The White House Coke

Though Hunter left his laptop at the shop,
The Woke deny he lost his White House coke,
And call the chance of Joe partaking nil—
Has anyone drug tested Dr. Jill?

On Second Thought

I’d like to be the type of guy
Whose speech is soft, with wisdom high.
Who never seems to get annoyed,
Spreads humor that is most enjoyed.
A guy folks want to hang around
And emulate to be profound.
But since that’s nothing I foresee
On second thought I’ll just be me.

Leftist Logic

Just how it is the case,
I’m not a comprehender,
That one cannot switch race,
But all can change their gender.

    Good work, Russel!!

    These are pithy, and get straight to the point.

    I like to call this sort of poem a Surgical Poetry Strike.

    Boom!

    Russel; A couple great political shots, but I really liked On Second Thought. The poem shows humility and self awareness. Most excellent! Thank you.

    I like “Leftist Logic.” Easy enough to memorize and repeat as needed.

    A commenter at a different website made this observation: If you tried to print and pass a few counterfeit bills, the DOJ would identify and find you faster than a speeding bullet. But the entire investigative capacity of the United States government can’t identify who left a small bag of coke in one of the most guarded and security-camera covered areas in the world.

    Yeah, sure.

      The worst part IMHO is that the Left either believes they don’t know whose coke it was, or knows whose it was (Hunter’s) and supports the coverup for political purposes.

        It’s likely the coke was left by some empty-headed millennial White House page. The Left wants to keep the whole matter in the dark simply because they know that the Biden administration is already getting more bad publicity right now than Hitler had in 1945. So they’ll stonewall on this issue just to protect some stupid little administrative aide, whereas in the past the responsible party would have been fired immediately and made a scapegoat, and the story would have faded away.

        The Left can’t do that, because part of their hardcore constituency is drug-using millennials and marijuana-friendly Baby-Boomers on the West Coast. So they’re stuck on the horns of a political dilemma.

        This is bonanza for us on the right, for we can:

        1) Attack the sorry state of security in the White House

        2) Point out how the Secret Service and all other investigative organs of the government are lying and covering up the facts

        3) Pour more gasoline on the moral dumpster-fire that is Hunter Biden, the self-confessed addict and bribe-taker

        4) Savagely ridicule a brain-addled President who has no control over day-to-day doings in the White House.

        Alas, don’t count on it. Our goddamned RINOs and moderates and “responsible” cuckservatives will all sing in chorus about our need to “take the high road.”

      Thanks James. I don’t anticipate any future comprehension.

    Russel, the speaker in your “Leftist Logic” need not worry, because there were plenty of times when blackface-Trudeau changed his race!

    Rebel News (September 23rd, 2019) – “Trudeau: Weirdo, racist and total hypocrite with a blackface hobby”: https://www.rebelnews.com/trudeau_weirdo_racist_and_total_hypocrite_with_a_blackface_hobby

    Regarding “The White House Coke”, it seems that President Brandon’s White House is using the same voting machine company, I mean the same CCTV company as the New York City jail where Jeffrey Epstein allegedly committed suicide.

    Russel, the start of my day wasn’t the greatest, as I went to a library book sale, only to find four men stationed in different sections, scanning each book for further resale. They just don’t move, which ruins it for those of us who love books and can’t even look at what’s there! (Has anyone else had to deal with this?) I couldn’t stand it and had to leave; but now I come to your humorous poems, and my mood was immediately lifted. Thank you, Russel! I needed this!

      Cheryl, I’m so glad that my poems lifted your day! Thanks for the lovely comment. Sorry about that crummy book sale.

    Biden’s idiot press secretary went into her usual moralistic hissy fit when a reporter asked if the coke belonged to Hunter. She put on her best outraged face and said “How dare anyone accuse the President’s son of being the one who left that bag?!?!”

    To which the proper answer would be “Because the President’s son has written about his own cocaine addiction, thereby making it public knowledge.”

    This illegitimate government is one of total lies.

    “Leftist Logic” is my favorite of these! Reminds me of this article: https://thefederalist.com/2015/06/12/if-rachel-dolezal-isnt-black-how-is-caitlyn-jenner-a-woman/

    It also reminded me of one time long ago when, after hearing a comment that it doesn’t matter what color you are, a little girl I knew said, “Great, then I want to be purple!” Perhaps today her teacher would insist that she’s trans-colored and has to be tattooed purple all over or her parents are haters!

    All good points, and pointed too, Russel, but as for the first one, perhaps they should give Joe some of the cocaine. It might improve his mental acuity.
