The government has
Demonstrated tyranny
By abusing the
First amendment, the freedom
Of Press, by seizing records.
Justice Department,
Why did you take months of
Telephone records?

Did you want to know
Who the whistleblowers were?
Isn’t that a crime?
How can Journalists
Do their job of reporting
With this happening?
Anonymity
Ensures sources be heard
That the state keeps quiet.

We need a free press
For accountability.
Are you wary of
Cover-ups yet? You should be.
Is this still America?
