Representative Mo Brooks– a poem

Alabama congressman: “People who lead good lives” don’t have preexisting conditions

Alabama Congressman Mo Brooks

Judges not by deeds, the sick are crooks

”People who lead good lives” no one bad

Suffer pre-existing (what they’ve had)

~

From injuries to cancer, his view,

End affordable healthcare for you

Judgemental, entitled, in power

More morality by the hour

Congressman announces cancer diagnosis months after characterizing illness as a personal failing – ThinkProgress

😳

Karma served: cancer diagnosis

Did his deeds dictate this prognosis?

Injustice lingering in the air

Taxpayers pay his lifetime healthcare

Trump Payed Off— a poem

Dow Chemicals donated

One million bucks

To Trump- normally

I would give zero ducks

The company, in return,

Has a request:

Ignore the results

Of a pesticide test

This story, like most,

Has another detail

Trump’s friend,

Murdoch, owns Dow—

Our health was a sale.

Dow Chemical Donates $1 Million to Trump, Asks Administration to Ignore Pesticide Study

A Pirate Limerick Fer Yer Mums Day

*Repostin from Mum’s Days of yore— fer tis a mumosa hoistin day fer sum, argh.

Deep in me core aye heart me spawn three,

Me three spawn, they say, also heart me.

Once joined at the hip,

Till through they did slip,

Since then aye’ve naer longed to be free.

McGahn… a limerick

Lindsey Graham doesn’t have a care

About what Trump said to whom or where

Trump ordered McGahn

Fire Mueller, the plan:

Take the blame… does that seem fair?

Because McGahn never complied

“It doesn’t matter what Trump tried”

It is still obstruction

Graham’s deduction

Fabricated, I’ll say it, he lied

Graham: ‘I don’t care’ what happened between Trump and McGahn

Rosenstein… a limerick

Nadler says Justice Department seems ‘very afraid’ of staff attorneys questioning Barr

Were Rosenstein to testify

Trump would warn him not to comply

Department of Justice

Is “afraid” of congress

White House power has been misapplied

*BREAKING*

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein Submits Resignation Letter

Are these two stories connected?

Timing somewhat unexpected

Now freed to confess

Not under duress

Answer without being directed
