Since stumbling by happy accident upon Eric Garland’s transposition of Sally Yates’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee, I knew whose live commentary I wanted to read at James Comey’s much anticipated appearance before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
As before, Eric Garland, futurist and Executive Director of Competitive Futures, was an entertainment delight. Peppered with expletives, verbalized thought bubbles and nifty translations from formal English to hip vernacular, the Comey event was lifted out of its formal setting and into the provocative humor of lampoonery.
For your enjoyment, I’ve collated his tweets into a single story thread with cameo appearances by other tweeters for additional information, videos and photos.
Enjoy!
Comey Cam!

Foreign power = Russia = Putin as far as the bingo card is concerned
Hookers = pee tape = dossier for bingo purposes!
Almost filled in the bingo card too… if only it had had “traitor”, “Sessions” or ”evil elf” and “asshole” on it, it would’ve been a winner for sure!
