RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: UKRAINE
Putin’s Payroll
“Putin isn’t losing the war in Ukraine;
He’s winning the war!”
Tucker Carlson
Remember Glenn Greenwald?
That stalwart defender of free speech
Journalistic freedom
Freedom of thought and expression
A voice against the war in Iraq
A voice against the war in Afghanistan
Who lost his voice on the war in Ukraine
Remember Tulsi Gabbard
She ran against the war on terror
Spoke out against American imperialism
Campaigned on a policy of peace
Condemned our invasion of Iraq
But found no fault with Putin’s
Invasion of Ukraine
Remember Tucker Carlson
When Fox News was a cheerleader
For all American wars?
Now he gets his talking points
Straight from the Kremlin by way of
One America News and Russia Today
Russia is losing the war in Ukraine
On the battlefield and in the forum
Of international discourse
Defending Russia’s imperial policy
After opposing American interventions
Is a classic hypocrite’s creed
And proof positive that the defender
Is on Putin’s Payroll
