Pete Hegseth Accidentally Scribbles Top Secret War Plans on TGI Fridays Receipt After One Too Many Double Berry Mojitos

In what Pentagon officials are calling “an unhelpful but somehow completely on-brand incident,” Trump ally and White House “special military advisor” Pete Hegseth reportedly accidentally disclosed top secret U.S. military plans by writing them into the “Add Tip” section of a TGI Fridays receipt Sunday night.

According to eyewitnesses, Hegseth, who had allegedly consumed “no fewer than five” Double Berry Mojitos over a three-hour binge, attempted to leave a generous tip for his server. Instead, he carefully penciled in classified details about upcoming U.S. airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, including times, coordinates, and a helpful doodle of what he thought a Houthi looked like (later confirmed to just be a very poorly drawn Garfield).

“He seemed really intense about it,” said server Kelsie Manning, 22, who described Hegseth muttering phrases like “precision payload delivery” and “maximum kinetic impact” while squinting at the tip line. “I thought maybe he was just calculating 20% in his head, but then he wrote ‘Launch Tomahawk strikes from USS Gravely at 0400Z.’ Honestly, I was just happy to get anything above 10%.”

After finishing the mojitos and a “full rack of signature Whiskey-Glazed Ribs,” Hegseth reportedly posed for selfies with several diners, left the receipt with the war plans still attached to the signed checkbook, and stumbled into the parking lot, loudly demanding to know “which way was Mecca so we can carpet bomb it.”

Fridays management initially thought the note was a prank. “We see a lot of weird stuff here,” said Assistant Manager Bob Caldwell. “Last week someone drew a penis in the tip line and wrote ‘blow me’ on the bottom of the receipt. We just assumed this was the same vibe, but you know… more Pentagon-y.”

By the time a busboy noticed phrases like “Strike package alpha” and “ROE escalation pre-authorized by DJT” scrawled in blue Bic pen, the receipt had already been posted to the restaurant’s TikTok account under the caption #FridaysFails. It garnered over 2 million views before being hastily deleted at the request of a “very sweaty man in a government SUV.”

Sources inside the White House said President Trump was “not worried” about the leak, calling it “a perfect receipt, maybe the best tip anyone’s ever left, frankly.” When pressed further, Trump added, “Pete’s just showing how generous we are with freedom. Very generous. Bigly airstrikes. Huge.”

Meanwhile, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered an internal review of the Pentagon’s “Bring Your Secrets to Happy Hour” policy, which apparently was “never supposed to be a thing” but somehow got added to Trump’s 2025 executive orders under “things I thought sounded funny at the time.”

As for Hegseth, he issued a brief statement Monday morning:

“While I regret the confusion, I stand by my support for our military—and also for TGI Fridays’ bold flavor combinations. I hope my mistake doesn’t jeopardize ongoing operations, or my Platinum Rewards membership.”

No word yet if disciplinary action will be taken, though inside sources say Pete was last seen trying to pay for a Waffle House meal with a napkin that allegedly included sketches of future cyberwarfare tactics against Canada.

Democrats Unveil Bold 12-Point Plan to Announce Future Plans to Possibly Consider a Plan to Stop Trump

In a triumphant display of vague ambition and master-level PowerPoint transitions, the Democratic National Committee proudly announced a new 12-Point Plan to Announce a Plan to Begin Formulating a Strategy That Might Eventually Include a Plan to Stop Donald Trump and the GOP… someday.

The unveiling took place in a nearly full conference room at a Holiday Inn Express just outside Capitol Hill, where DNC Chair Jaime Harrison spoke confidently while standing beside a flowchart titled “Ideas for Future Flowcharts.”

“This is a historic moment for the Democratic Party,” said Harrison. “For too long we’ve been accused of having no clear plan. Well, no more! We now have a fully illustrated plan on how we might soon begin to plan.”

