Just wait 'til you see the Benjamin Moore Painted Desert!

To fix
Who are more than willing to leave their eternal marks.
But that clan will desire
Public land to expire.
And we'll end up with Walmart-style
National Parks!

The writing (not) on the Western Wall
We all know the settlement program isn't right.
It exacerbates the Palestinian's plight.
But dare raise the question,
Or make a suggestion
And the usual parties screech "Anti-Semite".

What more evidence do you need? (You're welcome Donald!)
U.S. Constitution, 25th Amendment
Section 4:
Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.
Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

Nessun dorma*

| *'No one shall sleep', the overwrought (and criminally exploited) tenor aria from the third act of Puccini's Turandot, 'sung' by pop stars like Jacki Evancho---oh wait maybe that will be the class act at the Inauguration. |

Kellyanne Conway, ‘Trump Whisperer,’ Will Be Counselor to President*
Looks like Kellyanne has decided to stay.
We're used to her issuing lies every day.
Never at a loss
To defend her boss
How could anyone else replace her 'con' way?

Random Thoughts
They
say that her gown cost more than three million.
Covered
with rubies: from pink to vermilion.
But
the dramatic split skirt,
Caused
every eye to avert.
She'd forgotten to maintain the Brazilian!
