As many of you know, my brain is often spinning. There’s always something coming out of it, often something that gets me in trouble. The other day, I came up with what I thought would be a great headline for The Babylon Bee. If you don’t know what Babylon Bee is, it’s basically the Christian Conservative version of The Onion, a satirical newspaper.
The guys at Babylon Bee have been producing content that is both biting and funny for years, but the last couple of months they have just been on fire. It’s the type of thing that makes you want to play in their sandbox. So, when a thought hit my head, I thought I needed to figure out how to submit a headline idea to them.

swamp-draining. our government is being held captive by special interests. this is not a left versus right issue. all americans, 80% americans name it as one of the top two issues of both parties, anderson. they don t want a government that works for the special interests. the special interests of the right or the left. they want a government that works for the public interest. this government is not doing it with these former lobbyists running cabinet agency after cabinet agency. the american people elected donald trump because the leftist special interests in the obama administration were dominating. you have well-funded, well-organized groups going on the attack against this administration, against very qualified people who know their industries and know them well, and are working on issues on behalf of the american public and doing it very well. you know what that does? it makes the left very, very
