Headline: “No escape: Senators to be quiet, unplugged for Trump trial”
Juror-Senators told to be quiet?
Might as well be commanded to diet.
Keeping mum ain’t their thing.
Self-restraint’s bound to sting.
(So will jail should they opt to defy it.)
“New documents show why the president has been trying to hide evidence from Congress.”
New proof’s in the public domain,
Which may prove to be Donald Trump’s bane.
So though Nancy’s demand
Was not met, those who’ve panned
Her may rue this large evidence gain.
Hill Headline: “McConnell has the votes to block Democrats’ witness demands in Trump impeachment trial”
Donald Trump’s taken actions illicit,
But Republicans scoff and dismiss it
As perfectly fine
While they toe Mitch’s line…
And that makes them corruptly complicit.
