Finish the Fight!
Early this morning, the Soviet Minister of Finance gave a speech over radio to the Soviet people. It went as follows: “Comrades and working people of our strong nation, some time ago, the workers of socialist Germany faced brutal aggression from the capitalist enemy. And yet, since then, the snow has fallen twice upon us and the snow has melted twice again, and the socialist Republic of Germany still stands tall. The workers of Germany have fought bravely against the American aggression. They underestimated the willingness of the factory worker in Dresden to take up arms against the enemy. They are paying for that miscalculation today. Our own economy has worked to hold off the assault by the Yankees. A steel worker patriot in Magnitogorsk can rest easy knowing his labor defends the motherland. But we must not rest! Victory is close, but the last stretch is where we must be decisive and firm. We fight to defend all that we have built. We will not lose. Finish the fight!”
I Call on Lyndon 'Civil Wrongs' Johnson to Withdraw his Bill!
During a vacation on the French Riviera with close associates before it falls into Communist hands, Senator Kefauver decried the so-called Civil Rights Bill proposed last week by The President. The Senator called on the President to withdraw the bill immediately, and maybe to also fire the Secretary for Defense while he is at it. Federally imposed 'civil rights' are inherently unconstitutional, and even if this bill is passed by all the corruption in the world, we are sure the Supreme Court would knock it down. The country has never been more exposed to Communist aggression than with it currently is. Stay safe Americans....

Resounding US Victory
The united front of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization just had a resounding victory in the defense of Germany. As the US and her allies are winding down the war, Sec. Todoroki states just one thing, "We are winning so hard that the Soviets will have no choice but to leave Germany forever. This war is close to over and it is the beginning of the end of the Ivanka regime. Hell, we didn't even need to consider our nuclear options." Insiders have yet to obtain any details on the alleged Memorandum of Understanding between the Ivankaist administration and the NATO allies. Sec. Todoroki closed, "The United States military has undertaken a massive and ongoing operation to prevent this very wicked, radical dictatorship from threatening America and our core national security interests." VP Radziwill has confirmed Sec. Todoroki's statements, with resounding joy.

KEFAUVER: "A REPUBLIC, NOT REPUBLICAN, STOP THE STEAL!"
"STOP THE REPUBLICAN STEAL!" - The now immortal words of Sen. James Estes Kefauver, uttered this afternoon on the steps of the Capitol surrounded by his closest advisors. After defending himself from Senator 'DoDo'roki's communist allegations, which he called "clownish", Kefauver caught wind of the attempted rigging of the upcoming House elections. It seems an insurgency of illegally filed so-called Rebpulicans have materialised and are attempting to steal up to an eighth of the House of Representative seats. Kefauver has called for the immediate NULLIFICATION of their candidacy by the authorities in order to restore respect and health to American democratic institutions. Should these people be allowed win it would be downright UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

MEYER QUITS WAR, INSISTS SHE IS “NOT QUITTING”
WASHINGTON, August 1961 | Secretary of Defense Selina Meyer announced today that she will be stepping away from politics indefinitely, following what she described as “a rather exhausting period.” “I think I’ve reached the point where I need to step back, breathe, and reassess,” Meyer said. “I’ve been doing this for a very long time, and frankly, I would like to spend some time somewhere where nobody needs anything from me.” Meyer said she would be traveling to a spa “for a few days,” though officials familiar with the matter said no return date has been discussed. Asked whether the decision had anything to do with the war in East Germany, Meyer became visibly agitated. “No. No, it’s not about that. It’s about me. This is a personal decision. I’m choosing to leave. I am absolutely choosing this.” After a brief pause, she added, “And I’m going to the spa.” Meyer then ended the press conference and reportedly told her aide, Gary Walsh, “Get me out of here.”
