New Mexico Candidate Sues Beavis and Butthead Over Endorsement
Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Deb Haaland, has filed suit in New Mexico district court to quell the public announcement that her former high school classmates, TV stars Beavis and Butthead, have officially endorsed her for governor. The rocking duo made the announcement alongside the long-awaited announcement that the Beavis and Butthead show will return to TV in 2026.
The famous pair, who were high school classmates with Haaland at Albuquerque’s Highland High School in the late 1970’s, said that they endorsed Haaland because she is a Highland Hornet and has had multiple DUI arrests. During RRNN's interview with the iconic pair, Butthead said:
“I talked to her once at a campaign rally. I was there scoring some weed. I asked her if she liked AC/DC and she said some political stuff that I think meant she did. I told her that she was cool, and that if someone will help me read the voting ballot, I’ll vote for her. She said that as a Highland Hornet herself, she understood my inability to read and fully supports the New Mexico school system. She told me to just watch any of her congressional hearings and I’d feel a lot better about my own inabilities.”
In Haaland’s announcement of the pending lawsuit against Mr. Beavis and Mr. Head [sic] she states that she does remember the conversation with Mr. Head, but that she misunderstood his question about liking AC/DC. She claims that she only told him that she served as chair of the Congressional LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus, so she probably is in favor of AC/DC people. She claims to not have been cool enough to be an AC/DC fan in high school. To emphasize this, Haaland wore a Winger T shirt during the press conference announcing the lawsuit.
In late breaking news, Beavis and Butthead have retracted their endorsement after seeing Haaland in the Winger T shirt, citing their long-held belief that Winger is a wussy band. In turn, Haaland agreed to drop her lawsuit after finding out that Beavis and Butthead are jobless drug addicts, like many of her backers. As a gesture of goodwill, she has assured them that if she is elected, she will provide full government financial support so that they may maintain their cool rocker lifestyle. She has also reached out to the band AC/DC to play her inaugural celebration. As of this writing, Haaland's team says the band has not responded.
