Answer:

The underlined verb or verb phrase is in the progressive aspect

Step-by-step explanation:

This sentence is written following the syntax of present progressive or present continuous, this is used to talk about either temporary events or the actions that are happening in the precise moment. The structure of this grammatical form consists of subject + be + verb (ing), the sentence follows this stricture as this " We aren't fooling".
