Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to the unmitigated disaster that is No Tab Pete Hegseth.
Over time, we’ve seen warmonger Pete
Is incompetent, dumb, and effete.
He’s a chest-thumping wanker
Who’s served as an anchor
And can’t see beyond his conceit.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks wonder who the Flock is taking our data now.
Lest dystopia felt too remote,
Flock has helped our surveillance state bloat.
Despite each reassurance,
The spies show endurance—
And hit an Orwellian note.
Some insights into my most recent #FridayLimericks offering, along with an unabashed shout-out to @JoyceWhiteVance’s fantastic work (with no implication that she endorses my highbrow juvenile stylings).

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to the latest iteration of a lie built to undo democracy.
Trump’s approval is plummeting still.
Enter Lutnick, a most eager shill.
Brought a new line of shit
For a tried-and-false bit:
Blame the foreigners; you know the drill.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to Max Miller, the GOP’s jackass measuring stick.
In political circles we know
The most virtuous tend not to go.
Though McCarthy might say
They send bad folks away,
One Max Miller’s exposed the whole show.

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to Rand Paul, who just can’t quit Dr. Fauci.
The Kentuckian can’t get enough
Of accosting the doc in a huff.
An enduring confession
Of ongoing obsession
Till Fauci at last called his bluff.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks return to noted rectal polyp Elon Musk.
Long since DOGE had its ne’er-do-well day,
Elon Musk has remained in the fray.
Though he’s rich, can’t amass
A scintilla of class,
And this leech is determined to stay.
For those who might be looking for #FridayLimericks tonight, I’m taking this week off as I prepare a eulogy and a weekend trip. I expect to be back at it next Friday. In the meantime, I’ll offer up a still-relevant thread from last year.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks look at how John Roberts brought us here.
With redistricting wars in full swing,
Our democracy’s feeling the sting.
The Chief Justice’s role
Suggests this was the goal—
Giving oligarchs air underwing.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch as the admin’s metaphors keep growing more apt.
All the garbage this President’s hurled
Serves his effort to remake the world.
This destruction is mapped
By more metaphors apt
Than this nation has ever unfurled.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks check on the fruit of the poisonous ICE tree.
After ICE Barbie fell from her horse,
Some claimed DHS set a new course.
Though they’ve grown more discreet,
This group’s core is replete
With malicious, incompetent force.

On the eve of 250, tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch it all coming down.
U.S. “greatness” has long been the claim
Through which leaders established our frame.
Like the New Year’s Eve ball,
We’re now watching it fall—
And the Prez is the face of our shame.

We’re now halfway through 2026, which makes it a great time to look back and see how we got here. #FridayLimericks 2025: With All Due Respect… is my second collection of sourced threads on an unfortunate topic of the day. Buy it, and stay tuned for more!

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch the regime celebrate corruption.
J.D. Vance has been taking some heat
For his downplay of Nixon’s deceit.
But the couch fucker’s right;
Next to this regime’s blight,
Dick’s corruption must take a back seat.

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch the full Trump administration pattern play out in a reflecting pool nutshell.
Trump is up to his usual tricks
With his hubris-incompetence mix.
The reflecting pool plot
Shows us all that he’s got:
An admin of dumb, arrogant pricks.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to the parade of doofuses trying desperately to prop up a decrepit president.
While the President’s crapping his pants,
All the hangers-on stick to their dance.
Whether avarice-born
Or the fearful forlorn,
They pump up the dude’s craziest rants.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks go to noted dildo slapper Bill Pulte.
The intelligence chief (for a bit)
Is Bill Pulte, a legacy git.
There’s a whiff of manure
From this dipshit du jour,
Here to stir up more trouble, then split.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch Freedom250 celebrates the worst of what we are.
Anniversary stuff’s set to convene,
So Trump’s forced a grotesque little scene.
Love of country thus shifts
To one more of his grifts;
It’s a motive that’s easy to glean.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks nod to the Senate GOP confederacy of Susans.
With a holiday coming, we’ve learned
Of Republicans growing concerned.
Susan Collinsing masses
Rise up from their asses—
Then leave before bridges are burned.
Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch the invasion of the data centers.
With no shortage of hell to combat,
The AI bots have entered the chat.
The exorbitant cost
And the resources lost
Are the mess that the tech bros have shat.
Today, May 12, is National Limerick Day, with the date selected for Edmund Lear’s birthday. Ways you can celebrate include reading limericks, writing limericks, celebrating the satirically silly in the world, and purchasing #FridayLimericks collections by a writer you may know.
