It’s Public

The Nunes memo, twisted though it be
Has been released for everyone to see
And make of it what they would most desire
Believing that most won’t know they are liars

To Donald Trump it is his vindication
His rationale for Mueller’s resignation
To Freedom Caucus it gives evidence
Of FBI malfeasance sans defense

Some Senators shout Treason, send to jail
Rod Rosenstein and others without bail
This scandal worse than anything they’ve seen
All based upon this memo, what they’ve gleaned

Of Mueller’s probe the memo has no word
That it’s Trump’s vindication is absurd
It talks about surveilling Carter Page
Renewing FISA’s warrant at this stage

The warrant was reviewed by judge and court
They ruled it justified in their report
So Rod and others signed; they should proceed
Surveilling Page to monitor his deeds

This was the fourth renewal of the warrant
Since Page’s Russian actions were still current
The memo criticized this FISA action
There’s nothing there to gain this kind of traction

Since few will read the memo, their conceptions
Will most be shaped by talk-host predilections
All based on biased factual distortions
By memo drafters cherrypicking portions

Treason

In infamy these days will be recalled
As chills pervade not due to winter’s season
While breaking news unfolds I am appalled
Observing politics transform to treason

That Nunes memo fraught with claims in doubt
Accused Rod Rosenstein of gross malfeasance
To give excuse for Trump to force Rod out
In doing, set the stage committing treason

Chris Wray, Director of the FBI
Beseeched the President with urgent passion:
There’s data that’s top secret; men could die
Releasing it is tantamount to treason

It now appears the White House helped to write
The Nunes memo, like in prior seasons
The House Intel. Committee has lost sight
Of its true mission, turning more to treason

Paul Ryan, Nunes, Trump in execution
Discrediting the FBI; their reason:
Protecting guilty Trump from prosecution
In doing so, I say, committing treason
