Open the official explanation (it is not an apology)

SUBJECT: THE DEPRECATION OF THE REPUBLIC

The United States is a distressed corporate asset, according to a prospectus nobody can locate. We fired the scientists and gave the press office a bigger budget.

The Department is fictional; the confidence is unfortunately familiar. This page is an editorial joke, not a government bulletin or a sourced account of current events.
