results that gave him 77% of the popular vote for a decisive victory to serve his fourth term.

    “Strong, invincible leader was absolutely tickled pink,” Nikita Ananyev, head of The Russian Fair And Unbiased Election Committee, told The Lint Screen. “The President confided that he was very uncertain of the election’s outcome and so he is delighted by the results. He said, ‘They like me, they really like me!’”

    The seven competitors who were running against President Putin have been missing since last Friday. “We have no leads,” said Ilya Agafangel, Chief Moscow Investigator. “I think all seven may have taken a rocket into outer space. We can find no trace of their whereabouts.”

    President Putin issued a press release proclaiming his “enthusiastic gratitude” to the 77% of the population who support him and vowed his determination to “find and seek the support of the 23% who did not vote for me. I will do whatever it takes to persuade these cowardly traitors who vote anonymously in the shadows that I am their leader.”

    Mikhail Dragomirov, the president’s campaign manager announced Putin is launching a new initiative under the theme Make Russia Great Again. “Soon we will have hats and shirts with the new slogan emblazoned on them,” Dragomirov said. “And those who do not wear the MRGA items will be dealt with persuasively.”

  • Putin “Worried Sick” About Election Results

    Putin “Worried Sick” About Election Results

    “Pootie” is running scared!

    Russia President Vladimir Putin projects a tough guy image, but apparently, it’s an act.

    “The poor guy is worried sick,” Dmitry Yermolay, the editor of The Free Russia Democratic Absolute Truth Teller told The Lint Screen. “I don’t think he’s slept a wink for months. He loves his job and is terrified of losing it.”

    Putin, the 65-year-old incumbent, is running for a fourth term as President of Russia against a field of seven contenders. “Putin is quite nervous about his opponents,” Yermolay confided. “He told me it is a very strong group he must beat and that his chances of winning are only one in eight. He does not like those odds.”

    But perhaps Putin has a rabbit’s foot, and shamrock in his pocket–– all seven presidential candidates running against him have disappeared. Russian police are searching desperately for them, but have no leads.

    “It’s like they have vanished,” Ilya Agafangel, Chief Moscow Investigator confessed. “It is a true mystery. We hope they are safe.”

    “The President does not take his opposition lightly,” Yermolay said. “He always says politics is very unpredictable–– look at what Mr. Trump did in America. You can never count anyone out! Putin is also worried that Trump may have interfered with our election. If he loses, he will launch an investigation.”

    Putin should learn the election outcome soon, and perhaps he will have reason to celebrate and get a good night’s sleep.
