You’ll sit down and you’ll take it, as Bogey would say

For some reason, this whole saga reminds me of Sydney Greenstreet and Joel Cairo (Peter Lorre) in the Bogart film "The Maltese Falcon".

I guess the bird is the presidency, but I can't help but think of Peter Lorre complaining about being made to tell such a stupid story that made him look like a perfect idiot.

Its very Maltese Falcon

I guess we were tapping into the tone and even the theme

It was just that slapping around that I pictured didnt even know which flick nor the victim

But you’re right, that’s the scene
