11/2018 - ...How could it be that a government employee had 60 horses?” said Franklin Hoet-Linares, a Venezuelan lawyer who lives a short distance from Mr. Andrade’s house in Wellington, Fla., near West Palm Beach. Mr. Andrade’s plea agreement, and an indictment outlining the bribes he received, were unsealed this week in Federal District Court in Florida. They offer a window into how fortunes were amassed by Venezuela’s elite before they decamped to South Florida. With his powerful position in Venezuela, Mr. Andrade collected a stunning array of bribes, the documents assert, including three private jets, a yacht, horses and “numerous high-end watches.” In his guilty plea, Mr. Andrade admitted to receiving more than $1 billion in bribes...

[....] In our 2019 Presidents Day edition of The Boy Who Cried Libel, our president continues to appear confused about the difference between sketch comedy programs and news broadcasts, and apparently believes there is some law enforcement agency with jurisdiction over his own hurt feelings.
Nothing funny about tired Saturday Night Live on Fake News NBC! Question is, how do the Networks get away with these total Republican hit jobs without retribution? Likewise for many other shows? Very unfair and should be looked into. This is the real Collusion!

Ha! Well, who'd have guessed
that shining a Limerick
reveales a Haiku!

You take the Haiku
I'll take a pool cue. Who'll be
in Scotland 'fore me?

A rich guy from Queens
gets his face in magazines.
Let disco ball spin.
But the party went viral
and now I need a firewall.

Let it consume me.
Until the rich guy from Queens
Is proven a poor liar.

dances between seven honks
to dodge the grabbing.
So many lies prevailing

Where's the world I knew?
Did I grow up somewhere else?
Am I in between?
Then again, I ask.
I question, I consider.
I am not alone.
Is this a new world?
No. It simply feels that way.
But how do I know?
I need certainty.
And can I ever be sure?
Yes, because I am.
eta: Thanks, Peracles, for giving me a convenient space to belch.
