Governor Woke Smoke’s $campaign:
singing Dr. Goebbels Greatest Hits
Governor Woke Smoke croons—Intentionally Loud—
Serving silent 1% pickpockets… working the crowd…
Right to work/low wage state—“Where woke goes to die”
Homeless, and in poor health—‘living’ Goebbels’ Big Lie!
$campaign funding from richest, most rightist directions
for $election suppression and fueling fascist insurrections—
mishandling migrants, homelessness—and even hurricanes
Florida’s Fuhrer’s being branded: “Boss Tweet with brains…”
Slashing social services, and leaving low-wealth stripes
he’s a groomer of Fox-box ‘white' anti-capitalist gripes—
re-klanning, book-banning, whitewashing, nazification—
The great Sunshine State’s lil “Special Psy-Operation!”
His disguised Defund The People Act—guess who it robs—
with wage-thieving, low-wage, non-union/dead-end jobs?
Knowing how fat cat reign ends—Minus the ‘Race Card—’
He’s weaponized ‘gainst our numbers…No-holds-barred!
He’s tasked with turning back clocks on blood-won gains
so, Woke Smoke is branded: “Boss Tweet with brains!”
Harvard-Yale pedigree—Woke Smoke’s more clever—
then Governor Wallace’s: “White supremacy forever!”
Land that forbids teaching of land theft/bloody chains—
though Woke Smoke’s running: “Boss Tweet with brains”
forbids teaching of enslaving Africans/killing First Nations—
Sparing ‘white’ feelings floggings/lynchings/castrations!
Woke Smoke’s culture-warring/wedge-driving/totalitarian
aping the white nationalist, fascist, authoritarian Hungarian—
1% preferred—As the new “Boss Tweet with brains—”
Calling, “Next!” for the drones, bombs, missiles and planes!

The anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and a new song are reminders that a strong hatred of the poor continues in the U.S.
The Communist Party of Kenya strongly condemns their nation's involvement in the impending occupation of Haiti.
The plan for the next occupation of Haiti involves Caribbean nations Jamaica and the Bahamas. Even far away Kenya is allowing itself to be used to give cover to a racist attack.
The U.S. is instigating a regional attack on Niger, but the people of that nation are in solidarity with others who will resist any aggression.
The expansion of the BRICS beyond Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa is an important development but not one that will challenge U.S. efforts at domination.
