A lot of the nation’s ills can be attributed to the failure of the national press to do their watchdog job.
These watchdogs equate to fox guarding the hen house.

That’s a very nice sentiment in the painting.
With a nice group there, Pres. Trump and VP Pence, too.
I don’t understand the serpent, though,
