A group of witches has come together to try to stop the re-election of President Trump.
A super PAC of witches and lay practitioners have joined forces with IXNAY PAC, an anti-Trump political action group.
IXNAY PAC was founded two years ago by former Vice correspondent Trace Crutchfield, promising to “raise hell from sea to shining sea” to get Trump and his allies out of office.
“Since IXNAY was founded in 2018, we have utilized the bag of tricks more commonly associated with super PACs,” says Crutchfield. “We’ve run TV ads and targeted Facebook campaigns, organized people to send thousands of handwritten postcards to voters in swing states, run a phone bank operation, and have put no shortage of printed propaganda out into the streets of America. Hell, we even wrote a pop song! Magic was just about the only thing we hadn’t tried, so when faced with another four years of Trump, we thought it would be foolish not to utilize every legal and ethical means at our disposal.”
IXNAY has joined forces with Shane Bugbee , Bugbee is a reverened of the Church of Satan by church founder Anton LaVey and helped found the Satanic Temple. Bugbee says he’s been practising witchcraft for 40 years, after he sold his soul to the devil as a teenager in exchange for a new bike and the latest Ozzy Osborne record.

As Covid cases have begun to rise in the UK the government has taken the steps to impose regional lockdowns. However, this has caused anger for many just returning to business after weeks of lockdown and uncertainty.
Two weeks ago when the Prime Minister was asked about the restrictions in the north of England he was unable to give the correct answer. Many have said this points to the fact the restrictions are too complicated.
In the devolved regions of the UK the restrictions are different again. Scotland has just seen the central belt region have the harshest restrictions in the UK imposed. With hospitality shut down. Business owners have warned many of them will not be able to reopen. There is also widespread anger that regions have been shut down where little or no Covid has been reported.
Politicians in the UK have warned the British public to expect more of the same, and probably harsher restrictions as the winter months and flu season begins. However, as guidelines become more complicated, and businesses and jobs are hit hard will the public comply?

The newspaper has also condemned liberals for taking the moral high ground in wishing the President well.
Emily Cassel Editor-in-Chief, wrote “So President Trump and the First Lady have COVID. Man, anyone else just in a really, inexplicably good mood this morning?”
She went on to say,
“Trump was in Minnesota [on] Wednesday for an enormous outdoor rally in Duluth and a big ol’ indoor Twin Cities fundraiser with some of the state’s wealthiest GOP donors. (Gee, I sure hope those billionaires are alright!!!),” she wrote.
“Meanwhile, feeling a hit of dopamine for the first time since … March? 2016? … It’s the first time in a really long time scrolling isn’t inherently doomscrolling,”
Cassel is not the only liberal to take delight in the diagnosis. Some have gone as far as to hope for the President’s death. One tweeted: “I think I speak for everyone when I say that it would be insanely funny if he died of the coronavirus,”
