Twas the night before
Christmas and all through the ‘House’
Republicans were scrambling as
quiet as a mouse.
Plotting Made for Fox Soundbite
Hearings with no rhyme or reason
In hopes that Trolling instead
of Governing will be a hit for their ‘season’!
MAGA-Beholding McCarthy tossed and turned in his bed
While visions of Marjorie/Boebert
Feuding scrambled his head!
McConnell’s 'Grinchy' brain
cells planning more ‘Obstruction’ Plots
To keep Biden/Dems Voting
Rights Agenda tied up in knots!
When out on the White House lawn
there arose such a clatter
They guarded their Republican-Fed
Tax Cuts for the Rich to see what was the matter.
Away to their ‘Pay for
Play’ campaign coffers they flew like a flash
Making sure Fair-Share
Taxation won’t limit their stash!
The moon on the breast of the new
fallen snow
Gave a luster of limbo to Republican-Blocked Immigration Border Reform below
When what to their wondering eyes
did appear
But Biden’s Build Back
Better Agenda - the first in 4 years!
Delivered a First Black Female
Justice, Paid Family Leave, Child Tax Credit, vaccines across the nation
Halved child poverty, ended Forever
Wars with massive Infrastructure Legislation
Delivered historical policy
shifts with Climate Change, NATO Alliances, Marriage Equality and more
No blinking, no shrinking -
Intent on balancing the score!
Fed up with Republican-Packed Justices,
Senators, Legislatures, Governors Voter Oppression Tricks!
Biden’s House Democrats added John Lewis Voting Rights AND For
the People Acts to their Fair Election list
Manchin/Sinema helped Senate Republicans block both
Acts without shame
But House Democrats kept delivering for The People just
the same
They passed Covid Rescue, Inflation Reduction, Consumer Protections too
Lower Health Care &
Prescription Costs, Emergency Food & Rent Assistance …
Just to name a few!
As leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle,
mount to the sky.
Messy Jesse, Tucker the Mucker and the rest of
the FOX QAnon Crew flew
With a fact-free bag
of disinformation, race-baiting and lies -
What else is new?
And then in a twinkling, WE heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of
each FOXified Hunter Biden Spoof!
As WE drew in our heads and
turned around
McConnell’s Defeat
Democracy to Defeat Biden Senate Republicans pounced with a bound.
Dressed all in ‘Nuke’
Gingrich-manufactured fur from head to foot,
Flashing Anti-Biden, Anti-Voting,
Anti-Middle/Working Class Filibusters tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of “NO!” Votes
tucked under their hats.
They all looked like peddlers
just opening their packs.
Their deceptions – how they twinkled!
Backed by House Republican
Overturn Election Votes so leery!
Lowering For the
People governing standards just to make MAGA Trumpers cheery!
Their droll little mouths were
drawn down row by row,
And their "NO!" Votes
rang-out as empty as snow.
The stump of their
Filibusters stuck in their teeth
Defeat America to Defeat
Biden encircled
their heads like a wreath.
They had broad, fake smiles
and bloated Tax Cuts for the Rich bellies
That shook when
they deceived, like a bowl full of jelly.
And I laughed when I saw them, in
spite of myself;
A wink of their eyes and a TWIST of
their heads!
The Exorcist sequel! Hide! Under the sled!
Dems rolled up their sleeves, and
continued to work
Turning a “Wave” to a ‘Trickle’
in the Midterms can’t be smirched.
And laying their finger aside
their nose
And giving a nod, to the Capital
they rose!
Biden sprang to his sleigh – to
his Team gave a whistle.
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he
drove out of sight –
Happy Christmas to all!
