Sears Takes Tool Giant TTI To Court As Suppliers Flee

Sears, the ailing official retailer of the original American Great,1 has pre-emptively taken tool giant Techtronic Industries (TTI) to court in order to stave off inevitable supply contract renegotiations. TTI has grown to supply the bulk of power tools sold under retailer specific private label brands including many sold as part of the Craftsman brand that Sears recently sold to Stanley Black and Decker. Naturally the combination of Sears dwindling ability to pay vendors and the natural aversion to producing products for one's chief competitor has placed Techtronics in a situation that makes reconsidering its relationship with Sears desirable.

This news comes as Sears lost a five year old patent case against a smaller vendor whose product design they had ripped off and sold under their former Craftsman brand. In five short years Sears has gone from the large retailer bullying smaller vendors to the small retailer trying to bully vendors they helped to make larger than themselves.

Once again it appears that abusing a relic of the original American Great has succeeded in turning billions into millions.

Starbucks Fiat Point Of Sale System Goes Down

A "technology update" for point-of-sale systems at registers has left a number of Starbucks stores in the United States and Canada unable to process electronic payments today, leaving the affected stores no choice but to accept filthy physical fiat. Customers naturally flocked to social media to vent their outrage, leading some stores to give away free coffee to placate the caffeine deprived mob. A company spokeswoman said "We are working swiftly to resume full operations in each of these stores".

New Plastic (Definitely Not Sterling) UK Pound Notes Cut Noses

Fiat turned potentially deadly this week as it was reported that some cocaine aficionados in the United Kingdom were left with nasal cuts after using the new polymer 5 pound notes to sniff the drug. Cheekily referred to as "being Winstoned" (Due to Winston Churchill's mug adorning the notes), the practice could increase the spread of infections or blood-borne pathogens if the note is used by multiple users.

Zooko Proposes Undermining Already Questionable Privacy Measure While Remaining Complete

Zcash creator Zooko stated on twitter that he believes he can "successfully make Zcash too traceable for criminals … while still being completely private and fungible". Zooko seems blissfully aware of what constitutes an oxymoron instead opting to be a moron on social media by taking cues from everyone's favorite crypto scammer and snake-oil salesman Gavin Andresen.

Doge Doldrums Drum On

This weeks revelation that Dogecoin Tipbot creator Mohland stole all user funds from the service has resulted in shibes becoming a laughingstock across the wider internet, even on sites that formerly hailed the scam as "fun". Dogecoin creator Jackson Palmer returned from the dead and made a reddit post where he outlines steps for the future to the ever-shrinking userbase, all the while never mentioning the outright theft that occurred. Dogecoin price has plummeted to 1/10th of a cent and ranks at #15 on coinmarketcap.com, having fallen from its once prominent position on the site as a top 5 altcorn.

Fiat Ram Trucks May Smash Their Operators

Reluctant to relinquish its tried and true status as THE day-late-dollar-short member of not yet Great Again American automakers;  Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) announced today that it would be following in the footsteps of General Motors in recalling a great many of its great trucks for a "software error" that could end in a smushy death.

Affecting RAM 1500 and 2500 trucks built from 2013-2016 as well as big mother RAM 3500 trucks built from 2014-2016, over one million units will be recalled starting next month, significantly more than the number affected by FCA's Hot Death but only a quarter of GM's numbers from 2016.

The Dodge "software error" has been implicated in at least one death to date when side airbags and seat belt pretensioners failed to activate following an underbody collision leading to a vehicle rollover. No word on whether Dodge's engineers were also responsible for bugs in other TBTF products of Not Yet Great Again. Also no word on whether Herr Trump is planning to extend his recent Executive Order to include automakers but it would be pretty sweet if he did.

Fake News Still Fixated On Comey Firing: US Lamestream Media Burning Last Vestiges Of Credibility In Confusing C-Words

The plurality of reasons presented by representatives of the US Trumpreich for firing pandering politruck FBI Director and JWZ James Comey are being abused by the fake news media as supposedly being "contradicting reasons" for the firing. The malicious misrepresentation of the concordant set of reasons to fire James Comey instead as a mess of contradictions is most damning self indictment the US fake news media has imposed upon itself in all of its opposition to The Great Again so far.

Much as a chronically tardy, kleptomaniac, and freelancing salesman can only be fired once though their offences include failure to report to work, theft, and poaching their employer's customers for their personal MLM affiliate links; James Comey could only be fired once though the reasons to do so are legion.

While the opposition party was shovelling their credibility into the fire, President Trump issued an executive order holding US agency heads responsible for successful attacks against their information systems. This marks continued positioning by those who would have The Great Again over those who would have not.

Comey Out At FBI: Swamp Thrashes As Guileless People Pleasing Politruck Fired

Pathologically people pleasing politruck James Comey was fired as director of the FBI by US President Donald Trump. Comey's career became terminal when he decided to oscillate between attempts to please his pantsuit daddy and his Great Again daddy while only angering them both. As an FBI Director and a JWZ  who undertook a quantum experiment in programmatically pandering approval eigenstates, his departure is being met with confused wailing, gnashing, and thrashing inside the US capitol swamp.

The firing comes after ongoing hearing have cleared the non-deterministic director of usefulness to anyone while establishing his allegiance to the anti-truth.

Other promising developments in the swamp draining effort include President Trump nominating a slate of promising young jurists to fill lower court vacancies, and continuing to set the stage for a fall budgetary government shutdown to better beat the pants off of pantsuit interests.

Dogecointipbot Creator Admits Constant Embezzlement While Shutting Down Service: Sorry For Your Loss

Reddit user /u/mohland, creator of Dogecointipbot, announced on the r/dogecoin subreddit Monday that he had been scamming users since at least 2015 by diverting funds deposited into into /u/dogetipbot into his own ventures and would be shutting the service down. He was quick to reassure that at least their Sorry For Your Loss wasn't due to a hack and that he was going to publish the dogecointip bot code, sure to inspire the next generation of reddit scammers, and which is ultra-secure because it "never had an external hot wallet breach in the 3.5 years we've been running". Hacks that occurred on individual reddit accounts drained the tipbot hot wallet forcing /u/mohland to admit he could no longer keep the flaming tire burning in this particular shitpit any longer. Users of the service were reporting losses in the tens of dollars.

Mohland has been forced to declare Chapter 7 bankruptcy, finally fulfilling the prophecy in Trilema where it was stated that anyone "investing" in the scheme would be dancing in the streets for nickels. The announcement closed by stating that he does not "personally hold no cryptocurrencies nor do I have any desire to in the future". Reddit users have grabbed pitchforks and threatened litigation, though in typical fashion most users will likely forget about it all by next week when the next ponzicoin grabs their attention. Sorry for your loss.

Nuclear Waste Storage Tunnel Collapses At Hanford Site

A train tunnel storing rail cars full of radioactive waste at the Hanford Site in the north-western United States collapsed this morning. The collapse occurred in the PUREX plutonium extraction region of the government created nuclear wasteland. Meanwhile, off the Columbia River Seattle mayor Ed Murray has proposed levying a 1.75 to 2 cent per fluid ounce tax on sweetened beverages in order build funds to so that he might diminish the status of the 70% of Seattle's population with white skin.
