The Truth Bird 4

Book excerpt: It's weeks away from the 2018 midterm elections, Sam, Justin, Jenny, and I were campaigning hard for the Democrats running in senate and house races. The Truth Bird went on a cross-country tour visiting college campuses in every state lecturing on the dangers of propaganda, and the decline of America's long- standing voice for human rights. Under immense pressure from the White House, the justice department issued a federal warrant for the Truth Bird's arrest. After a few narrow misses by federal agents, his luck finally ran out as he was arrested, leaving the set at CNN studios. He was booked and charged at the Federal Bureau of Investigations headquarters for felony feces disbursement and transferred to the Virginia jail where he would await trial. The Truth Bird had a rough start after meeting his cellie Paul Manafort, who was also awaiting trial on a list of federal crimes ranging from money laundering to violating campaign-financing laws. The Truth Bird's arch nemeses, Rudy Giuliani and the president, were excited they had the bird cornered and wasted no time putting a price on his head. The Truth Bird was denied bail and was instructed by his counsel that it was not likely he would be acquitted, so Giorgio, not having any of that, plots the vigilante bird's escape. The aliens implement a brazen jailbreak freeing the legendary bird and welcome him home to a grand reception at the Star Castle, honoring him for timeless service. Due to the stressful campaign season, Giorgio insists we all go on a retreat to one of the newly developed planets named Martika in order to rest before the final push into the midterm elections. After a weeklong rest and spiritual rejuvenation, we head back to earth to campaign for the remaining days of the most important election in United States history.
