New Poem: CALIFORNIA GERRYMANDER REFERENDUM RAMBLE

 can’t get around the California referendum system where the issues aren’t decided by actual study of the issues instead we’re going to have right wing consultants crank out commercials that will scare no information voters into believing their voting rights will be taken away and of course Gavin Newsom will fundraise off this and perhaps rasp his way through a few public announcements about the Importance of 2026 maybe selling the notion that this will check some of Donald and J.D.’s worst behavior 

then if it passes and it likely will, Gavin and the Democrats who love holding power will resume triangulation making trans and homeless demonized like Bill Clinton doing this to Sister Souljah in 1992

and we’ll return to Oh What Will The Republicans Think. No Social Programs and Can We Get The Joe Rogan vote

New Poem: TEXAS LET DOWN RAMBLE

 hear the cartoon voice from what Molly Ivins used to call the Texas Lege and that voice says if we let them vote they’ll vote wrong so my former home state which used to acknowledge the existence of Democrats now dyes the state some hue of salamander red and applies the branding iron hoping for air conditioned passivity unquestioning faith state sponsored narrow version of Jesus Christ in the school system 

and here’s Beto O’Rourke fund raising and that’s not much of a bulwark against chicken fried fascism

New Poem: CHEMOTHERAPY

 lay back in the chair

 with the picc line connected

 first the hydration 

 then the anti-nausea med

 after that the preparation 

 for the following week’s hospital stay 

 *

 the above interrupted partway through 

 for prepared lunch:

 sandwich chips peaches in syrup plus cookie

 >

 see the other patients in the room

 the one next to me wants to live

 his regular life in spite of the fatigue

 hoping he’ll have extra years 

 from his time in the chair

 connected to bags of liquid 

 which empty in thirty minutes

Donald Trump trying to run and hide from Jeffrey Epstein’s ghost.

 In which the President of the United States (via his virtual megaphone Truth Social) tries hard to avoid any further discovery of his sybaritic friendship with Jeffrey Epstein/any possible Secret Sharer disclosures regarding somewhat younger women/any discoveries of Pam Bondi looking the other way/potential outing of Republicans (or Democrats) on the Epstein List by again playing the getting-tired Fake News card:

We have proudly held to account ABC and George Slopadopoulos, CBS and 60 Minutes, The Fake Pulitzer Prizes, and many others who deal in, and push, disgusting LIES, and even FRAUD, to the American People. This lawsuit is filed not only on behalf of your favorite President, ME, but also in order to continue standing up for ALL Americans who will no longer tolerate the abusive wrongdoings of the Fake News Media. I hope Rupert and his “friends” are looking forward to the many hours of depositions and testimonies they will have to provide in this case.

DONALD TRUMP’S 50TH BIRTHDAY LETTER TO JEFFREY EPSTEIN

This likely won’t move the needle on the Epstein Files, but should give Donald Trump some dyspepsia in the short term.


From THE WALL STREET JOURNAL: 

It isn’t clear how the letter with Trump’s signature was prepared. Inside the outline of the naked woman was a typewritten note styled as an imaginary conversation between Trump and Epstein, written in the third person.

“Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything,” the note began.

Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is.

Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is. 

Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey. 

Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it. 

Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that? 

Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you. 

Trump: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.

The letter bearing Trump’s name, which was reviewed by the Journal, is bawdy—like others in the album. It contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly “Donald” below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.
