By The Wasted Onion: I'm Going To Overthrow The Government Or Die Trying
Look, I understand that governments exist for a reason. They are there to ensure that we have a functional society and don’t just have a lawless hellscape, and I also know why we have elections; they allow the citizens of nations to decide their future based on what they believe and what they feel is best for their country. It also prevents those who go drunk with power from keeping that power forever.
However, I’m so fucking goddamn pissed that you stupid motherfuckers voted for Kiwi rather than me. What was it? Am I not worthy of the title of wasteof president? Is it because I’m an owl, huh? You morons would vote for a plank of wood if someone stuck googly eyes on it. Like seriously, what’s your problem? You had a perfectly good candidate right here, but no! You just had to go and vote for someone else!
That’s why I am going to do everything in my power to overthrow this incoming government, even if it kills me.
You read that right, I’m going to perform a coup d'état the likes you’ve never seen before. It’s the only option left. The democratic system has failed me, and that means you have left me no choice but to unseat Kiwi from power and make myself your president no matter the cost.
I know what you’re thinking. You think I’m bluffing, but trust me, I am not. I will overthrow this government or die trying. Which will likely be the latter.

By The Wasted Onion: @Leaks Confirms Chance He Overthrows Kiwi Administration Low, Not Necessarily Zero
THE INTERNET—Sharing the latest information from his trusted source, wasteof account @leaks claimed that while the chances of him overthrowing the incoming Kiwi administration was low, it was not necessarily zero. “According to my sources, I can confirm that the chances of Kiwi being overthrown by me is fairly low, but is not completely off the table,” said a post made to the accounts page, refusing to explain exactly how high or low the chances are of a coup devised by the account. “Wait hold on, you’re saying there’s a non-zero chance you will violently overthrow me as president of wasteof? Oh no,” said a worried president-elect Kiwi on his wasteof account Tuesday. Leaks quickly responded, saying that according to his trusted source the chances of a violent insurrection are low, but not impossible. As other members of the social media platform began to chime in, owner Jeffalo said in a post late afternoon that “the only person doing any overthrowing here is me,” before proceeding to elect himself president of wasteof.

Election Coverage: Wasteof Shocks World By Electing Person Not Old As Hell
THE INTERNET—Leaving the world gazing on in awe with their jaws agape from the results pouring in from the social media platform, wasteof.money shocked nations across the globe Monday after it elected someone who isn’t old as hell. “I’m just speechless, you’re telling me there's a place online that's just elected a guy who isn’t primed to be wheeled into the nearest care home and doesn’t have some borderline form of dementia? That’s crazy,” said Martin Fennel, a civil servant during former-President Joe Biden’s tenure at the White House as well as current President Trump’s administration. “Hold on, this new president of this website called wasteof isn’t an old fucking narcissistic asshole who people only use for their own benefit because he’s more easily bought than an assault rifle in the country?” said First Lady Melania Trump in a letter sent written in blood to The Wasted Onion’s office found in the building where the U.S. keeps all the moon landing props. “Just for the record I also am only married to this fucking bastard for the free plane and crypto rugpulls,” said another part of the letter. When asked about the recent election of Kiwi as wasteof’s new president, U.S. President Donald Trump said that he didn’t know what wasteof was, before proceeding to ask if the journalist meant DOGE.
From The Wasted Onion Editorial Board: The Wasted Onion Officially Endorses Kamala Harris For Wasteof President
Throughout its 290-year existence, The Wasted Onion has made endorsing the objectively correct candidate a vital part of its election coverage. From Benito Mussolini to Adolf Hitler, The Only News Source has always made the right call. This institution's editorial board has proven itself to always be correct in every single election to ever happen anywhere ever. Now, with this website at a pivotal point, staring down the canyon of decision, The Wasted Onion faces its own in endorsing a candidate to head the Crack House. That’s why we are officially endorsing Kamala Harris for president of wasteof.money. To our loyal subjects, understand this decision was not an easy one. In these times of assassinations, we must stand above it to say what must be said, unlike supposed “papers of record“ like The New York Times or The Guardian. Kamala Harris is the only sensible choice this election, not just does she know fuck all about this website, she doesn’t even know it exists, which puts her in the perfect position to run it into the ground, which would be a fantastic waste of money. Not just that, but since she is not running in this election, she will be able to handle losing after her failed U.S. presidential bid won by a certain someone. So The Wasted Onion humbly asks you to vote for Kamala Harris, but if that doesn’t pan out we can endorse Hillary Clinton as a backup.
Daily Election Update: On the final day of the election, we are able to report that we are glad the pain is almost over, just a day left of this relentless torture following these halfwits remains.
Updates from the campaign trail:
In a scathing attack against his main rival, Oren posted to wasteof saying “The Kiwi party has now supported terrorism. I call on kiwi to ask thrat to assassinate him, or to stand down from the election. It's only fair kiwi also faces the same fate as tallpeter!”
Posting another graphic styled like an old Apple Macintosh advert, Kiwi claimed that “Only with your vote can we realize the twenty-six-thousand promises we've set out to accomplish over the course of this year.”
Posting to wasteof as well in absolute shock, The-Owlsss wrote “holy shit guys me and the boys just declared bankruptcy by accident. I can still run for president, right?”
It’s been an honour V1 to mention your existence in this race unlike those elitist partisan idiots from the mainstream media, remember how The Wasted Onion never forgot.
After careful analysis by our resident financial experts, it has been determined economically feasible that Pufferfish101007 can achieve their campaign promise to “be cute :3” given current forecasts.
Today WannaBeRose didn’t insult The Only News Source, mainly after seeing how exhausted our cabal of reporters covering each candidate in this race are after running around to keep up with this gruelling never ending bullshit.
Election Coverage: @Kiwi Reminds Voters That He Doesn’t Know Who @Blaze Is
THE INTERNET—Frantically taking to his wasteof profile to respond to rumours swirling around his knowledge regarding the social media platform that originated from his opponent Oren, Kiwi reminded voters Saturday he does not know what or who Blaze is. “I hate to initiate another yapfest, but a good president actually responds to controversy instead of sweeping it under the rug. First of all, I’ve never heard of this Blaze guy in the first place. Them wanting to move wasteof to Wix was something I was completely unprepared for and have no involvement with. I don’t even know what tech Kyle is,” said the post in part Saturday evening. “Secondly, you’re right, Blaze is a weird website. I hereby pledge to never make ties with Blaze. Thirdly, vote for the candidate that doesn’t accuse random candidates of wanting to move wasteof over to Wix alongside Blaze. Vote for Kiwi.” Fellow candidate Oren quickly responded, writing to his wasteof page claiming “The Kiwi party knows who Blaze is. I heard them murmuring about that weird crypto coin they released. I call on Kiwi to denounce Blaze, or to stand down from the election. Vote Oren for no Wix sites!” At press time, Blaze made a post on its wasteof account claiming it does not use Wix to host its site, but rather an Acer Chromebook 11 from 2016.

ICYMI: Wimbledon Player Issued Violation For Un-British Display Of Emotion
https://theonion.com/wimbledon-player-issued-violation-for-un-british-display-of-emotion/
Daily Election Update: After the assassination of TallPeter, candidates have been sending condolences as well as soberly reflecting on whether they’re also screwed.
Updates from the campaign trail:
Posting an image of himself to wasteof wearing a balaclava and sunglasses as well as making gestures to the camera, voters are now confused as to whether Oren is an ICE agent or a member of MS13 that needs to be sent to El Salvador.
Apologising for writing excessively long posts on wasteof, Kiwi has promised to rewrite all of his posts into Wingdings to win back voters.
Forgetting they were still on the air on lesser news outlet MSNBC, The-Owlsss said “I ain’t scared of any assassins! I’ve played all the Assassin Creed games! Yeehaw!”
Hello Thrat, we here in The Wasted Onion newsroom saw your post admitting to murdering TallPeter and that you may kill Oren if we don’t write about you. Well, here you are, you are in The Only News Source, soak up all that attention you crave and heed the killings.
Through these turbulent times, V1 is still mentioned in The Wasted Onion unlike those slackers at CNN and Fox News.
In a shocking revelation, Pufferfish101007 has not added more to their manifesto at a later date even though it is now a later date.
WannaBeRose didn’t have time to insult us today due to mourning the loss of TallPeter, a truly towering tall guy taller than all the other tall people who are tall but not as tall as TallPeter.
By The Wasted Onion: Wumpus Files For Bankruptcy After Years Of Underpayment By Discord
SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Sobbing outside a local law firm with cartoon flies coming out of his pockets, Discord mascot Wumpus filed for bankruptcy Saturday after years of underpayment from the messaging service. “I can’t fucking do this man, I’m gonna lose my house. My wife has fucking left me and took the goddamn kids! She took everything on her way out other than Nibbles over there,” said Mr. Wumpus in an interview with The Wasted Onion at his home which had multiple couples viewing the home. “Those assholes over at Discord paid me jackshit! You’d think that being the face of the company would warrant a good wage, but not in this economy. They are paying me in server boosts! What the hell am I meant to do with those?” A Discord spokesperson who was hunted down by The Wasted Onion said that “we deny that we pay Mr. Wumpus in server boosts, we pay him in avatar decorations.” Towards the end of the interview, Mr. Wumpus’s wife Mrs. Wumpus entered the home and hurriedly grabbed the family pet cat Nibbles before leaving without saying a word, leaving Mr. Wumpus bawling like a baby.

Statement From Clef Bozos, CEO Of The Wasted Onion: I and everyone else at The Wasted Onion would like to send our deepest condolences to TallPeter, his family, friends and running mate Dertermenter. Unfortunately due to being a heartless mega-corporation and monopoly, our condolences are as deep as a puddle, but as the old saying goes, it's the thought that counts, and we think real big here at The Only News Source. Effective immediately, we will withdraw all of our lawsuits against TallPeter and will donate the money from our puppy mill business to the Little People For America charity. We are also appalled to hear that TallPeter was shot near one of our trillion offices, violence is never the answer, unless the violence is against a Palestinian. Finally, while I and TallPeter had our ups and downs over the course of this campaign, I always respected his unwavering commitment to stature, and that is what we here at The Wasted Onion strive for in our reporting, the stature to say and do shit no one could even imagine. May TallPeter rest easy knowing he has a permanent mark on us, in every orifice of our bodies, even the forbidden ones.
ICE Has Gall To Leave Raided Restaurant Negative Review
https://theonion.com/ice-has-gall-to-leave-raided-restaurant-negative-review/
Daily Election Update: Today candidates were busy on the campaign trail trying to rack up more votes in the final days of the election while also yapping way too fucking much.
Updates from the campaign trail:
Posting to wasteof today, Oren said “Guess who just voted for Oren and grunklebillsback? My mom did. That means now one of my parents has voted for us. They know that an Oren-grunkle presidency is the way forward for wasteof.”
Kiwi was locked into a posting frenzy with Oren’s running mate GrunkleBillsBack over their differing policies. We trawled through their posts to cut beyond the noise and tell our readers the important takeaway from this conversation: fucking nothing.
The-Owlsss obeyed The Only News Source and thanked us for our world-class journalism. In return we will continue our news assault upon the entire world’s population.
Due to yet again failing to retract his threat to ban The Wasted Onion’s journalist’s from the Oval Office if elected, TallPeter has gotten even shorter.
Don’t worry, V1 is still being mentioned in The Wasted Onion, unlike those hacks at lesser news outlets like The Associated Press or The New York Times.
Pledging to make wearing cat ears on Friday’s mandatory, which has been seen as a swipe at the Democratic party establishment, Pufferfish101007 was seen yelling “Dear liberals, nyaa!”
WannaBeRose has yet to hurt our feelings in any meaningful way. What? These aren’t tears, something just got in our eyes!
