This week’s January 6 Committee meeting revealed the utter insanity gripping the Oval Office on December 18, 2020, as disgraced twice-impeached President Trump called his looney squad of toadies to battle his legal team in a Battle Royale. On Team Crazy was lawyer Sidney Powell and her client, former national security advisor Michael Flynn, and former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne. Team Normal was White House lawyers Pat Cipollone and Eric Herschmann, with the chief of staff Mark Meadows looking on. Leading the proceedings was Big Daddy Donald Trump. Here is a partial transcript of the festivities leaked to The Lint Screen.

Attorneys Cipollone and Herschmann walk into the Oval Office and see DJT behind the desk facing Powell, Flynn, and Byrne. Meadows stands with his back to the wall, looking afraid, mopping sweat on his forehead and wringing the handkerchief into a nearby bucket.

DJT: Come in, guys, have a seat. We were just talking about how Biden cheated me in the election.

PC: (LOOKING AT BYRNE) Who the hell are you?

PB: I’m Patrick Byrne from Overstock dot com. I can get you good deals on tube socks or tins of paprika a few years past their expiration dates.

PC: Good to know. (LOOKING AT MEADOWS) Hey, Mark, didn’t you pay Orkin this month? We’ve got pests and vermin in here. Hell, I even saw Rudy down the hall.

DJT: Don’t insult true patriots, Cipollone. These people care more about me than you guys do. We’re making plans for keeping me in office. They’re protecting me. Making me feel good.

PC: (ROLLING HIS EYES) Not again. Are they telling you that Biden cheated?

DJT: He did. Everyone says so. I won in a landslide––everyone knows that.

SP: The President is right. I don’t know why you lawyers with your fancy law degrees have to be so––

EH: Did you even go to a law school, Sidney?

SP: Yes, Mr. Smarty Pants––ACME Academy of Law. It’s a correspondence school in Guam and––

PC: Wow. What matchbook cover did you find that place on?

PB: Hey, I can get you a good deal on matchbooks­. 6,000 packs for only––

EH: Shut up, Overstock guy.

PB: We also have incredible deals on My Pillows!

PC: Can we get this idiot out of here?

DJT: Enough of your bullying, you two. Sidney and Michael have been giving me some fantastic ideas. Go on, General, tell them your plan.

MF: We declare Marshall Law and order the army to confiscate all the voting machines. We destroy all the ballots and the machines. Then we declare President Trump our King Supreme for All Time.

DJT: (EXCITED) Tell them what happens to anyone who disagrees.

MF: We execute them. Firing squads.

DJT: (SMILING) Isn’t that terrific?! I love that. 

PC: Are you guys crazy? You can’t do that. It’s illegal.

SP: Maybe it’s illegal now, but we’ll change the law and––

EH: Sidney, you and Rudy keep saying Biden cheated. Where’s your proof?

DJT: Go ahead, Sidney, tell them. 

SP: We have lots of proof. 

DJT: See? Evidence like you wouldn’t believe.

MF: Martians used a special ray that programmed people to vote for Biden.

SP: We have over ten million ballots illegally cast by lizards and turtles dressed like humans.

MF: And they switched every Trump vote to a Biden vote. It was done by software implanted in boxes of Italian pasta.

DJT: Incredible. They even rigged the macaroni.

EH: (SHAKING HIS HEAD IN DISBELIEF) Do you have any solid evidence? Something admissible in a court of law.

DJT: Everyone knows it’s all true, Eric. Besides, we don’t need evidence. I’m appointing Sidney as special counsel to investigate all election fraud.

SP: And there’s a lot of it. I see it everywhere.

PC: Mr. President, don’t do that. You’re inviting trouble if you have Sidney looking into these crazy conspiracies.

DJT: Trouble? What trouble? Didn’t you hear–– I’m going to be Supreme King for All Time.

PC: Mark, could you help us out here. This is getting out of control.

MM: I don’t know, Pat. I think these are some excellent ideas. And I’m going to get a pardon––the President said so!

PC: This is absolute insanity––

EH: I’ve had enough of this shit. Who wants to fight me? You, Sid? Flynn? How ’bout you Mr. Overstock–let’s go a couple of rounds. 

DJT: Stop it, Eric. You’re way out of bounds here. You legal beagle guys lost. We won. (HE TURNS TO MEADOWS) Mark, call someone to start making my gold crown. With lots and lots of jewels.

SP: And diamonds!

DJT: Good idea, Sidney. And diamonds. Lots of shiny diamonds. Oh, and, Mark, call Hannity and Tucker, too––I want my crowning ceremony broadcast live on Fox News. Have Mike Lindell and My Pillow buy all the ad time. Oh, and I want to dance with Ivanka. A slow dance. Very slow. Umm. (TRUMP’S EYES CLOSE AS HE SMILES.)

