Super Tiff a ‘dictator’
IT’S not just Republicans who are repugnant in America.
A horde of irate residents in Dolton, Illinois, last week demanded the resignation of the selfproclaimed “Super Mayor” Tiffany Henyard.
It’s difficult to know where to begin with the Democrat as she battles scandals of sexual assault and embezzlement, all of which have earned her the nickname of “Dolton Dictator.”
The town’s monthly board meeting descended into chaos as 100 people banged on doors while dozens of others testified against cocky Henyard, leading the four trustees to walk out. Not only has money gone missing, but she’s always looked after her own. Henyard has taken on a former campaign worker as the area’s code enforcement officer – despite the fact he is a convicted child rapist. ★★★★★

Surveillance footage captured in Willowick showed the moment the hangry gunman flipped out, pointing a gun at Howard Vernon, who was working in the drive-thru.

BROWN rats crawled off ships earlier than previously thought and quickly out-competed rival black rats to take over North American cities, new research suggests. ★★★★★
CONS in New York filed a lawsuit against prison bosses over the decision to lock down prisons for yesterday’s total solar eclipse.
The suit argued the lockdown violated inmates’ constitutional rights to practise their faiths by preventing them from taking part in a religiously significant event.
AND FINALLY...
BACK home and out in Norman’s dog park, the torrential rain we’ve had hasn’t dampened anyone’s chutzpah. My friend Kristen told one guy last week that she “wasn’t silent because she didn’t agree but just being polite” or that she was “too stunned by your stupidity to even respond”.
