For days, we've been keeping our readers abreast on the situation with the Des Moines, Iowa Superintendent who is in the country illegally. One of X's best, 'Iowahawkblog' aka David Burge is himself a Iowa resident (obviously), and had a hilarious take on this very serious situation. This is one of those times if you don't laugh, you'll cry.
That Des Moines school superintendent is the greatest charming grifter to fleece dimwitted gullible Iowans since Professor Harold Hill

He even rolled into town in the same wardrobe, you just gotta respect that kind of dazzle-the-rubes audacity pic.twitter.com/ItwR8K5qcu

The similarity is stunning, actually.
I still hold out hope that his degree from the Gary Conservatory of Music in Gary Indiana checks outhttps://t.co/9f2aGcf7la

Oh, we've got trouble, in River City, with a capital T and that rhymes with P and that's trouble or pool, or something.
As always, after faceplanting like a bozo, claim it's a teaching moment and seize the opportunity to sternly lecture other people on their shortcomings https://t.co/VMTgeViial

It's our fault for caring so much.
You: mean spirited anger over this unfortunate situation

A handshake used to be enough between men, after all.
My god it just keeps getting more and more delightfully farcicalhttps://t.co/BdbkOkoOp7

Taking a brief time out from my hectic volunteer role of appointing charming, fast driving strangers in flashy clothes to $300k public jobs to remind you to donate to these candidates I personally vouch forhttps://t.co/vS0yQmxMSW

Surely, we can trust her. She has proven she is an excellent judge of character, after all.
Wait... WTF... she's actually running for US Senate in Iowa? I admit being out of the loop on Iowa politics anymore, but sweet googly moogly this really is the long awaited Music Man sequel, and I need someone to reanimate zombie Meredith Willson

Hopefully, she will run for President next.
🎵Warning bells, everywhere

But I didn't hear them ringing
No I didn't hear them at all
Till there was you
PhDs, on CVs
That I didn't have time for pinging
No I didn't vet them at all
Till there was you
But you had bow ties
And a wonderful wardrobe
They told me in radical…
Georgetown in Guyana,

Georgetown in Guyana,
Georgetown in Guyana
Let me say it once again
Georgetown in Guyana,
Georgetown in Guyana,
Georgetown in Guyana
That's the town that knew me when
Seventy-six degrees on my resume

With a hundred and ten awards to inspect
They were followed by row and rows of the finest list of kudos
The claims were just to good to check
Just when I thought this story couldn't possibly get even funnier:https://t.co/zXG3q4mEgk

I gotta admit it's a brilliant strategy: lie on your resume, and if somebody calls you on it just eat the evidence

If only he could have eaten that gun he was caught with.
Trouble with a capital T and that rhymes with D and that stands for diversity, equity, and Inclusion

It never ends. After grifter Charles Ponzi fleeced many people with his infamous Ponzi Scheme, they STILL wanted to invest with him. https://t.co/mKMwhpM42R pic.twitter.com/yJycWTEzyr
