Gov Is the Prob
It’s pretty easy to say that the government is the problem, as Ronald Reagan did.
The people who represent his party often run for office claiming the government doesn’t work, and then when they get in, they do whatever it takes to prove they were right. The party of Richard Nixon.
OK, then, anyone who doesn’t like the government should be required for just one day to keep their kids home from public school, stay out of public parks or any public recreation area, stay out of a post office and stay off of any public highway or other civic thoroughfare.
Get docked of Social Security benefits, stay out of court, stay off the phone with police and fire officials, avoid free vaccinations at public health facilities, don’t take classes at COM, stay home from the county fair and off of all Civic Center property, and otherwise free oneself of any public benefits. No library visits, either, and you can’t register to vote.
No bridges, no beaches, no fishing and no hunting on public access land, like Yosemite. No Medicaid, no school lunch programs, no food stamps, no empathy allowed.
This is the new Mike Johnson fundamentalist Proud Boys Viking hat feet on Nancy Pelosi’s desk, run, Josh Hawley run, bribe a justice, oligarch regime. Knock yourselves out, kids. When you get mad enough, go burn down 30 Rock. They started it.

Devil in the Details
I take exception to Tom Tomorrow’s misrepresentation of Donald Trump as the Devil (This Modern World, July 9). First of all, the Devil is personally attractive and charming. Trump is not. The Devil is intelligent. Trump is not. The Devil is sophisticated. Trump, for all his worldly experience, remains a yahoo. Finally, the Devil, despite his disreputable status, was and still remains an angel, albeit a fallen one. Believe me, there is nothing angelic about Trump.
