Contempt of Congress

The time had arrived in Judicial Committee
The session was tense and the speeches not pretty
Republicans making disputable claims
The Democrats stating Bill Barr was to blame

Ignoring subpoenas that he testify
Before a House hearing, which he did defy,
And, too, to release the Bob Mueller report
Without the redactions. Else they would resort

To hold in contempt, Barr, for all his inaction
And that’s what they did, venting dissatisfaction
With Barr and with Trump, all subpoenas stonewalling
Defying our land’s Constitution’s sound writing

A clear Constitutional crisis is brewing
Their pledge to uphold it, the Reps are eschewing
While President Trump breaks the law at his leisure
Assuming all power is his, at his pleasure

The Dems must continue to hold Trump accountable
Fighting Trump’s power grabs, raw and despicable
Fighting to keep our Republic alive
So that our great great grandchildren can thrive
