"GAMES PEOPLE PLAY"

"'JUST SAYIN'"

By Vicki Lawana Trusselli Published 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read
Games People Play | Joe South | Lyrics

THIS IS A LIGHT VERSION OF MY THOUGHTS TODAY! I KNOW THE SCOPE OF IMMUNITY FOR PRESIDENTS FOR OFFICIAL DUTIES AND UNOFFICIAL DUTIES. OUR FOUNDING FATHERS ARE TURNING OVER IN THEIR GRAVES. ‘JUST SAYIN’

TODAY IS THE DAY

TO JUMP AND PLAY

THE GAMES PEOPLE PLAY

TODAY, TOMORROW, AND KINGS AND QUEENS

IT DOES SEEM

I SEE THE PREVALENCE OF THIS SCHEME

OF THE CONSERVATIVE SCOTUS

BLOATUS FOR RUMPUS.

THIS IS A DAY,

THIS IS A WEEK,

TO SPEAK

OUT ABOUT THE SCOTUS RULING.

NOW WE NO LONGER HAVE ROE VS WADE.

NO TIME FOR COOLIN’,

THIS IS NOT A SPADE

BUT A MOVE ON THE CHESS BOARD.

THE CONSERVATIVE SCOTUS GAVE FULL SCOPE

TO CORPORATIONS TO SPILL OIL, POLLUTE WATER, AND DOPE.

THE SCOTUS VOTES FOR IMMUNITY FOR PRESIDENTS

DISSENT

OF TRUTH

LIES RULE THE SCOTUS

RUMPUS

THIS IS PLAYING WITH DEMOCRACY,

THE HANDMAID'S TALE Season 1 TRAILER (2017) Hulu Series

AND INTO THE PROJECT 2025.

THIS IS ALIVE.

YOU ARE ALIVE.

WE ARE ALL ALIVE.

LET’S VOTE BLUE.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE

WITH ME

IT IS ALL GOOD.

YOU SHOULD

BUT I HAVE NO CONTROL

OVER THAT.

I DO KNOW THAT

IS THAT

I AM WITH DEMOCRACY FOR THE USA.

PEACE OUT!

I DO NOT TAKE THIS LIGHTLY!

THIS IS NOT WITH THE IDEAS OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS

OF OUR CONSTITUTION.

AS WE CELEBRATE JULY 4, 2024,

THANK OUR UNIVERSE FOR THE LAST YEAR OF DEMOCRACY.

TURMOIL AND CHAOS WILL FOLLOW THIS ELECTION!

POSITVE PERSON HERE,

AS I SIT AND APPEAR

TO BURST YOUR BUBBLE OF CHILLIN’.

DEMOCRACY RULES!

    I couldn’t have worded this better myself! The uncertainty of the very near future is terrifying.

  • Excellent words,and it is disgusting what SCOTUS is doing but because of the latest ruling Biden could remove them all and replace them with people with some morals and intelligence

    Thank you for writing this. It’s important we know about all disgraceful attempts to allow a criminal to hold office. Thank you again.

  • This is all just so scaryyyy! Hope things go well
