Where Credit Ain’t Due
They strove hard in House and Senate to defeat it,
But Republican hypocrisy has long been so pathetic.
They voted — to a man —
Against the American Recovery Plan,
And now they’re trying to shamelessly take credit.

Fire the Bum!
We’re watching the fall of New York’s majordomo.
His descent has gone to precipitous from slo-mo.
He’s got no political friends,
And his sexual predations must end.
It’s well past time for us to say, No mo’ Cuomo!
R’s Not for ‘Relief’
Lindsey Graham is no champion of race relations,
But his latest comments exceed our lowest expectations.
He says we’re paying back
Those poor, farming Blacks,
And that the COVID relief bill counts as slavery reparations.
Audience of One
Behold, Donald Trump — Friend of the Worker!
To whom loyalty’s dear as the almighty dollar.
But on his return to New York,
There to greet the great jerk,
Were the news media and one lone supporter.
Trump-0, WSJ-1
Sore loser Donald Trump is a nuisance infernal,
His assaults on the media are as stupid as they are futile.
And Trump’s public relations flack
Must be having a heart attack,
Because you can’t win a war of words with the Wall Street Journal.
The Seep Pack’s Back
After a month of quiet, Trump was back,
And the hounds of the GOP were on the attack.
No mention of insurrection
Or pandemic devastation,
Just Nazi runes and GOP cheerleading at good ol’ CPAC.
The Decision’s Elizabethan
They wait alike, Democrat, Republican and Libertarian,
In an atmosphere of high drama — almost Shakespearean.
Will she allow hiked wages?
It’s a question for the ages,
As we all bide the call of the Senate Parliamentarian.
He’s Right, In a ‘Sense’
He’s known as Senator Ron Johnson
And he hails from Wisconsin.
He says it was “provacateurs”
And “fake Trump supporters,”
But we think Wisconsin’s Johnson speaks nonsense.
An Affiliation Revelation
They backed a guy who writes with a Sharpie,
So their affiliation switch seems like malarkey.
But after the insurrection
They had a revelation,
And now Republicans are fleeing the Grand Old Party.
Destination: Revenge
Trump is taking on the mantle of itinerant provocateur,
Setting forth to sully the unfaithful with Trumpian manure.
He’s hitting the road
To chastise and goad
His enemies, on what is being heralded as his revenge tour.
