Danger At the Capitol

The democrat’s in quite a fight -
an umbrella could not end plight.
     The needles are fine,
     so rabies won’t shine.
It’s capital when a fox serves a bite.

On April 5th Representative Ami Bera was bitten by a fox
on the way to the Capital for votes.

Must have been a South Korean 9-tailed fox as they are upset with Biden's insistence that South Korea reduce sales of microchips and batteries to China due to China's support of Putin! What a tangled web! Aloha!

I saw that about that rabid fox. That fox out foxed the leaders. I hope all of them will be okay from their exposure to rabies. My mother's father died from a rabid dog bite when my mother was 5 years old. Her mother was left with 5 children from age 12 to 6 months to rear on her own. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara
