Story 2: Biden Promises Nationwide Mask Mandate And Womandate

Summary: In light of recent events, Biden has updated his COVID plan to include not just a mask mandate, but a mask womandate as well. In a prepared statement given to his nurse and posted on Twitter, the completely legitimate and unquestioned president-elect apologized for the sexist language in his plan.

Real story: Hilarity ensued when House Democrats opened up the 117th session of congress with an opening prayer from Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Missouri, minister at the St. James United Methodist Church, a prayer made in the name of \u201cthe monotheistic god, Brahma, and god known by many names by many different faiths,\u201d which ended with AMEN and A-WOMAN.

Amen is not gendered. It is from Hebrew and means It means \u201cit is so\u201d or \u201cso it be.\u201d Amen is derived from the Hebrew \u0101m\u0113n, which means \u201ccertainty,\u201d \u201ctruth,\u201d and \u201cverily.\u201d

Other ways on which Rep. Cleaver has updated his speech.

Real story: Cosmopolitan Magazine is featuring on its cover very overweight women as the picture of health with the main story being \u201811 women on why wellness doesn\u2019t have to be one-size-fits-all.\u201d
