Numb. 1337 A Road Foresaken? (plus clipped from the headlines 02/28/2025)

Mexico Begins to Release Dozens of Cartel Operatives Into U.S. Custody — New York Times

 

WHY does U.S., now under TRUMP,

persecute entrepreneurs?

Paragons of CAPITALism,

Ayn Rand-types, the right-wing adores?

Guys who supply, fulfill our demand

to get and stay high. “Invisible hand

of the marketplace”? Get it?

Cripes, I can’t type 

how often you’ve said it!

“DO NOT INTERFERE!

LET MARKETPLACE RULE!”

You're acting like Democrats. (“Cato, you fool!")

And don’t even mention drug-use prevention.

Holy unjustified BIG STATE intervention!

Damn it to hell! These guys are swell!

Merely a newborn BIG PHARMA cartel.

Let them incorporate, let 'em go public.

Offer stock options. Like true Republicans.

Numb. 1336 Deepen The Heart

Unvaccinated Child Dies of Measles in Texas, Officials Say — New York Times

 

Would that we could 

create a vaccine 

to deal with stupidity.

If only it were a virus.

In your dreams!

Beyond our means.

It is not a virus.

The stupid's inside us.

Numb. 1335 Donnie Ponders Career Change

When the Pope dies

can I replace him?

Then if I'm Pontiff.

must I wear white?

 

The Vatican gold

I have been told

by those in the fold

's a sight to behold.

 

 

But if the Pontiff

has to be celibate,

throne, gold ... whatev' —

I say the hell with it.

Numb. 1334 Mount Trump, More Erosion

 

                   Ozymandias

       By Percy Bysshe Shelley

 

I met a traveller from an antique land,

Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone

Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,

Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,

And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;

And on the pedestal, these words appear:

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;

Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay

Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare

The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

Numb. 1332 Clipped From The Headlines 03/23/2025 plus Elon And Stephen (adams in eden doing their best sgt. schultz)

 Elon and Bannon? They are not NAZIs.

That’s a ridiculous hypothesis.

While Stephen-Two-Shirts may don brown or black,

Muck wears but one shirt and simply lacks tact ...

was unaware that his faux pas salute

could even be seen as not being cute,

a wave to das volk as his sprecht ended.

Niemand Sieg Heiled! Nichts offense intended.

Numb. 1331 Sense Your Ship

If Congress had balls,

they'd impeach Trump.

But no matter whatever

they can’t impeach Muck.

He's so unofficial

he can’t be discharged.

So whatever happens,

he’ll still be in charge.

Trump is perforce, of course, a reminder

of how deformed our politics are.

Many contend they love democracy,

while in their hearts they wish for a Tsar.

A Little Father, his boot on the neck

of any who show insufficient respect,

who would replace the former majority

which could not conceive and became a minority,

thus posing a problem that must be surmounted

by carefully choosing which votes are counted.

They love the flag. (Or, at least, wave it.)

The Constitution? Destroy it to save it!

Numb. 1330 One Flu Over Trump Coup-Coup Nest

Ben, frankly, said, “...if you can keep it”,

outside that closed-windowed, hot, humid hall.

And, for a while, keep it we did,

however, in time, all things will fall.

[Compare this we must, 

to “destroy it to save it”.

However unpleasant,

our species doth crave it.]

But let's pretend it isn't all over,

that moving forward “we can be friends”.

A Republic in theory, but with uncertain benefits.

Government “of, by, and for” us having come to

the end.

Numb. 1329 Trump Cards On Table: Russia - Ukraine

Vladimir does not lie to me.

He says I look young.

Handsome and trim.

There is some debate 

whether I’ve put on weight.

But I “carry it well”, 

according to him.

Zelenskyy, you pudgy, Uke-Jewish midget,

accept that your prospects are grim.

Give me your minerals 

or I’ll let Vlad’s criminals

have their way with your women and

children.

All down to you. Choosing your fate.

Old ‘Mutha' Russia? New U.S. state?

Nimb. 1328 Clipped From The Headlines 02/19/2025

Numb. 1327 Trump Foreign Policy (other than Gaza, which, once he's done, will not be foreign)

“Ukraine” is right, fully Russian.

Like “Canada” is the U.S.’s

And “Taiwan” is China’s

Both “Koreas”, Kimmie’s.

(As I love to call him

because it's so whimsical.)

I could take Cuba,

linked to Puerto Rico,

haul ’em into OUR Gulf

and sink ’em.

GOP's Remorse/Regret?

Start sculpting Rushmore.

They haven't seen

anything yet.

Can't wait to see Putin,

my dear “Little Stallion”.😉😉😉😉

We'll have such fun.

I am Napoleon.

Who, someone told me,

did stuff with Russia.

What's that about?

Howdid it turn out?

Numb. 1326 GOP American Endgame Strategy (A Tragedy)

The RNC does not like democracy.

In fact, we don’t like the name of our party.

Since, for some time, we’ve favored theocracy,

we have rebranded: God’s Only Party.

While a good president like Donald is fine,

due diligence dictates we look down the line,

anticipating some sad future time

when Satan reclaims that office divine. 

The Constitution must be amended correcting mistakes Founders never intended, White Male Protestant clergy empowered

to elect from their number an “Ayatollah” to oversee President, Congress, and Courts

(who, doing voodoo, with demons consort), so that we, nearly, may mirror Iran,

as these damn deities probably planned.

Numb. 1325 Libertarian POV

U.S.A. U.S.A. U.S. f-in' A!

This was sposta be a free country!

Free means no F-IN' vaccines.

No helmets, seat belts, insurance preems.

I buy and sell cheap: rotten fruit, rotting meat.

How is THAT government’s business?

Some n@%$ get sick but, hey, they eat.

Most will survive. I make a profit.

I gotta license my pit bull, my car?

I bought ’em with what I had left

after tax-bitches steal my incentive

then go ‘unh-uh!’ when I get inventive?

I drive 95 in my Springsteen machine.

I support cops. (If they DO what they’re sposta!😉)

MF Barney Fifes start pullin’ ME over?

That's me on the wall on a MOST WANTED poster.
