Technically Speaking

The reason God made weather forecasters

Was to make it seem like there are masters

In economics, who it seems to me

Are so frequently wrong, abnormally!

So technically speaking we’re in a rut

And you better hope you’ve covered your nut.

Chips Ahoy

At first it seems like it makes lots of sense

And anything that helps make things less tense

With bipartisan support is real nice

And should help both our parties break the ice

But it turns out the bill is pretty flawed

Even if it brings home chips from abroad.

Swaptions

Perhaps it’s really bad of me to say

But I wonder if this is the right way

To deal with a person who has the stage

But could easily draw some real outrage

For being so stupid, taking drugs in

To Russia… releasing a true man of sin.

Sacre Jaune!

When it comes to mustard the French aren’t chill.

But then again they can seem kind of shrill

About all manner of things in the world

As if their happiness gets a bit swirled

In drama and malaise they’ll speak about,

And always with a classic French pout.

About that lock up

These folks just straight up were planning a coup

It was all illegal, and that they knew.

We play around with the term “lock ‘em up”

But back in the day if there were men up

Who tried to overthrow our great nation?

They would be found at the hangman’s station…

Electoral Reform Act

What would have happened had Pence given in?

What sort of hell would we be livin’ in?

Our nation’s stability sat with him.

Had he played ball with Trump, things would be grim.

We came awfully close, one man stopped the fall…

This legislation would help fix it all.

Who’s on First?

Both parties seem to have lost their minds

While the public chooses to put on blinds.

What conservative could truly feel good

About J6 and where DJT stood?

Yet still so many want him to come back!

As if they’re ok with his nuts attack.

Inflation takes its toll

We knew it would come sooner or later

And no help foreseen from our Creator…

The cost of all goods is getting so high

We must be creative just to get by.

Discount brands have made our path very clear

Tough times demand that we have smokes and beer!

See Josh Run!

Josh is among my least favorite of folks,

And now has become one of DC’s big jokes.

Oh he was so strong and such a leader!

His fist raised to support the rebel breeder.

But say, what’s this? When the mob reached the door?

He was the first to run from the Senate floor!

“Everyone else was”

So this guy’s wife had a sordid affair

And once discovered, vanished in thin air.

He was charged with murder, but it was dropped.

Then a much bigger charge couldn’t be stopped…

He filled out and mailed her absentee ballot!

Just one more swing of Trump’s MAGA mallet.
