I have dreams of Karoline Leavitt’s cross glowing red hot every time she tells a lie.

This made me laugh so hard. Pete-cock may be my new favorite name.

And congrats on the book arriving!

The characterizations are all great. Best is the Dung Beatle.

Not sure Dung beetle is best- I was laughing so hard at each one that followed. This requires more thought. Holly at her most shining!

Who knows which is best. But Leavitt deserves her ball of shit.

Cindy's avatar

Indeed, she revels in it.

Yes. The opposite of sweets to the sweet. Shit to the shitty,

Loved the MAGA safari. I might have gone with hyena for that scavenger Stephen Miller, but hippo works well.

Love, love, love this column. Though I think you may be doing injustice to dung beetles and hyenas.

If I lived in DC or was visiting, I would let Politics and Prose how disappointed I am in its decision.

Oh, don’t worry, I do believe they will come to regret it :)

I was hoping to see this on C Span but a podcast will do. Tell politics and prose that they suck.

I love the writers and comments on my various subscriptions that make me smile or chortle or laugh. I am finding what comfort I can in mockery.

And this is absolute genius!

I tried to read it aloud to my husband, and couldn’t get the words out. One of the Great Laughs in my life.
