Everyone in DC knows that if you want to hide something, announce it on a Friday in August. Better yet, make it nearly impossible to track down.

If CBS & ABC have bent the knee
And the Washington Post, NYTimes, & the LATimes have bent the knee
And the Congress & SCOTUS have bent the knee
All to a demented child rapist
Then it is all the more imperative that we the people never bend
We are who we have
