Progressive Poet

Poems Are How I Cope Bad poetry is not a crime. It provokes. And mostly rhymes. I choose politics to post about. It’s my way to scream and shout.

Trump Is Putin's Puppet He bows to the Russian throne. Leaves Ukraine to fight alone. He sides with Putin, turns away, And sells our honor day by day.

Jan 6th: From Horror to Heros We’re funding his rewrite of American history. Beating up cops will now be considered a victory. American values have been tossed in the trash. Fight a peaceful transfer of power? You get cash!

A USA Birthday Celebration of Violence The president’s home will have a big fight. Guys beat each other up with all their might. A tribute to our fighting spirit and adventure? Nope. It’s a brawl to entertain a crazy emperor.

The Ballroom Republicans They cut healthcare. Started a war. Gas is now scarce. All prices soar. Billionaires matter. No one else wins. Fuck the ballroom Republicans.

Melania Was Distorting The Truth She says, “I met my husband in 1998.” Melania is telling a lie about that date. Dishonest Trumps always tell fables. She met the husband of Marla Maples.

Everything Is Still Crazy Agreeing to a two week ceasefire, Doesn’t mean things are not dire. Threats of war crimes hits a nerve. Trump is not suddenly fit to serve.

His Deranged Message for Easter Trump just dropped another F-Bomb. Stirring hatred instead of being calm. Trump’s Easter message is insanely odd. Praise “Allah”, the Arabic word for god?

He Has No Plan Coherence is what they dispense. The press wants it all to make sense. But his attention span has severe limits. It's really about the next 10 minutes.

The Press Needs To Grow A Spine Trump’s Iran war is a major failure. Classic example of unhinged behavior. He didn’t plan. He didn’t think ahead. Press should confront — not “he said/she said”.

The Press Ignores What Matters Most Every day reporters tell us he’s nuts. Thousands of lies for them to discuss. What they don’t do is give us a reason, Why he’s not in jail for massive treason.

Supporting Trump Has A Cost Social media filled with Republican friends, Who seek less divisiveness. Make amends. Good to see a “wash your hands” way to think, But one thing that won’t wash off? Trump stink.

Trump: An Important Question His lies and rants makes little sense. A lack of logic that’s wildly intense. The big question about his clown show: If dementia hits how would we know?

“Greatest president in American history!” Pam Bondi made members of congress laugh. Her comment was creepy. But it wasn’t a gaff. In Trump’s America there must be no grievance. Bondi showed us the new pledge of allegiance.

The Many Reasons MAGA Is Hateful

The Many Reasons MAGA Is Hateful 1/8: Grievance and anger is their whole identity. “You’ve been wronged” a core mentality. Blame immigrants their racist assessment. The MAGA world is built on resentment.

2/8: Zero-sum game is key to their views. If someone else gains they think they lose. Winners and losers define their mentality. There's no concept of shared prosperity.

3/8: White christian males should be at the top. Women, gays and minorities they must stop. Authoritarian natural order their obsession. Equality they see as severe oppression.

4/8: For decades they kept the quiet part quiet. Then Trump screamed what used to be private. He said out loud what was once distasteful. A new permission structure to be hateful.

5/8: Fox News and Newsmax scream in their face. A 24 hour rage machine to fire up their base. It's the first and last thing in their day. Media tells them what to be mad about today.

6/8: Today's economic anxiety has been weaponized. But corporate greed hasn't been recognized. Instead fascism explains why their miserable. Their told to direct anger at the vulnerable.

7/8: Life is defined by a hate-filled community. Their membership depends on zero mutiny. Their family and town is now a hate zone. They can't leave or risk being alone.

8/8: Fear. Propaganda. Permission to be cruel. Their hateful leader is seen as more fuel. Reason won't lessen their hate and spit. Because they weren't reasoned into it.

Real Jobs Story In The Fine Print They say we added 130k jobs in January. But the news is what happened annually. 2025 revised from 584k to a weak 181k. That’s a collapse no matter what they say.

Trump Fails To Indict Six Democrats They reminded servicemen to follow the law. Trump had a tantrum. Tried to indict them all. A grand jury said NO to his ugly persecution. Big win for the rule of law and our constitution.

