from Ballot with Patrick Gutfield - Where Politics Meets Pop Culture · host Political Humor Today's News / Caloroga Shark Media

This weekend was a rollercoaster of bizarre news. Hooters, the iconic restaurant chain known for its "assets," may be filing for bankruptcy after 42 years, struggling to keep their business afloat. Meanwhile, Donald Trump held court at CPAC, spending 75 minutes boasting, taunting enemies, and basking in his supporters' adoration, with some even calling him the greatest president of all time. And in a bold move, Elon Musk threatened to fire federal employees who don't report their work in 5 bullet points by Monday night, sparking outrage from unions and legal experts.
