Fox thought we could detain the storm and put it in a cage beside the children. New Civil Rights Movement: Fox News is blaming Tropical Storm Hilary hitting California on President Joe Bi…

Biden doesn't care about wet people

Okay I'm not trying to defend Fox here, but it seems like this was a joke.
- But will their viewers know that?
  
  And therein lies the rub.
  
  They never do, by intent
- Or they need some supporting evidence for the "we're entertainment, not news" argument at trial.

Of course Biden is in league with... Hillary
- Did he try nuking it?
  
  Or redrawing the path with sharpie?
  
  IF I YOUR FAVORITE PRESIDENT TRUMP was in this situation NOW I would LITERALLY WRITE AN AI that HACKS the JEWISH SPACE LASERS SPONSORED by FAUX FAUCI and made THEM DESTROY the hurricane with 8K ULTRA PRESISON believe ME I'VE seen them they're the WORST lasers EVER SEEN but my HACK that was made by ME and the BEST team they're good guys! Very fine people! would have made them STRONG enough TO DESTROY THE HURRICANE. Meanwhile DeSanctimonious who is a BAD man and many of the BEST PEOPEL are saying it! is in BED with BIDEN and the DEEP STATE to STEER the hurricane to KILL my voters! It's true! They LITERALLY called the HURRICANE Hillary! It's the WORST hurricane believe me! I've seen it myself and ALL the GOOD people say it's the WORST! DON'T TRUST THEM! Vote TRUMP 2024 and stay safe!

Wait this isn't an Onion post...
- I refuse boing boing as a reputable news source lol
- The onion has been dead for a long time, how can you satire the news when the news is batshit crazy.

I bet Trump’s wall would have stopped it. Take that liberals
- Nah, Trump would just have drawn a different path with his Sharpie. Problem solved.
- Would have tried to nuke it.

It’s kind of an obvious joke about the border and immigration. The storm made landfall in Mexico and is now moving into the US. Conservatives think Biden just lets everyone in Mexico come over the border, so that’s the joke. Meanwhile liberals are laughing because they take it literally and think conservatives believe a storm can be detained. Come on folks. You need to be able to get a joke that was crafted for someone else or you are really stuck in your perspective.
- It's a joke but it's a really low quality one.
  
  All the pieces to the joke are there but Fox proved yet again that conservatives suck at comedy.
  
  Agreed. It’s what’s called a cheap shot.
- It's hard to tell since the last time the republican party was in charge the leader of the party seriously thought you could just nuke a hurricane so I would not be surprised if the viewers of fox actually do blame Biden and think you can detain a hurricane
- Bruh this is the party of "Jewish space lasers"
  It's hard to hear anything they say as coming from the mouth of anything other than a 4 year old
- Either they’re serious, and that’s bad, or they made a joke that wasn’t funny, which is also bad. I’ll roll my eyes either way.
- So appropriate to joke about natural disasters.
- If so, it's a really bad joke. Faux news has said equally crazy things.

He didn't even bring them paper towels!
- bruh

Had a prolonged laughflash right after reading the headline. Then it dawned on me: Some stupid fucks watching fox are actually going to believe this nonsense :-(

Biden is not to blame for the hurricane or any natural disaster.
- Yeah he is. He could have just changed the path of the storm with a Sharpie like Great Lord Trump, Bringer of Rains.
- If Biden had finished Trump's wall it would have put Hilary in jail.

In Canada the RW/Kremlin trolls blame our PM for the fires. Same deal.
- At least that has a thin veneer of plausibility. Technically, Trudeau could personally setting fires purposely, in that any person could set a fire in multiple locations across the country. Expecting someone to be able to stop a hurricane from entering the country is a whole new level of trolling.
  
  Both are ridiculous and have ZERO plausibility.

It's not the rain that's the problem with Hilary; it's the emails.
- Buttery Males slipped right in!
  
  Well they were good and lubricated for the task