Corruption On A Historic Scale Trump in the files over a million times? Bondi’s DOJ must be hiding many crimes. We’ve only seen 5% of those citations. World's biggest political coverup operations!

Ghislaine & Trump: Two Peas in a Pod Pedophilia & sex trafficking got her in jail. Now it’s extortion she hopes will prevail. Will Trump pardon her to end jail time? Of course he will. They both enjoy crime.

How Can They Look In The Mirror? Science is bad. Facts are fake news. Elections are rigged only if they lose. Protesters are paid. Trump’s not a dope. MAGA has created a fake reality to cope.

Closing Rural Hospitals To Help Soros? They said MAGA was for working class. But their legislation is a severe contrast. Tax cuts for the rich will make us great? GOP favors the elites they pretend to hate.

Stay Loyal To Trump OR ELSE! Kid groping videos of powerful men, Hidden for now. Made public when? Trump decides which videos to unveil. He's using Epstein files for blackmail.

Only The Bravest of the Brave A commander in a red MAGA hat, Ordered an “activity event” STAT. How to test bravery in the military? Show the “Melania” documentary.

The FBI Serves Justice or Trump? No Renee Good killing investigation? It’s a STAND DOWN ORDER situation. Kash Patel killed it for one reason: Truth would contradict Trump's version.

Trump’s Response Ugly As His Video His post showed Obamas as apes, To distract from his Epstein rapes. Asked if he’d apologize for that take, He replied, “No, I didn’t make a mistake.”

A Nationwide Shutdown About ICE On January 30 we shut things down. Don’t go to work. Don’t shop around. Money interests need to hear us loud. No business as usual. Make us proud!

ICE’s Horrific Behavior When Pretti died an ICE agent clapped. A barbaric response to the attack. Even worse, once Alex was dead, They filled his body with even more lead.

Their Enemy Is The Truth They consider a camera a weapon, Because it threatens their deception. Even if everyday Americans are dying, All that matters is hiding their lying.

There Has To Be Consequences Nurse Alex Pretti saw a woman fall. He tried to help. ICE started to maul. Pepper spray. Assault. Took his gun. A hail of bullets. That’s execution.

ICE Math Is Very Telling 2.1 million undocumented in Texas. Florida is 1.6 million. What vexes us? Minnesota’s 130,000 is a smaller population. Why is ICE there? It’s not about immigration.

Trump Fears The Midterms Rants about the Insurrection Act? He’s afraid of being being sacked. If Democrats win he’d lose control. So cancelling midterms is his goal.

Is It Really About Immigration? Who deported more — Trump or Obama? Barack wins by a lot, with no ICE drama. No masks. No guns. No one being killed. It’s the TERROR that makes Trump thrilled!

“Very Disrespectful of Law Enforcement” Lack of respect is what killed Renee Good? That’s what Trump says he understood. What this says is unbelievably dreadful. Now they’ll kill you for being disrespectful!

Time For Congress To Act It’s well known Trump should be impeached. But now a drastic urgency has been reached. His insane actions aren’t our American story. Wake up — this is 25th Amendment territory!

War for Oil = Excellent Distraction It’s not about drugs (see narco trafficker pardon). It’s Venezuelan oil that gives Trump a hard on. We’ll see a sham trial — lies to justify the attack. Epstein! Economy! Healthcare! He has to distract.

We All See What Trump’s Doing Tariffs causing big economic failings. Faltering health and awful ratings. It’s all bad. Especially Epstein data. How to distract? War with Venezuela!

Epstein’s Victims vs Trump’s Friends Release the files about the Epstein pervert! Trump, “No way! My friends will get hurt!” Getting justice for the victims is what’s fair. Hurting Trump’s friends — does anyone care?

GOP Thinks You’re An Idiot Republicans cut Medicaid by a trillion dollars. Then brought half back and expect honors? Their dishonest governing it totally bogus. They think Americans are too dumb to notice.

His Speech Was An Epic Disaster Trump hasn’t lowered prices. A big campaign promise in crisis. His speech was mainly to frighten, And blame his incompetence on Biden.

Hurt Americans = GOP Win! Republicans create a huge crisis. They want suffering. They despise us. Pay a big ransom to clean up their mess, Or they’ll call the damage itself success.