The 12 Points Include:

  1. Form a Committee to Review Past Committees
  2. Schedule a Listening Tour to Listen to The Results of Previous Listening Tours
  3. Hire a Consultant to Advise on Which Consultants to Hire
  4. Conduct a Survey to See If Surveys Are Still Cool
  5. Email Donors About The Importance of This Plan (and ask for $17.42)
  6. Hold a Unity Brunch Featuring 14 Kinds of Bagels
  7. Announce a Working Group to Define “Working Group”
  8. Leak a Draft of a Future Plan to Politico for “Buzz”
  9. Tweet Vague Sentiments With Clapping Emojis
  10. Wait for Trump to Implode (again) and hope it sticks this time
  11. Release a Podcast That Breaks Down the Plan in 47 Weekly Episodes
  12. Hold Emergency Meeting in 2026 to Rethink Strategy From Scratch

When asked whether the plan actually includes any action to stop Trump or the GOP’s sweeping policy proposals, one anonymous DNC aide chuckled nervously.

“Well, we considered adding a 13th step called ‘Do Something’ but the intern who suggested it was quietly escorted out,” they said.

Republicans responded swiftly, with Speaker Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeting, “LOLOL the Demoncrats are planning a plan to plan planning. Meanwhile I just declared war on wind turbines and Big M&M.”

Even moderate Democrats appeared confused. Senator Joe Manchin commented, “I haven’t seen this many steps since my Fitbit ran through a car wash.”

Despite the ridicule, Democrats remain hopeful. “This plan shows vision,” said Rep. Hakeem Jeffries. “We’re not just winging it—we’re scaffolding our winging it.”

Plans to release a follow-up 8-Point Plan to Review the Results of This Plan are expected next month, pending brunch availability.

Vice President JD Vance Fumbles Trophy, Claims Lack of Prior Trophy Experience

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Vice President JD Vance found himself at the center of a viral moment after dramatically fumbling the Ohio State Buckeyes’ championship trophy during a White House celebration. The crowd gasped as the trophy’s base slipped from his hands, crashing to the floor like the dreams of a kid who peaked in high school gym class.

The incident, which occurred just moments after Vance eagerly reached out to lift the prized hardware, quickly prompted questions from reporters, witnesses, and Buckeyes fans alike.

But Vance was quick with an explanation.

“In my defense,” he said solemnly, “I’ve never held a trophy before. Turns out, they don’t give trophies for 8th place in any competition. Who knew?”

Sources close to the Vice President say this is the closest he’s ever come to victory of any kind, having previously earned several “Participant” ribbons, a “Most Improved” badge in youth bowling, and one “Honorable Mention” in a middle school spelling bee for correctly spelling “mediocre.”

The top portion of the trophy remained safely in the hands of Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson, who reportedly muttered, “I should’ve been the one to hold it in the first place.”

White House staffers scrambled to collect the broken parts while President Trump, standing nearby, gave Vance a pat on the back and whispered, “Don’t worry, I dropped democracy once too.”

Vance later tried to spin the moment in his favor, tweeting: “I didn’t drop the trophy. I was separating it into two pieces for easier sharing. Like a true populist.”

Despite the gaffe, the Buckeyes appeared unfazed. “Honestly,” one player said, “it’s still less embarrassing than losing to Michigan.”

Meanwhile, manufacturers of athletic trophies nationwide are reportedly in talks to create a JD Vance Signature Series: shatterproof, lightweight, and labeled “For Display Purposes Only.”

Most Americans Now Wish They Were Elon Musk’s Kids — So They’d Never Have to See Him

In a shocking display of national unity, a recent poll revealed that 78% of Americans now wish they were Elon Musk’s children, citing one main reason: so they’d never have to see him again.

“I don’t want his money. I don’t want a Tesla. I just want the emotional distance,” said one respondent, tearing up. “If being his kid guarantees I’m ghosted for life, sign me up.”

The billionaire — known for launching rockets, tanking stock prices, and treating fatherhood like a weird fertility side quest — now has so many children that even he’s started calling them by placeholder variables. “X, A-12, Beta-Test 7… whatever. If they needed a dad, they should’ve come with better PR,” Musk reportedly said during a livestream about colonizing Neptune, moments before firing someone for blinking too loud.

Child psychologists say Musk’s parenting style is “less helicopter and more intergalactic disappearance.”

“Elon doesn’t raise kids,” one expert noted. “He manufactures them like off-brand NFTs, loses the password, and moves on.”

The campaign to be legally adopted by Musk — strictly for the lack of contact — is gaining steam, with Americans across all demographics saying it’s the only way to guarantee “no eye contact, no tweets, and no unsolicited flamethrowers.”

