I have tried to channel my anger and frustration over the election into a constructive and entertaining purpose. I’ve written a modern-day conservative protest song—a twist on that truly great song This Land is Your Land, by the old singing socialist himself Woody Guthrie. I call my version This Land Ain’t My Land, This Land Ain’t Your Land…

Ha! I see that YouTube immediately slapped one of their BS warnings on my uploaded video: “The AP has called the Presidential race for Joe Biden. See more on Google. Robust safeguards help ensure the integrity of elections and results. Learn more.”
My God, the authoritarian BS NEVER STOPS from these people!!!!
This Land Ain’t My Land
(lyrics by A.J. Smuskiewicz,
song based on This Land is Your Land by Woody Guthrie)
This land ain’t my land
This land ain’t your land
From commie California
To nutty New York island
From Marxist Minnesota
To socialist Georgia?
This land was stolen from you and me
As I was voting
In the 2020 election
I thought I was voting
For Donald Trump
But then the next day
My vote was thrown out
And another vote was given to Joe Biden
This land ain’t my land
This land ain’t your land
From very ill Illinois
To corrupt Pennsylvania
From wacko Washington
To zany Arizona?
This election was stolen from you and me
Authoritarians are winning
Freedom lovers are losing
The Constitution
Is being forsaken
I wonder how much longer
Before it’s gone forever
This land was stolen from you and me
This land ain’t my land
This land ain’t your land
From commie California
To nutty New York island
From Marxist Minnesota
To socialist Georgia?
This land was stolen from you and me
They used the virus
To scare the people
To grow their power
And crush our freedoms
And China is laughing
Because they’re winning
This land was stolen from you and me
This land ain’t my land
This land ain’t your land
From commie California
To nutty New York island
From Marxist Minnesota
To socialist Georgia?
This land was stolen from you and me
This election was stolen from you and me
Our country was stolen from you and me
What’s gonna happen to you and me?
