Robbers Steal 2 Million Dimes in Philadelphia Truck Heist


Federal prosecutors have unsealed charges against four members of a Philadelphia-area truck robbery crew who made off with more than 2 million dimes that were being shipped from the US Mint in Philadelphia to Miami.  The heist took place while the tractor-trailer driver was sleeping in a Philadelphia parking lot.

Well, I guess that pretty much explains why the local “Coinstar” machine was out of order.  Seems these damn coin collectors will do about anything to get their grubby little hands on more coins.  All I can say to these crooks is, “Don't steal that dime - if you can't do the time.”  And I do mean crooks.  I mean, it isn’t like these folks were gonna donate these coins to the “March of Dimes.”  Of course, that’s just my opinion.  I’m just trying to get my two cents worth in.

Was it really worth it?  Well, even if these are a pretty good haul, it isn’t like these coins are “worth a mint.”  Besides, this whole thing sounds more like one of those Nicolas Cage B-movie scripts with a title like “Oceans 7/11.”  Hell, I can see some guy walking into a car dealership saying, “Excuse me, I wanna buy a new Tesla.  Oh, and I’ll be paying with that pallet of dimes over there.”  Oh, sure!  Tesla claims its cars can stop on a dime, but can they be bought with dimes?  That’s the question.

Now, I suppose at this point, a lot of you want to know if the cops were able to recover all of this stolen loot.  Well, the answer is, “Yes, every last dime.”  Frankly, I think by now its pretty apparent that I could keep making these “dime jokes” forever; however, I’ve also come to the realization that these jokes I’m spewing are just a “dime a dozen.”  Hey, wait a minute!  Why - I think I’ve just “coined” a new phrase.  Alright, alright!  I get it.  Enough about the dimes.  So what do you want me to do, “change“ the subject?

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Ordered by Jury to Pay E. Jean Carroll $83 Million

In his second trial in less than a year on the matter, a civil jury in Manhattan took only three hours to decide that disgraced former President Trump must pay $83.3 million in punitive and compensatory damages to rape victim and writer E. Jean Carroll in a drama that began in the dressing room of a New York City department store back in 1995. Gee whiz, $83 million?  Seems it turns out that even “when you're a star, they don't always let you do it.”  Anyway, so the Orange God used his big fat mouth to talk his way out of a $5 million judgment - and right into an $83 million judgment.  Now, that really takes some skill!  Talk about “The Art of the Deal!”  I’m totally impressed.  Why, its almost as if Mr. Trump and his militant, useless attorney don’t fully comprehend the basic point of “punitive damages.”   I mean, at this point, Trump defames Ms. Carroll so frequently, she’s almost gonna need to put up an electronic signboard to alert the court abo...