PC: (TURNING TO HERSCHMANN) We’re screwed.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.) is outraged that he has been issued a subpoena by an Atlanta-area special grand jury investigating twice-impeached disgraced former President Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia.
“This whole thing is just another fishing expedition witch hunt,” Graham says with righteous indignation. “I made a couple of phone calls to Brad Raffensperger asking him to recount absentee ballots in favor of President Trump. What’s the big deal?”
Dressed in a crisp white and pink pinstriped seersuckers suit, Graham is especially concerned because Fani Willis is the leading prosecutor on the case.
“She appears to me to be just another angry black woman,” Graham tells The Lint Screen. “I don’t have a racist bone in my body, but let’s face it––for all I know, I have ancestors who once owned her people. Now she’s seeking revenge. There is no way I can find justice in a situation like that. And because I’m on The Committee on the Judiciary, I know a thing or two about justice.”
The effusive, animated South Carolinian believes that no crimes were committed in Georgia.
“I asked Raffensperger to find us some absentee votes,” he says with a dismissive wave of his tiny lily white hand. “And later, the President asked him to find 11,780 votes. That is not all that many votes––especially when everyone was saying Biden cheated. And President Trump himself said that he won in a massive landslide.” The pale man shakes his head in disgust. “Is it any wonder so many patriots stormed The Capitol on January 6?”
Graham rises from his chair and makes one last closing argument.
“I’m a goddamn Senator,” he smiles. “And you can’t touch this.”
And with that proclamation, Lindsey moonwalks out the door.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas told The Lint Screen he must control over half the population of the United States.

“I’m not a sexist,” Thomas says, “but you just can’t trust women. Look at history. Who caused Adam to get kicked out of the Garden of Eden? Eve. I close my case. The evidence couldn’t be clearer––women need a man to tell them what to do.“

That is the reasoning he and other conservative hit job judges on the Supreme Court recently struck down Roe v Wade as the law of the land.

“If a woman is carrying a man’s seed, I believe she must deliver,” Thomas proclaims. “It doesn’t matter what she thinks about it. Her body is not hers once she possesses a man’s property. It doesn’t matter if the man was a close relative or a stranger who let his animal instincts get the better of him––she’s got an obligation to deliver his child. Incest and rape are flimsy excuses for abortion. God wants every life to be born.”

Thomas believes women were put on earth for a purpose.

“God made a woman out of one of Adam’s ribs,” he says. “Naturally, she is his property. As such, women have duties to perform, and birthing babies is one of them, along with vacuuming the floors, doing laundry, making meals, darning socks, and mixing a good gin martini for her man when he comes home from work. I think society went to pot after women started learning to read and attending school. It took away from their sacred domestic duties and put fanciful notions in their pretty heads.”

Thomas said the Court’s abortion decision is just the start.

“We’re going to look at all the problems of society,” he promises. “The gays, the media, free speech that we don’t agree with, organized labor, anything that goes against corporate interests, not having religion in every aspect of American life, restricting voting rights “for the wrong kinds of people,” and much more.

Thomas rubs his hands together and giggles gleefully.

“Supreme Court Justices have appointments for life,” he says. “And we plan to give every American better lives by dictating what freedoms they’re allowed to have.“

Thanks, Clarence, you’re a mensch.

Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson is an important man.

Reporters swarmed Johnson following yesterday’s January 6 committee hearing, where he was implicated as offering to be a delivery boy for a slate of fake ballots. He had pledged to personally bring Vice President Mike Pence the counterfeit ballots while the Veep was counting votes in the Electoral College.

The half-assed ploy was an ill-fated coup attempt to overturn a free and fair election and dish another term to disgraced twice-impeached ex-President Donald J. Trump.

Johnson, a known scumbag and man of no integrity and meager intellect, received a phone call when reporters began pestering him with vexing questions. The Lint Screen offers this transcript of Johnson’s side of the conversation follows.

RJ:  Hello… what’s that? This is a call from a world leader? Yes, I’ll listen to your offer.

Uh-huh. Uh-huh. 

Yes. Please send us lots of gasoline at the low affordable price of fifty cents a gallon! That would be wonderful. I’m sure Americans would appreciate that. 

Uh-huh. Right! That’s fantastic news.

You also have lots of baby formula––and you’ll sell it to us cheap? I love that––we’ll take it! Send us everything you have. Our babies are starving for formula!

Uh-huh. Hmm. Uh-huh. Nice!

You can fix all our supply chain issues and stop inflation? Yes, please do that for the United States of America. You see, caller, I am a true patriot who lives to protect and preserve our great democracy…

What’s that? Umm-hmm, I see. Yes, I couldn’t agree with you more.