When asked for comment, Musk replied, “I don’t really deal with Earth stuff anymore. I’m busy making a baby with AI.”

Update: Elon has just had two more kids. Names pending. Acknowledgment doubtful.

Trump’s Neck-Vagina Enters Labor, Will Soon Birth New Vice President as JD Vance Nears Expiration

Mar-a-Lago, FL — In a shocking but medically unconfirmed development, former President Donald J. Trump has announced that his neck-vagina—the long-suspected fleshy fold resting just above his collar—has entered active labor and will soon birth the 2024 Republican Vice Presidential nominee.

“For years, people mocked it. Said it looked like a vagina. Nasty people. Nasty!” Trump declared during a press conference held in a Bed Bath & Beyond that had already been converted into a MAGA Hat Outlet. “Well guess what? It was a vagina. A very powerful, very presidential one. And now it’s doing what most necks can’t—delivering leadership.”

The revelation comes amid rising concerns that current VP hopeful JD Vance is “too shelf-stable,” “not birchy enough,” and “lacking the prophetic charisma of a fleshy throat canal.” Trump’s aides say that while Vance was a “solid test balloon,” he lacks the ability to unite QAnon influencers and suburban wine moms under one placenta.

Medical professionals, after briefly reviewing high-res photos of Trump’s collar region, confirm what many on the internet had long speculated. “Honestly, we thought it was just aggressive spray tan runoff collecting in a fold,” said Dr. Sandra Klemper, a dermatologist and amateur political theorist. “But when it began pulsing and humming the national anthem, the truth became clear: that neck has a cervix.”

Preparations are underway. The labor room, code-named “Operation Liberty Canal,” is located inside a private suite at Mar-a-Lago outfitted with gold stirrups, diamond-encrusted forceps, and Mike Lindell whispering affirmations into the birth canal.

The neck-vagina is rumored to be crowning what Trump calls “a magnificent running mate, fully formed, already polling at 100% with people who matter.”

Names under consideration include:

  • Ronald Rebirth Jr.“Came out of me, so technically my son. Beautiful, strong jaw.”
  • Freedomblossom McStranglehold“Feminine but deadly. Like Ivanka, but born from truth.”
  • Elon-gated Neckmusk“He’s already there most days anyway. Might as well make it official.”
  • Necklace P. Destiny“Because it came from the neck. And from destiny. And I like the letter P.”

JD Vance was reportedly seen backing slowly into a hedge at Cracker Barrel. “If the President’s neck believes someone else is better, who am I to argue?” he said, before being devoured by a Bible-shaped shadow.

The baby Vice President is expected to emerge during sweeps week, or whenever Hannity calls it “fully dilated.” Trump promises a “beautiful, clean birth,” adding, “There will be no mess. Very tidy. Some say the cleanest neck-birth ever recorded.”

America watches. And prays. And questions everything they’ve ever known about anatomy, politics, and the durability of shirt collars.

TRUMP ASSURES AMERICANS HE’S IN TOUCH: “I KNOW EXACTLY HOW MUCH A GALLON OF EGGS COSTS”

PALM BEACH, FL — In a press conference held outside his gold-plated Mar-a-Lago breakfast buffet, former President Donald Trump took the podium Thursday morning to reassure Americans that he remains profoundly connected to the daily struggles of the average voter.

“I’m very in touch. Maybe the most in touch. Some people say I’m the most in-touch person they’ve ever seen,” Trump said, waving a crumpled McDonald’s receipt he claimed was “proof” of his street cred. “And I know exactly how much a gallon of eggs costs. It’s… twelve, maybe fourteen dollars. Could be fifteen if they’re deluxe eggs. I buy the best eggs. Tremendous eggs. Gallons of them.”

Though aides nearby whispered urgently into earpieces and stared at the ground with the kind of focus usually reserved for hostages blinking Morse code, Trump continued undeterred.

“I’m just like you,” he said. “I shop at American stores—like Tiffany’s, Gucci, Costco when they let me. I understand hardship. I once had to fly commercial. It was terrible. People were coughing. I had to wear sunglasses.”

“Woke 401(k)s Are Overrated”

Addressing economic concerns, Trump pivoted seamlessly into his bold new vision for retirement: don’t.

