Jonathan Bartlet's Fax on Presidential Library Site
Charlie thrusts this incoming fax from Jonathan Bartlet into the fray of hallway urgency, its stark printed lines exposing how the prime presidential library site clashes with the Historic Barns and Bridges Preservation Act. Bartlet snatches the revelation, curses the 'idiot bill' in reflexive fury before ownership crashes down—his own gubernatorial signature seals the irony. Pages crinkle under gripped fingers as conflict surges, stalling ambitions in a heartbeat.
