Police: Man agreed to pay prostitute with a hamburger.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A New Mexico man is facing charges after police said he agreed to pay an undercover officer posing as a prostitute with a hamburger.

Dominic Calderon was arrested Tuesday in Albuquerque, police said in court documents.

According to a criminal complaint, the 36-year-old Calderon approached the undercover officer while riding his bike and asked her how much she charged. When Calderon said he didn’t get paid until Friday, the officer said he could pay with his burger and he agreed, court documents said.

He was arrested and charged with patronizing prostitutes.

OMG!!!!! Burger King ad uses....the D-WORD!!!!!

Conservative group One Millions Moms is accusing Burger King of airing an “inappropriate” ad that “crosses the line.” The ad in question is for the Impossible Whooper, the vegetarian burger it launched in August.

One Million Moms is taking issue with a moment in the commercial when, as they write, “One man is completely shocked that the burger is not beef, so he uses the d-word to describe how he feels about himself for being deceived by the taste of the burger.”

The “d-word” referenced is “damn.” After taking a bite the man says, “damn that’s good.”

One Million Moms is a division of the American Family Association — which has been named a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center because of its stance on LGBTQ issues— and calls itself an organization for moms who are, “fed up with the filth many segments of our society, especially the entertainment media, are throwing at our children.” The organization has less than 100,000 Facebook followers but recently made headlines for igniting strong backlash to a Zola ad that aired on the Hallmark Channel and included a lesbian couple kissing. The ad was temporarily removed in response to the outcry, before the Hallmark CEO apologized and reinstated it.

With respect to the Burger King ad, One Million Moms has started a petition to have it removed from the air; so far roughly 8,500 people have signed it.

“Burger King’s Impossible Whopper ad is irresponsible and tasteless. It is extremely destructive and damaging to impressionable children viewing the commercial,” the organization writes in their call to action. “We all know children repeat what they hear.”
(Imagine their reaction when their kids repeat what they hear from the p****grabber, who they worship)

This is not the first time that the organization has targeted Burger King. In May 2019, they protested against Burger King’s “Real Meals” campaign which employed the term “DGAF” and the word “pissed.”

So far Burger King has not made a statement in response to One Million Moms and did not immediately reply to Yahoo’s request for comment.

Former Mrs. Florida, a MAGAt, jailed a month for stealing her mom's SS checks.

A federal judge in Florida has ordered Mrs. Florida 2016 to spend a month in jail for stealing her mother's Social Security checks rather than using the money to pay for nursing home care.

Karyn Turk, 47, was also sentenced on Thursday to five months of house arrest when she gets out of prison, and must perform 100 hours of community service in a nursing home, the Palm Beach Post reported.

Turk's adoptive mother died in June at the age of 83, after suffering Alzheimer's and dementia. A court-appointed guardian accused Turk of using her mother's Social Security checks to promote her dream of appearing on 'The Real Housewives of Palm Beach' and to garner publicity.

The guardian accused Turk of using the money to rent large homes and buying tables at fancy equestrian events.

KY Woman Arrested Trying To Pass Off Dog Urine As Her Own During Drug Test

PINEVILLE, Ky. (LEX 18) — On Monday, a woman was arrested after she tried to pass off dog urine as her own to her probation officer.

Police responded to the Bell County Probation and Parole Office and spoke with officers, who advised that Julie Miller, 30, of Arjay, was at the office for her regular probation visit.

As part of her supervision, Miller was asked for a drug screen. One officer told another that Miller had sneaked in a sample of urine to pass it off as her own. An officer asked Miller if the urine was hers and she admitted that it was not and that it was her dog's urine.

She admitted to officers that she brought it in because she knew she would fail a drug test. Miller told officers that she had used meth and suboxone.

Miller was arrested and taken to the Bell County Detention Center, where she was charged with tampering with physical evidence.

She was also served a probation violation and with trafficking in a controlled substance warrant

MWGA - Make Women Great Again!

Coming this May, to a convention center of some kind in Orlando, Florida, the most repulsive and least self-aware men on the entire internet will come together to finally teach women a lesson.

A lesson in how to be the women of their dreams.

Yes! For the low, low price of $1,999 a ticket ($999 a ticket and a plus one if you act now!), you can learn all of the secrets to reeling in the kind of man who sits on YouTube all day whining about how women aren't all barefoot and pregnant anymore. Men like Stefan Molyneux, Mike Cernovich, and organizer Anthony Dream Johnson (who claims he is the 1st President of the Manosphere), along with a bunch of other creepy dudes you've never even heard of and definitely have no interest in speaking to for more than five minutes, never mind marrying.

The conference is called The 22 Convention (We do not know why!) and features the tagline "Make Women Great Again." According to the website, it is "destined to be the mansplaining event of the century."

Oh boy!

What I have learned, just from this website, is that allllllll of the women today are extremely unhappy because feminism told us that we had to be men and were not allowed to be feminine!


Hiding under a mask of fake progress, feminism today has become a radical assault on all forms of positive femininity - you know, the one hard coded into your DNA. Through an onslaught of anti-feminine propaganda spanning generations, women today have been pushed to act like men and DENY their own feminine nature. This has left millions of women feeling unhappy, confused, frustrated, and hopeless. At The 22 Convention, you will learn the truth that unhealthy militant feminists have been hiding from you your entire life. I want to be outraged, but I'm just giggling too hard right now. We're not unhappy (at least not for that particular reason), but they so desperately want us to be. In their sad little YouTube fantasy lives, we're all sitting around pining for them and going "Oh why oh why did we choose to work when we could have been barefoot and pregnant and married to a man who YouTubes all day about how much he hates women?"

And to be clear, that is pretty much the only kind of man you are going to get with tips like these. No normal man in this day and age is sitting around pining for a Barbara Billingsly LARPer. I mean, look at this lady here. She's driving herself up the damn wall to be the perfect 1950s housewife and her husband is so obviously weirded out by it that all he can muster is "Uh, have fun at your tea party?"

The conference plans to teach women all kinds of important things. For instance, did you know that instead of having careers and lives, we could just be baby factories?
