unChecked and unBalanced

Trump's acting Secretaries never get
the scrutiny our Constitution meant;
there's no place in a White House cabinet
'til Senators advise, and give consent.
Tripartite government should be a "stool"
to balance Palace 'gainst the People's Halls.
But institutions can't make men of fools
and Mitch McConnell seems to not have balls.
A crisis brewing since our nation's youth,
when Solons promulgating righteous rules
presumed a president would serve the Truth
and not empower cronies, thieves, and fools.
A public henhouse guarded by the fox
prays vainly for a second Archie Cox.
