If this doesn't signal the coming of the Apocalypse, I don't know what does: JOE EXOTIC says he's willing to work with that WITCH CAROLE BASKIN. (???) Carole's husband HOWARD . . . the one who did NOT disappear under mysterious circumstances . . . recently said they would help Joe get out of prison if he would support the Big Cat Public Safety Act that they're trying to get passed into law. And Joe is on board. He says, quote, "It is time for Carole and Howard to put up or shut the hell up because I'm accepting their offer." Joe isn't hiding the fact that he's just in it for a pardon. He says, quote, "The way [the law is] written is not gonna help anybody except PETA and Carole Baskin." But he'll join the cause if it gets him out. Reached for comment, Carole said, quote, "I think he'd say anything, but not actually do it." She added that Joe would have to, quote, "work with authorities to bring all of his buddies to justice and work with legislators to end cub handling," before she'd support his release.
