Lawless low Barr’s depths of depravity

Lawless low Barr’s depths of depravity
Lawless low Barr’s depths of depravity

Brutal Boss Tweet extorts the border—
Lawless low Barr screams, “Law and order!” 
$campaign manager 
masquerading as proper copper—
Third Reich thug; mirror-avoiding
criminal ‘crime-stopper…’

Church front photo-op
calling corrupt top cop;
Ol’ lawless low Barr—
reality Tsar;
William The Redactor 
a very bad actor;  
Highly improper 
corrupt top copper;
Striking Stone with Flynn—
‘pardonable’ sin?
Flynn-Stones of the world; 
swastikas unfurled…

Was his thuggish Portland show the last straw,
recusing himself from the rule of law?
Should low Barr disbar and arrest himself—
spend the rest of his life on an ICE shelf?