“We’re liberating the American people from the shackles of woke retirement plans,” he announced. “Your 401(k)? Full of critical race theory. Your IRA? Probably identifies as non-binary. We’re dismantling it. You’re welcome.”

While financial experts scrambled to decode what, exactly, a “woke” retirement plan entails, Trump elaborated with his usual clarity.

“People don’t want safe investments anymore. They want freedom. We’re replacing your retirement accounts with exciting things. NFTs of bald eagles. Gold coins with my face on them. Real American stuff.”

According to Trump, “People are thanking me. Everywhere I go. They say, ‘Sir, thank you for destroying my Roth IRA. I hated saving. Now I just Venmo a guy named Kyle who promises to invest in solid American muscle cars.’”

“They Love Me in the Bread Aisle”

Asked by a reporter when he last visited a grocery store, Trump responded confidently, “I was just in one. Recently. They have lights, carts, some very nice freezers. I bought a block of milk, a bottle of bread, and a gallon of eggs. That’s how regular people shop, and I’m very regular.”

Despite persistent confusion, Trump remained upbeat.

“Americans are doing great. Better than ever. And I know because I talk to them. I talk to waiters, caddies, people with jobs. Real people. And they tell me, ‘Sir, please lower the minimum wage.’ And I say, ‘You’re welcome.’”

America’s New Motto: “Stop Hitting Yourself”

In a bold rebranding move, the United States has unveiled its new national tagline: “Stop Hitting Yourself.” This comes in the wake of President Donald Trump’s recent tariff implementations, which have left many Americans feeling like they’re in a one-sided playground scuffle—where they’re both the bully and the victim.

A Tariff-ic Strategy

President Trump, in his quest to make America great again (again), has introduced a series of tariffs that have economists scratching their heads and consumers clutching their wallets. The latest round includes a 25% tariff on imported cars and car parts, and additional duties on goods from countries like China, Canada, and Mexico. It’s a move that has been affectionately dubbed “Liberation Day,” presumably because Americans are being liberated from their disposable income.

Economic Gymnastics

These tariffs have led to some impressive economic gymnastics. The S&P 500 took a $1.7 trillion nosedive, with tech giants like Apple and Amazon leading the plunge. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar is performing limbo, hitting a six-month low as fears of stagflation loom. It’s a financial rollercoaster that no one wanted to ride, but here we are, screaming all the way down.

Global Relations: It’s Complicated

Internationally, the U.S. is giving mixed signals. Allies like the EU, UK, and Japan are less than thrilled, with the European Commission preparing countermeasures. It’s the diplomatic equivalent of bringing a skunk to a garden party and wondering why no one wants to dance.

Domestic Discontent

Back home, the Senate is pushing back, with a resolution to block the tariffs on Canadian imports. Even some Republicans are joining the chorus, perhaps realizing that policies causing economic self-harm aren’t the best look heading into election season.

The Verdict

In summary, America’s new tagline reflects a nation at odds with itself, implementing policies that seem to do more harm than good. As we navigate this self-inflicted economic maze, one can only hope we find the exit before we bruise ourselves further.

JD Vance Licks Greenland, Claims It for Trump

In a bold display of foreign policy meets freezer burn, Vice President JD Vance traveled to Greenland, knelt down, gave the ice a hearty lick, and declared, “This tastes like freedom—Trump’s freedom.”

Witnesses report Vance’s tongue stuck briefly to the frozen ground before Secret Service agents poured lukewarm Diet Coke on it to release him. “It was touch and go,” one agent said. “At one point we considered just leaving him there as a monument.”

Greenland officials responded with a polite but firm, “Stop licking our country,” and reminded Vance that Greenland is not a popsicle, nor for sale. Denmark, Greenland’s governing body, issued a statement saying, “No take-backs, even with tongue.”

Meanwhile, Trump praised the move, calling it “the most delicious act of patriotism ever committed,” and hinted that Alaska may be next, “if it smells right.”

Experts warn this may set a dangerous precedent for international relations, or at the very least, for future maps featuring slobber borders.

Elon Musk Asked to Point to Tesla Bot to Show Where Protestors Hurt Him

“Right here,” he sniffled, tapping the robot’s chest. “Right in the innovation.”

