The piece below is the last one in the book. You've previously seen the first halfEnjoy,Paul or Zen Bastard or RumpleforeskinAlternative FactsBetween the choice of a one-man-one-vote (Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia) and fake news of Weaponsof Mass Destruction, invasion of Iraq, and horror of ISIS, George Bush was elected president in the year 2000. Itwas due to the electoral college (a rigged system which originally intended to prevent slaves from voting andevolved to gerrymandering), even though Bush's opponent, Al Gore, won the national popular vote.Hillary Clinton was elected senator that year, and she announced that the first thing she would do was to get ridof the electoral college. A few years later, as a columnist for the New York Press, I sent her a letter asking aboutthe status of that promise. She didn't reply.On November 8, 2016, a crooked businessman, liar extraordinaire, bragging pussy-grabber, make-America-white-again, anti-choice, anti-Semite, fake Christian, climate-change hoaxer, twitter addict, homophobic,apprentice politician, friendly fascist, and Vladimir Putin's "useful idiot," namely Donald Trump, who waselected as an insanely narcissistic dictator based on the electoral college, whereas his opponent, Hillary Clinton,won the national popular vote by "more than three million" individuals.Irony lives.But an incredibly cruel monster inadvertently awakened a sleeping population to counteract the essence of evilwith love, laughs, and law, fueled by the aid of true news. Incidentally, Putin had 88 journalists murdered. NoHOUSE OVERSIGHT 030871wonder Trump told him, "It's an honor to be with you." Now Putin wanted new Obama's sanctions on Russia tobe reprieved.National Security Adviser Michael Flynn had discussed it with the Russian ambassador a month before Trumptook office. Although General Flynn joined his campaign and shared criminal secrets, he denied them to the FBI.It was a felony offense. The Justice Department warned Trump that Flynn had misled Mike Pence, and that Flyntcould be vulnerable to blackmail. Trump asked Flynn to resign, and yet he offered his job back when he got outof prison. Why? Because Flynt was the scapegoat, taking the fall for the president and vice-president. He preferreda trial with immunity since they knew. Pence said Flynt lied and that itself was a lie.If Trump and Pence were both to be kicked out of the White House, the next in line would be the Speaker of theHouse, Paul Ryan. Steve Bannon has described him as "a limp-dick motherfucker who was born in a petri dish atthe Heritage Foundation." It takes one to know one. Indeed, Bannon said he wanted to destroy Ryan.Hallelujah!HOUSE OVERSIGHT 030872
