Paul Auster, author. (The New York Trilogy)

You’re going down in flames, you tax-fattened hyena! (#116 in a series)

Federal agents have launched a criminal probe into the embattled mayor of a Chicago suburb, Tiffany Henyard, issuing a subpoena to the self-proclaimed “super mayor” last week for a trove of business records and financial reports.

I have no joke here, I just like saying “Wonderful thing, a subpoena.”

Mike the Musicologist also tells me that Ms. Henyard’s current lawyers have asked to withdraw from the case…because Ms. Henyard isn’t paying her legal bills.