In a moment that had Capitol Hill staffers fighting back giggles and secondhand embarrassment, Elon Musk was asked during a congressional hearing to “please point to the Tesla Bot where the protestors hurt you.”

Aides wheeled out one of Musk’s Optimus robots, which had been awkwardly dressed in a suit jacket “for professionalism,” as Musk requested. The robot, expressionless and unaware of the cringe about to unfold, stood stiffly as Musk turned solemn and dramatically lifted a trembling finger.

“They said I was out of touch,” Musk said, gently pressing the bot’s chest. “Right here. That’s where it hurt the most. My… center of disruption.”

He then pointed to the robot’s left arm. “They mocked my tweets. My free speech arm. I use that arm to post memes at 3 AM that change the world.”

Lawmakers, trying their best to maintain decorum, nodded while scribbling things like “therapy?” and “is this performance art?” in their notebooks.

Musk continued, emotion rising. “And here—” he tapped the bot’s shin “—when they laughed at the Cybertruck windows breaking, I felt… like someone keyed my soul. Do you know how hard it is to invent glass that sometimes works?”

The hearing, intended to investigate labor concerns and the growing number of protests outside Tesla factories, derailed quickly into what one senator described as “a middle-school talent show, but the only act is Elon.”

Musk defended himself valiantly. “Do you know how hard it is to be me? I run like, 18 companies. I slept under my desk once. And people still say mean things when the stock drops 15%. I cried one time on TV and now it’s a meme. I’m the real victim here.”

Congress then asked if he could please refocus on worker safety complaints and the reason for the hearing.

Instead, Musk adjusted the Optimus bot’s arm into a high-five position and slapped it weakly.

“This robot,” he whispered dramatically, “understands me more than the American people ever will.”

The hearing adjourned early.

When asked for comment afterward, the Tesla Bot simply said: “Emotion detected: awkwardness.” Then powered down.

GOP Officials Sound Alarm Over Eggplant-Shaped Missiles After Reading Additional Texts

Washington, D.C. — In what can only be described as a stunning blend of national security panic and digital illiteracy, several prominent GOP officials have raised concerns over what they’re calling a “new wave of biologically suggestive ballistic threats” — namely, eggplant-shaped missiles.

The hysteria reportedly began during a late-night group chat among conservative lawmakers, when Rep. Harold Brunsfield (R-TN) shared screenshots of text messages he received from Pete Hegseth. The texts included ominous phrases like, “We’re gonna hit them HARD”, followed by a string of eggplant emojis.

“At first I thought he meant farming subsidies,” Brunsfield said. “Then I saw the emojis. One after another. Eggplant after eggplant. It was… threatening. Suggestive. Possibly nuclear.”

Senator Mitzi Graham (R-AL), chair of the Senate Committee on Misinterpreted Fruit Emojis, was quick to act. “We can’t take chances,” she told reporters. “If our enemies are developing phallic vegetable projectiles, we must respond with cucumber-shaped countermeasures and zucchini diplomacy.”

Hegseth, when reached for comment, said, “I just like the emoji. It’s bold. Firm. American.” He later followed up with a statement on Truth Social, claiming he uses the eggplant “as a symbol of strength, not anything weird, perverts.”

But things escalated when a classified internal memo leaked to the press showed several Republican lawmakers had begun stockpiling screenshots of Hegseth’s messages as evidence of potential eggplant aggression. The memo also suggested a misinterpretation of other emojis, including:

  • The peach emoji, believed by Rep. Lou Danders (R-KY) to indicate “a soft target in Georgia.”
  • The sweating emoji, which Sen. Rick Holster (R-FL) interpreted as “a sign of biological warfare or yoga infiltration.”
  • And the fire emoji, which Rep. Marla Pickens (R-TX) claims is “a coded call to arms from antifa arsonists or possibly a spicy barbecue invite.”

In a final twist, GOP leadership held a closed-door meeting to discuss banning emoji use entirely in congressional correspondence, unless cleared by a newly appointed “Emoji Translator General.”

Meanwhile, Hegseth has doubled down, now ending every segment on Fox News with a wink and a full-screen eggplant. When asked if he was trolling Congress, he replied, “Not at all. But if I were, they’d never know. They still think the poop emoji is a chocolate ice cream swirl.”

America, it seems, is once again divided — this time, over the true meaning of 🍆.
