the First


Not even Limbaugh can salute this mess

our media unite, from best to worst
when Trump assaults the Freedom of the Press
for Rights enumerated in the First.
The court ruled Peter Zenger must go free;
it can't be "libel" to point out frank flaws.
If we're to practice real democracy,
to punish Truth makes mockery of laws.
To date, this latest tantrum takes the cake.
Trump's stubby hands would strangle empty air.
But it's his budget numbers that are fake;
and CNN just made the figures square.
Elections are a sham, if we must choose
without free access to unfiltered news.
