Weaving spiders, mind the Steppes






      How tiresomely, it never fails.
      The moment we launch an entry
      tending to challenge the regime
      in power, our "readership" from
      Russia suddenly matches or ex-
      ceeds the native marketplace.
      You'd think our new Speaker
      were of investigative interest.

      It's enough to call to mind the
      plea of Bohemia, Weaving spiders,
      come not here, to be updated only
      as Naughty bots, buzz off. It's
      enough to make one think the Re-
      publican Party's own security
      apparatus can't manage a simple
      opinion sample of their own -
      not, I admit, that they're much
      in favor of any science. Well,
      let's hope we're paying for it
      in bawdy nights at Mar-a-Lago,
      and not the Secret Service fund
      for the despot's exile there.
