Dang that Zugzwang!
The Grand Old Party behaves just like a mafia gang,
Relying on “flooding the zone” with sturm und drang.
We’re headed for a showdown
Over the looming government shutdown,
But the Democrats find themselves locked in zugzwang.

Paging Doctor Trump
On what is Doctor Trump’s medical advice predicated?
His guidance on Tylenol seems definitely addlepated.
He allegedly told us to inject bleach
When COVID vaccines were within reach,
Perhaps the president is just a little over-chlorinated?
CEOs Agree: Trump Is Bad for Their Business
“In private, the leaders of some of the country’s best-known companies say that a number of White House policies have been bad for their businesses — and possibly illegal, per the results of a survey from Yale School of Management,” Axios reports.
Some results:
- 71% of the CEOs said tariffs were harmful to their businesses.
- 74% said that the courts were correct to find that the Trump’s tariffs are illegal as executed.
- 80% said that the president was not acting in the country’s best interest by pressuring Fed chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates.
- 76% said that Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. is putting U.S. public health at risk.
Bagman Homan
Trump’s DOJ says the Homan bribe charge just wasn’t real.
Homan didn’t sell a contract, so no bribe — just a steal.
Kash and Pam shared a Holmes-like hunch
The G-Men were just delivering Homan’s lunch.
And anyway, the bag (like the Epstein papers) is now under lock and seal.
Royal Revenge Binge
When Trump promised retribution, he wasn’t playing games,
On Saturday he gave Pam Bondi a target list of names.
When a madman gets elected,
No one is protected,
But especially if your name is Comey, Schiff or James.
All You Can Be
The Pentagon wants to use Charlie Kirk as a posthumous recruiter,
With the slogan: “Charlie has awakened a new generation of warriors.”
New recruits could sign on the line
Then join Donald Trump’s War on Crime,
And serve their country as a highly trained, uniformed janitor.
A Chilling Effect
The attacks on free expression are getting pretty scary,
Before you speak your mind these days you must be wary.
Standing up for the truth is a heavy load,
And defending your beliefs is a rocky road,
That has led us to this: Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream without Jerry.
Look Out, Antifa’s Back!
Trumpland’s rabid rantings after Kirk’s killing have heat but no heft,
And of a firm moral, legal or constitutional basis, they are bereft.
But beware if you wear tie-dye,
Listen to the Dead or get high,
Trump and his evil minions are gunning for the mythical Radical Left.
Supreme Culpability
It was John Roberts’ SCOTUS that gave Donald Trump executive immunity,
So he can break the economy and kidnap, starve and murder folks with impunity.
But for every human being he kills
For vengeance, greed or thrills,
Roberts and his conservative co-conspirators are guilty of complicity.
From Boaters to Floaters
For Donald Trump, international laws are just something to skirt,
And he really doesn’t care if innocent people get killed or hurt.
So you fellas from the Venezuela side
Who are considering taking a boat ride,
Think twice about wearing your official Tren de Aragua T-shirt.
