Jon Stewart on Fox News’ ‘Lying Dynasty’
Poetic Justice
Pundits say that Trump’s $5,000 midterm bribe was an overreach,
And they agree that if lies were a crime, he’d be impeached.
Despite all the dividend promises he’s made,
The fact is, not one has ever been paid,
So even before the midterms, he already owes us $8,000* each.
*$5000 stimulus checks via “DOGE dividend”; $2000 stimulus checks via a “tariff dividend”; $1000-plus checks via “savings” from expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies

Thanks for the link Russ. It looks like a very long story but one I am interested in. With the next campaign cycle looming (isn’t it always?), I’ve been wondering where the money goes. There’s a huge transfer of wealth (http://www.pensitoreview.com/2011/06/22/another-great-reason-to-get-rid-of-your-tv/) from donors to broadcasters every election — but then what? Is it all just lining the pockets of people like Rupert Murdoch? What do they spend it on? I want to find out.
I mat still have the print version around here if you want…
