Alex Joshua Horn and Johnathan Anthony Porche, both 19 and from Bayou Black, remained in jail Wednesday on charges of shoplifting and possessing or making a bomb. Both were arrested Sunday evening.

Satire ahead, White House Staffer Invokes Executive Privilege at Check-Out Counter by Minerva

WASHINGTON, DC – A White House staffer was the subject of a minor incident at a local supermarket on Friday after his assertion of executive privilege at a check-out counter led to a temporary impasse.

According to eye-witnesses, the staffer, a senior justice department aide, was beginning his check-out at the register when he was confronted with the question “paper or plastic?”

The question drew a blank stare for more than a minute, prompting the cashier to repeat the question, this time more slowly.  At that point, according to witnesses, the staffer grew agitated and began a long rambling response.

After a few minutes, his response resolved into a repeated statement that he was unable to answer the question, and that he would have to assert “executive privilege.”
