With evidence damning. Hooray!

And cooperate? Gee,

Open Limerick To The White House Press

Why attend them? The press should refuse.
Russia Meddling Quatrain Duo

Saying Mueller should “put up or shut up.”

Stop trying to peddle
the weasel-word “meddle.”
‘Twas a Russian attack,
so soft-ped’ling it’s whack.
