Capitol Confusion: Government Building Transforms Into Giant Rubik's Cube, Lawmakers Demand Instructions
In a baffling turn of events that has left political insiders scratching their heads, the National Government Building spontaneously transformed overnight into a colossal Rubik's Cube. Witnesses report waking up to find the familiar gray facade replaced by a 3D puzzle of swirling colors, complete with rotating segments and an inexplicable urge to 'solve' the nation's problems—one twist at a time.
"I came in for a budget meeting and ended up stuck in the blue corner," lamented Senator Patty Twistwell. "I tried turning the top layer to pass a bill, but all I got was a headache and a new cabinet reshuffle. If only Congress were as easy to solve as this cube!" The Speaker of the House reportedly attempted to realign the building's layers during a heated debate, resulting in a temporary reshuffling of committee offices—and a very confused janitorial staff.
Government officials have issued a statement assuring citizens that all essential services remain operational, albeit now accessed by physically twisting parts of the building. "We're exploring this innovative new approach to governance," said Press Secretary Lou Rotate. "It's a hands-on method that encourages bipartisan cooperation—because you literally have to work together to align the colors. Plus, it’s a great workout."
Urban planners and puzzle enthusiasts alike are flocking to the site, some bringing speed-solving timers and others just hoping to find the cafeteria, rumored to be hidden behind the elusive green-yellow edge piece. Until the mystery is solved, residents are advised to avoid attempting any complex maneuvers, lest they accidentally send the Treasury Department spinning into the Department of Agriculture.
As the country grapples with this Rubik's radical makeover, one thing is clear: politics may never be the same when the very building demands a twist and a turn. Perhaps the nation's next big policy debate will be over corner algorithms instead of corner offices.
