PresiDented Donald ("Extra mayo!" ) Trump is tweeting: "AFTER TWO YEARS AND MILLIONS OF PAGES OF DOCUMENTS (and a cost of over $30,000,000), NO COLLUSION! At that price we could have two military parades. One on July 4 and one on my birthday. Sad."

"Did you hear the one about . . .?" . . . Please come CAPTION Intel Committee's Chris Stewart!!




Christ ("Never to early to lie, no, nor too late to disseminate" ) Stewart is saying: "After all, journalists disappear all the time, Brianna. Did you hear about the reporter who was walking down the street and suddenly turned into a drugstore? . . . But all joking aside, it's like an occupational hazard or part of their genes. You know: trailer parks draw tornadoes and journalists disappear. . . . That's just the way things are."

Jerome ("I put put the 'i' in 'lie.'" ) Corsi is saying, "I'm telling you now, Ari, that I was lying then even when I swore I was telling the truth, but I'm not lying now when I swear I'm telling the truth, I promise. . . . It's simple to tell the difference: then was then and now is now, at least until now becomes then and there's a new now when I can again swear I'm telling the truth about lying then which happens to be now. . . . See, Ari?"

PresiDented ("'Global Warming?' I've heard a lot of people calling it 'Scam Gate!'" ) Trump is saying: "Look. I've got a great degree from a great school, right? Better than these government scientists, who are all part of the swamp if you ask me . . . . Anyway, and I've thought about this for well over fifty years. . . . And the data keeps changing, by their own admission. . . . We should just call it 'Data Change' instead of 'Climate Change,' and just wait until it changes back. . . . You've never heard them say that, have you? . . . I tell you, I've thought this through. . . . There's nothing to worry about."

About skip fox

I am retired, now a professor emeritus at University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where I taught in the English department for 37 years. I've written 4 chapbooks and 5 full-sized books (all listed as poetry though many include other genres as well), including _Sheer Indefinite: Selected Poems, 1991-2012 (Univ. of New Orleans Press, 2012). I've also written a 500+ page bibliography of three contemporary poets: Robert Creeley, Ed Dorn, and Robert Duncan. I am writing now, both fiction and poetry, more now than ever. My first vote for President of the United States was for Dick Gregory in 1968 (Bowling Green, Ohio). Favorite quote: "It's easy to be an idealist if you don't have to mind the evidence, but no one said it was supposed to be easy" (Richard LaPauvre).
