Time for a DOGE Dance Party

CONGRATS, US Attorney General PAM BONDI! This week, you've earned yourself a free Johnny Punish song—personally dedicated to your brazen contempt, grotesque behavior, and utter disregard for the U.S. Constitution, due process, and the Supreme Court. What a legacy!

She walks in like a loaded gun
Heart full of chaos, lips taste like fun
Takes your number, carves it in her shoe
Says Baby, I see right through you

She’s got stilettos, sharp as knives
Collects ex-lovers like trophies in a dive
Gold card smile, jet-black soul
You’re just another name on her scroll

She's sugar with a razor blade twist
Kiss her once and she don’t miss

Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
She’s the queen of charm as she steals your loot
Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
She’ll kiss your neck then cut it loose
Yeah!

Came from money, never had to beg
Daddy bought her first hit, a bootleg
She cuts her wrist on a Mar-A-Lago shrine
Burning sage while committing her crimes

Drives a Jag like a wrecking ball
Crashes hearts and dances at the fall
Every red flag’s a fascist choice
Wrapped in chaos with a velvet voice

She’s venom in a perfume cloud
Laughs at your pain and says it out loud

Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
Flashing that smirk in a pair of jackboots
Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
She’ll ruin your world, ready set aim and shoot!
Check it out!

She’s got your records, your shirts, your band tee
Now she’s dating your drummer just to watch you bleed
Tells your mom you’re doing okay
While she’s lighting your memory on fire each day

No regrets no apologies
She’s punk rock with a law degree
Wears insanity like it’s haute couture
You’re just another body on her tour

Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
The devil wears heels she's a prostitute
Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
Don’t say her name or she’ll prosecute
Beautiful blonde in a psychopath suit
The Constitution is what they wrote
Due process is not a joke
You psycho-pathhhhhh in a SUIT!!!
Go away!
Suit
Psychopathhhhh
Suit
Suit

Why Due Process Matters

A pop song about Kilmar Abrego Garcia and Yunseo Chung and America becoming a fascist nation.

America is a Lie

She came here with her family

Only 8 years old.

Grew up like the other kids

America is her home

She went away to college

To learn and to be free

She joined protests 

for what she believed

She joined protests 

for what she believed


They ordered her arrested

‘cause our gov did not agree

She had no right to speak out

She had no freedom of speech

They tried to send her flying,
To a place she'd never known
like other students rising
She was not alone.

Because America

Is a lie

She found out America

Is a lie


He fled poverty and violence 

To a fabled promised land

The greatest nation in the world 

His future in our hands

He dreamed of a great life

Help me if you can

He said Help me if you can yea

He said Help me if you can yea


They ripped him from his car

As his child wailed and cried

They denied him all his rights

As his future quickly died

They forced him on a plane

Head bowed and wrapped in chains.

They asked for his confession

To hide their lies and shame

Because America

Is a lie

He found out America

Is a lie


We voted against Freedom

In America

We voted for fascism

In America

We voted for oppression

In America

We may never vote again

In America


Say Goodbye

Say Goodbye  

Say Goodbye

America

America Is a Lie (Kilmar Abrego Garcia)

We examine the roots of the American practice of "deportation" -- from colonial banishment of heretics, through the political upheaval over Alien & Sedition Acts, to the age of Chinese Exclusion -- which paved the way for the federal government to exercise virtually unlimited & absolute power over aliens, whom they placed outside the protection of the Constitution.
