High Crimes and Misdemeanors
Dear Editor:
An invasion by any other name.
There is a new, New Colossus. This time, Lady Liberty casts her gaze across the harbor with an incredulous frown.
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” – Emma Lazaris, 1883
“Give me your lawless, your organized criminality, your fentanyl dealers,
Your huddled masses yearning to be set free without bail to commit more mayhem,
The wretched refuse of your empty prisons and mental institutions.
Send these, so the homeless Mainers be tempest-tost, neglected and forgotten,
so taxpayers may furnish EBT cards and cash to the angry and ungrateful.
I lift my lamp beside the golden door! ... for those on the most wanted terror list, send me woke progressive Democrats nay destroy the greatest country in the world.”
