WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – “I don’t consider Republicans enemies; they’re friends.”

With these words, Vice President Joe Biden announced that he has decided not to seek the Democratic nomination for president.  At the same time he formally endorsed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

“The other team is not the enemy,” he said Tuesday night during dinner remarks at the Four Seasons hotel in Washington. “If you treat it as the enemy there is no way we can ever ever solve the problems we have to.”

In making the announcement at the White House Rose Garden, Biden chastised Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders for distancing themselves from President Obama in their respective campaigns.

“Our country needs four or eight more years of Obama, and only Trump has the audacity to continue with the accomplishments of the present administration — from health care and immigration reform to marriage equality and better opportunities for the middle class,” the vice president said.

Biden’s endorsement of Trump could only mean one thing: that Trump will be the Republican nominee for president and will win by a landslide against either Clinton or Bernie Sanders in the general elections.

DONALD TRUMP TO CHALLENGE SUPERMAN’S DUAL CITIZENSHIP

Leave a comment

CaptureLAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – Well, it appears that Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump is not only a self-proclaimed birther and an opponent of  birth tourism (a.k.a. ‘anchor babies’); he is also against dual citizenship.

Case in point:  Trump says that if elected president, he will issue an executive order that would revoke Superman’s dual citizenship.

While Superman has apparently renounced his U.S. citizenship in favor of being an honorary citizen of every country in the world, Kent Clark has chosen to retain his. That makes Superman/Clark a dual citizen.

“Superman can’t have the best of both worlds,” Trump said. “He is either a U.S. citizen or an undocumented alien.”

While many countries allow dual citizenship for its natural-born population, the United States does not formally recognize such status for U.S. citizens.

‘SOUTH PARK’ SUES YELP FOR $20 MILLION

Leave a comment

imageSAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Yelp Inc. has filed a $10 million dollar lawsuit against the creators of South Park, seeking damages caused by the latest episode of the popular television show which lampooned the customer review and local business rating website.

In response, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, creators of the animated series, filed a $20 Million counter lawsuit claiming that by suing South Park, Yelp has caused them irreparable emotional distress and unnecessary creative distraction.

South Park is also asking the court to order Yelp to pay an additional $10 Million for the publicity received by the rating website as a result of the TV episode.

Paul Horner, who is a spokesman for Yelp, promised to contest the counter lawsuit and urged all Yelp users and critics to go online and give South Park a rating of 1/2 star (out of a possible 5).

Both the Internet and Television worlds are closely watching the lawsuit and counter lawsuit, describing them as a classic battle between “Goliath” and “Goliath.”
