NEWS WEAKLY – 20th September, 2024
Description:
In this special Friday edition of News Weakly, we tackle the absurd and dangerous antics of Trump’s latest assassination attempt, Hezbollah’s outdated communication devices, and the never-ending saga of Labor vs. Greens over housing policy. Join Sami Shah as he punches the news in the headlines, weakly, and with all the sarcasm you’ve come to love.
Top Stories of the Week:
White Men Can’t Assassinate!
- In the latest assassination attempt on Donald Trump, another white man flubs the job. Sami breaks down what went wrong and questions why white men have lost their edge when it comes to political assassinations. Meanwhile, Trump’s friendship with conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer raises even more eyebrows.
Hezbollah Needs Palm Pilots!
- Israel steps up its game by blowing up Hezbollah’s pagers—yes, pagers. Sami discusses how Hezbollah’s insistence on using 90s technology led to this bizarre twist in Middle Eastern conflicts, and why they should probably stay away from rotary phones and two cans with a string.
Labor and Greens Refuse to Share House!
- The housing crisis gets political as Labor and Greens clash over rental freezes and homeownership schemes. Sami imagines a sitcom-style scenario where both parties share a house—complete with plenty of awkward misunderstandings and political jabs.
Quote of the Week:
"White guys always think they’re the main character. It’s not their fault—that’s what movies tell them." - Sami Shah, on the failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
