Limericks Of Protest

13 counts for George Santos, how odd.
Money laundering, theft, wire fraud,
Two counts of lying…
Meanwhile he’s crying
“It’s a Witch Hunt” like Trump is by God!

***

People I know didn't like
CNN giving Trump open mike.
Airtime for his cult
Is perhaps the result
Of the Hollywood writers strike.

While a Debt Ceiling deal has been struck,
Passing Congress may still take some luck.
Each political faction
Wants some kind of action
Before Social Security checks are unstuck.

When the Debt Ceiling tops off the list
Finger pointing is hard to resist.
But it's time someone said it,
We're a nation on credit
Spending money that does not exist.

Guest of Honor, one should be delighted
Attending a party when one is invited.
Little innocent lamb, he
Will go to Miami.
In other words, he’s been indicted.

A new indictment today, can you guess?
Conspiracy to defraud the U.S.!
Another grand jury
To invoke Donald’s fury
WRITTEN IN ALL CAPS NO LESS!

Still no Speaker, start over again.
Nine candidates, possibly ten.
The message they're sending:
Federal spending
Will run out long before then.

There was a gun lover in Maine
Who wanted to cause too much pain.
13 wounded, 18 dead
But let’s talk instead
About Second Amendment again.

The Pentagon again has a long list
Of promotions held up by Congress.
You know an Uber will
Get further than Tuberville.
Anti-Woke is more important than progress.

A man of great power and wealth
Would protect his own freedom and health.
And thus it is evident,
He must become President
If only to pardon himself.

There’s that man who simply can’t lose!
(If you think otherwise, that’s Fake News.)
When his fortunes seem bleaker
He shows up with a sneaker,
Selling four hundred dollar clown shoes!

If one took embryos and then chilled them
Alabama considers them children.
Even though they're not viable
The state could be liable
If act of God or blackout then killed them.

Neither Joe nor Don would finish a term.
Robert said that they're old and infirm.
He seems a bit critical,
Or perhaps parasitical.
Did he learn that from Dad, or the worm?

He will now cast himself as a martyr.
He always claimed he was smarter.
And there, on the bench,
He raised such a stench
His legal team knows he’s a farter.

Liz Cheney and her father Dick
Say which candidate they will pick.
Trump called him a RINO
But both you and I know
January 6th made them sick!

The candidate’s mind in the gutter,
His campaign is all bluster and sputter,
Serving up fries,
He’s in awe of the size
Of the late Arnold Palmer’s putter.

White House quiet, but the rumor mill says
He’s been taken to Reed with malaise.
No one’s saying the reason,
But given the season
He might rise again in three days.
