In a baffling turn of events that has left both politicians and janitors scratching their heads, the nation's central government building mysteriously transformed overnight into a colossal 3D Rubik's Cube. Eyewitnesses reported waking up to the familiar sound of fluorescent lights humming, only to find the entire structure had sprouted vibrant red, blue, and yellow panels, all twisting and turning independently.

"At first, I thought it was a new art installation," said local resident and part-time conspiracy theorist, Betty L. Crankshaw. "But then the building started to rotate on its own, and I realized—this wasn't just art, it was a puzzle. A really, really complicated one."

Government officials were equally perplexed. Press Secretary Tim O'Tangle stated, "We are currently consulting with top puzzle experts and the Department of Unsolvable Problems. Our priority is to restore the building to its original rectangular shape, but frankly, some departments seem to prefer the cube—it’s supposed to improve legislative efficiency by making people literally 'think outside the box.'"

Meanwhile, members of Congress have reportedly taken to using the cube's twists as a metaphor for political debates. "Every time we try to pass a bill, the building shifts," explained Senator Polly Tix. "I think the cube is reflecting our legislative gridlock—although, to be honest, it might just be the building mocking us."

As the building spins and twists, citizens have been encouraged to submit their own solutions via an online app called 'Solve Our Capitol.' Early suggestions include painting each side with inspirational quotes, replacing committee meetings with speedcubing contests, and installing a giant timer to see who can 'untangle' the government first.

In the meantime, tourists have flocked to the site, snapping selfies with the rotating Rubik's Cube Capitol. Local souvenir shops report brisk sales of miniature puzzles and themed coffee mugs labeled "Government: Still Unscrambled."

Whether this is a cosmic joke or a clever metaphor, one thing's clear: the government building has officially achieved the status of the world's largest—and most bureaucratically confusing—puzzle. Stay tuned for updates, but don’t expect to see any quick resolutions. After all, some things are meant to be twisted.
