"Good morning, and welcome to Washington Journal on C-SPAN. I'm Jared Hughes. It's an unusually warm Monday morning here in Washington, D.C., and I'm glad you could join us. My guest this hour is investigative journalist Marty Fox, the author of the new book--and I apologize to sensitive viewers, but this is the title--'Fucking and Fury: The Fall of the Robinson White House."
The director cut to a shot of the book cover, an illustration of a handsome African-American man wearing a navy blue suit and shirt with cufflinks emblazoned with the seal of the President of the United States; the man was embracing, and fondling the derriere of, a young blonde woman who was wearing a very skimpy Australian flag bikini, her butt cleavage quite prominent above the bikini.
"Mr. Fox has written for Vanity Fair, Esquire, the New York Times Magazine, Politico and other publications," Jared continued. "His previous book was the 2023 bestseller 'By the Nose,' an account of the decade-long manhunt for the notorious Latin American cocaine kingpin El Supremo. It's a pleasure for you to join us, Marty. How are you doing?"
"Quite well, actually," said Marty, brushing a hint of blueberry muffin from his beard.
"This book generated quite the controversy even before its official release last week--you claim in the book that 'Three-gate,' last summer's leak of the surveillance tape showing the infamous erotic romp involving former President Mark Robinson, First Lady Kylie Connolly-Robinson and Fleet Magazine Editor-in-Chief Emma O'Donovan, was in fact orchestrated by White House officials loyal to then-Vice President Jonathan Cahill?"
"That's correct," Marty replied. "This all had to do with the Helping the Homeland Act, which President Cahill signed into law last November. There were a number of White House operatives, all of whom I name in the book, who stood to benefit from the passage of that act, and they didn't think the former President would sign the bill.
"As you know, President Cahill has fiercely denied your claims, and says he had nothing to do with the leak of the tape--"
"That's because he's full of shit. In fact, as I point out in the book, he himself stood to benefit from the passage of the very bill he signed."
"You call the release of the surveillance tape 'Cahill's Coup.' Was there any sort of link between Emma O'Donovan and President Cahill? Was her visit to the White House on the Fourth of July weekend last year part of some plot to sexually entrap President Robinson?"
"No. According to my research, O'Donovan and Cahill never met each other and don't know each other. My understanding is that O'Donovan doesn't even like Cahill. There was no collusion, so to speak, between the two. This was just opportunism on Cahill's part--any port in a storm. He and his allies in the White House were looking for something, anything, to get rid of Robinson, and the sex tape was just what they needed."
"You go into rather graphic detail about the full surveillance tape. You write--and we'll put it up on the screen here--'The President eagerly masturbated as Kylie and Emma licked and kissed each other's nipples before the First Lady went down on Emma, licking away as the editor moaned in delight. Soon, Kylie and Emma would scissor each other as the President mouthed, 'This is fucking awesome.' Did President Robinson know that his wife was bisexual?"
