“Trump removes DHS Secretary Kristi Noem after controversial tenure:
In his post, Trump praised Noem as having ‘served us well’ and praised her for ‘numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!’).’”
—The Washington Post

She built a face of plaster;
Her lips were rubber-coated;
But still she irked her master,
And now she’s been demoted.

Her record he’s defending;
No word of botch or bungle;
But now she’s apprehending
The ethics of the jungle.

The wolves that she’s been thrown to
Are ones she once insisted
No mercy should be shown to,
And gleefully delisted;

Now she herself’s de-POTUSed,
Whereon a thankless nation’s
In hopes the wolves have noticed
That dogs are their relations.
