"They say laughter's the best medicine. I guess that's why my doctor told me to quit journalism and start a clown college. But then I realized, most of the clowns are already in politics. And their jokes? Not nearly as funny as the ones I dig up on the daily."

Yours Truly, Jack Hammer.

THE DOCKET

An intense, high-contrast, black-and-white image reminiscent of a 1940s film noir poster. A massive, metallic gauntlet—an "iron fist"—is shown gripping the dome of the U.S. Capitol Building. The texture of the gauntlet is sharp and gritty, with visible scrapes and dents. In the foreground, out of focus and blurred by a newsprint grain, are the silhouettes of a few police officers with their backs to the viewer, looking up at the imposing fist. The overall tone is grim and foreboding.
