Wow, John, good piece, but.... I read all the way to the end and didn't find anything that sounded like satire. Seriously, all that is real news, right? or at worst, it easily could be real news.

Wow. We are so screwed.

Thanks, John, for another fine column of nicely distilled news.

Finding the "satire" can be like a literary version of "Where's Waldo", however.

Vance is in a terrible position here. his options are:

1. to uncover the fraud and prosecute, thereby cutting off *some* of the money to the bad guys. this will ensure the bad guys do everything they can to blow him up and will end his political career

2. go along to get along, make some examples and leave most of it as it is. this will prevent his political career from being ended in this term

setting him up in this position was a stupid choice. it should have been someone that wasnt politically vulnerable
