Impeached 2 is an armchair politician's dream. Play today!

In a jaw-dropping exposé that has sent shockwaves through the political and gaming communities alike, documents leaked to our intrepid investigative team at The Onion Chronicles have unveiled a sinister plot that could redefine the very fabric of our republic. It appears that a group of rogue political scientists, led by the enigmatic Dr. Cheeseburger Philbin, have been secretly manipulating the course of American history using none other than the arcane mechanics of popular strategy games like "Civilization VI" and "Risk."

The plot, dubbed "Operation Endgame," was ostensibly designed to simulate various historical and hypothetical political scenarios. However, our sources allege that the true intent was far more insidious: to identify vulnerabilities in the democratic process and exploit them using strategies gleaned from these games. The goal, we are told, was to "gently guide" the country towards a constitutional crisis, facilitated by a series of catastrophic events that would require unprecedented executive powers to navigate.

Insiders claim that the team, which included a rogue's gallery of disgruntled former aides and an anonymous AI with an advanced understanding of geopolitical dynamics, used complex algorithms to forecast a cascade of global disasters. These would supposedly create the perfect storm of fear and confusion, ripe for the kind of power grabs previously only seen in the most extreme playthroughs of "End Times" modded campaigns.

The plan, which allegedly involved both Democratic and Republican puppet masters, was to enact a series of constitutional amendments that would centralize power in the executive branch, effectively turning the United States into a dictatorship with a charmingly democratic facade. The irony of using games that promote global peace and prosperity to orchestrate a planetary dystopia is not lost on us.

Furthermore, the team is rumored to have employed an army of social media bots, modeled after the legendary "Civilization VI" unit, the Spaceship, to disseminate misinformation and sway public opinion. These bots, with their catchy slogans and pseudonymously penned op-eds, were reportedly capable of initiating viral trends that could tip the scales in the favor of the masterminds behind "Operation Endgame."

As this story unfolds, with high-ranking officials and gaming influencers being pulled into the scandal, Americans are left to ponder the true impact that these strategy games might have on the world stage. Could it be that the next move in global politics has been dictated by a series of dice rolls and strategic decisions made in the virtual realm?

In the wake of this exposé, both political parties have denied any involvement, offering contradictory statements that only add fuel to the fire of speculation. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has agreed to expedite a case that could decide the fate of the Constitution and the role of board games in its interpretation.

Stay tuned to The Onion Chronicles for further developments as this story continues to unfold, and remember, in politics and in gaming, every move can change the course of history. Just make sure your next election isn't rigged by an AI with a penchant for turn-based strategy games
