...
I know you smoke, I know you drink that brew,
I just can't abide a sinner like you.
God can't either, that's why I know it's true,
That Jesus loves me but he can't stand you.

I'm going straight to heaven, boys, when I die,
'cause I've crossed every T and I've dotted every I
Why, my preacher tells me I'm god's kind of guy,
That's why Jesus loves me, but you're gonna fry.

God loves all his children, by gum,
That doesn't mean he won't incinerate some,
Can't you feel those hot flames licking you?

I'm raising my kids in a righteous way,
So don't be sending your kids to my house to play,
Yours will grow up stoned, left leaning and gay,
I know - Jesus told me on the phone today.

ICE Official Says Agents Will Hate' Helping TSA at Airports
www.newsweek.com

... Federal immigration agents will "hate" being deployed to assist airport security operations amid Transportation Security Administration (TSA) staffing shortages, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official told Newsweek.

"The HSI agents will hate it," the official said, referring to Homeland Security Investigations personnel. "I've not heard any talk of this within ERO (Enforcement and Removal Operations). They want us arresting and deporting aliens."

The official, who requested anonymity to speak freely, said they first heard about the reassignment when they were contacted by Newsweek over the weekend.

The Trump administration has begun deploying ICE agents to airports nationwide to assist TSA, following weeks of disruption caused by the partial government shutdown, which has contributed to staffing shortages and longer passenger screening times. Some airports have advised travelers to arrive hours earlier than usual.

SNL UK reviews are in and it's surprisingly good news for comedy fans
www.mirror.co.uk

... Reviews are in for Saturday Night Live UK after its star-studded debut episode.

SNL UK launched on Sky last night, with viewers across the country tuning in to watch the comedy show. ...

While most critics agreed that the show had a few kinks to iron out, the general consensus was that SNL UK had a much stronger opening than had been anticipated.

The Telegraph's Ed Power gave the first episode an optimistic four stars, highlighting Tina Fey's excellent performance as SNL UK's first host and calling it a "shockingly competent spin-off".

He also pointed out: "Predictions that a transatlantic SNL would crash and burn proved wide of the mark."

Lucy Mangan of The Guardian awarded the show three stars, acknowledging the uphill battle the series faced as she noted that it "didn't fail and could have been a lot worse".

Gary Bushell from The Daily Express admitted it wasn't "as bad as I feared" claiming the show was "better than spineless BBC comedy".

The Financial Times' Rebecca Nicholson added: "Britons may be sceptical of Saturday Night Live UK - but its debut episode shows promise With Tina Fey as guest host and some close-to-the-bone humour, Sky's SNL translation was often inventive and sharp."

Metro's Adam Miller called the show "shockingly good", confessing: "It's been a long time since I've rooted for something as hard as SNL UK to succeed." ...

However, not everyone was convinced after the first episode, with The New Statesman's Nicholas Harris claiming Saturday Night Live is "doomed in the UK".

Meanwhile, publications like Variety and The Wrap suggested that the show will become more successful if it decides to lean more into British humour and away from the US format. ...


Hi Clownshack

Armed ICE agents terrorizing commuters at airports is perfect.

Who has anxieties about flying in Amerikkka, right?
