Supreme Court hearing, did you hear
‘Twas twenty twenty one that year
The year the presidential coup
Almost succeeded; Trump v. you

At issue here: Was Trump immune
From prosecution? ‘Twas his tune
Since he was President, you see
His acts were legal. He was free

Trump’s justices, the bush beat ‘round
With hypotheticals unsound
Did not address the issue’s core
Revealing biases galore

Their tactic: to delay, it’s clear
The trial of Trump until next year
Beyond elections in the Fall
And possibly no trial at all

The Court’s behavior does reveal
The dangers of this Court are real
Their claim of justice is a fake
Democracy, itself’s at stake

So stark today’s comparison
With Trump creating history
Deflated in his misery
First President to be on trial
Been charged with deeds felonious

While Biden with his counselors met
Deciding what’s the best response
To Natanyahu on Iran’s
Three hundred drones and missiles sent
At Israel – which were shot down

Who would you choose as President?

• Tsavah
  
  It’s not the tsavah that I knew
  It’s not the Hel Avir, my friends,
  When Israel was still quite new
  And I designing things for them
  Then Golda was Prime Minister
  Unlike old Bibi, now P.M.
  Who’s actions board on sinister
  Who really doesn’t give a damn
  That three and thirty thousand died
  Block-buster bombs on Gaza dense
  Civilians found no place to hide
  Plus Hamas tactics, no pretense
  They used civilians as their shields
  
  One hundred thousand protesters
  Israelis taking to the fields
  And streets around Jerusalem
  Amounts to more than one percent
  Of Israel’s total population
  One percent, a delegation
  Telling Bibi to resign
  Maspeak! Enough! Now is the time!