The January 6 committee is a partisan hack job. A witch hunt against America’s greatest president, Donald J. Trump, and the GOP freedom lovers and defenders of the Second Amendment who want to make America great again.

Uh-huh. Right.

January 6 was no big deal. Just some friendly tourists who got a little rowdy––

A rude reporter interrupted Sen. Johnson and was told the fake ballots narrative was a “non-story.”

We can take his word on that. He is a patriot, after all.

The Lint Screen has obtained a new email from “THE PRESIDENT’S DESK IN MAR-A- LAGO” soliciting money for his defense against the January 6th Committee Hearings. 

Below is his latest email in its entirety under a picture of disgraced twice-impeached ex-President Donald J. Trump.

My Dear Friend,

I can’t believe this is the United States of America.

Treasonous RHINOs, and the socialist liberals are viciously attacking me––America’s greatest patriot!!!!!

And I sit here wondering––WHERE ARE YOU WHEN I NEED YOUR HELP THE MOST??? 

The very unfair January 6th Congressional Committee is making up many, many lies, trying to hurt my popularity. They know I won the 2020 election IN A MASSIVE LANDSLIDE!!!!!

But they can’t accept that, so they started ANOTHER witch hunt!!! These angry career politicians hate me because I MADE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and they don’t want to KEEP AMERICA GREAT. 

So, they are saying some not-so-nice things about me. Very bad things. They are actually questioning my honesty––which is crazy since my social media network is called TRUTH SOCIAL––but I guess they don’t want to admit that!!! How could I possibly lie with a name like TRUTH SOCIAL?

But they don’t care. THE RADICAL LEFT keeps attacking, attacking, and attacking me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Many people are saying that they are even bribing other people to make up stories about me. People like not-as-hot-as-she-thinks-she-is Ivanka Trump, very weak Jared Kushner, horrible, bad-breath Bill Barr, and other traitors are all getting paid big $$$ to LIE. ABOUT ME!!!

Don’t believe anything you hear from these fake hearings… THESE PEOPLE WANT TO KILL YOUR PARENTS AND GROOM YOUR CHILDREN! THEN THEY WILL POISON YOUR PETS AND BURN YOUR BIBLES!!! 

Do the patriotic thing and HELP ME FIGHT THE SOCIALISTS HELLBENT ON RUINING OUR COUNTRY!!!

Can I count on you to chip in $20? Twenty lousy bucks! 

But don’t be a cheapskate!!!

$50 would be much better––and $100 would show you care about saving democracy.

But if you really love America, you will sign over the deed to your house and car title to the PROTECT DONALD J. TRUMP PAC.

Don’t allow our country to go down the toilet! Save the USA and DONATE NOW TO HELPING ME!!!

Thank you for being a patriot,

President Donald J. Trump (cheated out of the Oval Office)

In a startling development, The Lint Screen was able to corner the tall guy always standing behind Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell when he addresses the press.

The skinny guy is South Dakota Sen. John Thune, representing a handful of people in the desolate land of Mt. Rushmore, wielding the same power as every other Senator. And amazingly, we discovered he could talk! He’s not just a suit mannequin on loan from Macy’s.

We asked Sen. Thune why any citizen can buy AR-15s.

“The AR-15 is necessary for a citizen’s protection,” Thune claims. “My constituents use it for hunting prairie dogs, critters, and pests of all kinds. The flying insects in South Dakota are thick as thieves and bothersome as all get out.”

Thune flails his arms in the air as if he is swatting insects. It is quite a convincing performance. The man is “in character.” The Senator freezes his action and bows. He continues his comments. 

“And let me tell you, if you think you’re going to protect yourself with a can of Raid or a plastic fly swatter, well, you’ve got another thing coming. An AR-15 is a godsend when it comes to hunting skeeters and flies. You can lay down a spray of bullets that let them know you mean business.”

Thune scoffs at those who want any legislation restricting AR-15s.

“I don’t understand all the rigamarole about mass shootings,” he says. “You’re more likely to die in a car wreck than a mass shooting. So, should we outlaw cars? The Republican Party believes the whole debate is ludicrous. If you’re worried, arm the teachers, for Pete’s sake!”

The sanctimonious politician believes our forefathers would be appalled at the behavior of some Americans today.

“The men who wrote the second amendment knew what they were doing,” Thune proclaims. “And they wanted us to have AR-15s and whatever other arms we can get our hands on. You don’t know when the red coats will be coming again, and I say better safe than sorry.”

Thune said the solution to “the so-called gun issue in America” is simple. “It’s like the NRA’s Wayne LaPierre says––we just need more good guys with guns. That’s the only thing that makes sense. Let’s lift this stupid age restriction of being 18 to get an AR-15. There are lots of good young guys. Let’s get them some AR-15s!”

He then skedaddles into his office and closes the door.

Problem solved.
