The A1 Verse: Ron Johnson’s ministry of truth
By Thomas Gaulkin | March 22, 2021
Every so often, a story published on the front page of the New York Times is so well written, meaningful, and appropriate to the Bulletin’s concerns that small snippets of it, properly chosen and arranged, produce something more than journalism, something that approaches … poetry. That blessed coincidence occurred March 22, 2021.
We suspect it’ll occur again.
(from the original by Trip Gabriel and Reid J. Epstein)
Senator Outrage,
the foremost amplifier,
an all-access purveyor

and the etymology of
doubt.
Together, we make the world safer.
