SCOTUS Offers Hope

An unexpected and welcome surprise…

As many foresee our nation’s demise

Pulled at the seams by competing factions

Executing their most extreme actions

It’s encouraging that some common ground

Is actually still out there and can still be found.

Debt Spiral

So we’re long due to discuss real issues,

And you might need to grab a box of tissues.

Since no one is willing to take a stand

Our debt per person is $100 grand.

This figure goes well beyond insane.

Still no one does anything but complain.

Never Look a Gift Horse… Naw!

After a trial and conviction by peers

They were doing time for 22 years.

Then they were pardoned by Donald Trump

And since he believes that you’re a chump

If you don’t press for what’s best for you

Now these traitors have decided to sue.

Fun While It Lasted

Each had some bombs they were willing to drop.

As scorched-earth campaigns were going nonstop.

Elon said Trump is in the Epstein files,

Trump withdrew contracts which cost Musk piles.

These high casualty rates may have forced a truce,

But tacos will always make you deuce.

That Was Inevitable

The Unholy Alliance comes undone!

And yes watching it is a little fun.

It was as predictable as the tide

That massive egos fueled by wealth and pride

Would sooner or later just pull apart.

It was all pretty clear right from the start.

I Hope So

The evidence is so hard to refute

These drugs help people, all else is moot.

Sure some use them as a crazy escape

But they also have the power to shape

Brand new lives for people who need them.

For some combat veterans, it has freed them.

Rings Hollow

I’m not gonna say he found religion

But Elon has evolved a smidgen.

Of course it’s always easy to throw stones

Or trash people on social megaphones

But it’s hard to say that his outburst lands

When he himself had control in his hands.

What Could Have Been

The American budget needs reform

And it will take fighting against the norm.

It’s a shame they squandered this chance they had

With showbiz hi-jinx that were really bad

And little of substance done with true thought

Just reckless destruction with power bought.

OMG! Wish I Were You

As social media extends its reach

You’re not even safe going to the beach.

No longer can you just go and hang out

Now you must tell the world what it’s about.

And what it’s about is not so funny…

You have to announce that you are money.

Elections Have Consequences

The number of farmers who voted for Trump

Gave him a huge electoral bump.

Over seventy percent voted for him

But now they find they must implore him

To give them a bailout, an exception

The tariffs will make them need protection.
