The Squawk of Power (A Political Fable for Birds Who've Had Enough)

<p>Welcome to the Feathered Republic - where democracy squawks corruption molts and every branch is bugged.</p><p> </p><p>The Tree was once a shining beacon of unity liberty and wormfare. But now? It's gridlocked gerrymandered and ruled by Commander Talon McPlume - a puffed-up hawk with emergency powers a golden perch and a beak that never shuts. Backed by spin-doctor parrots lobbyist vultures and an owl judiciary that sleeps through subpoenas Talon runs the nest like a 24/7 news cycle on birdseed steroids.</p><p> </p><p>Inside this avian madhouse you'll find:</p><p> </p><p>A scroll scandal that makes Watergate look like a spilled birdbath</p><p> </p><p>Ghost Airports funded by invisible budgets and fueled by broken promises</p><p> </p><p>Peacocking senators who filibuster their own speeches</p><p> </p><p>Pigeons demanding postal reforms (but only if stamps come with snacks)</p><p> </p><p>A state media crow named Scrollbeak who interviews rocks and declares them traitors</p><p> </p><p>And Tailgun Scream - the shock-jock falcon screaming Birds Shouldn't Vote Unless They Pay Nest Tax!</p><p> </p><p>But not all birds are roosting quietly.</p><p> </p><p>From underground duck networks to bluejay whistleblowers the flock begins to chirp louder - tired of rigged polls fake worm reports and campaign flyers printed on recycled lies. As the great referendum nears one barkpaper ballot threatens to crack the entire nest:</p><p> </p><p>? Let the flock decide</p><p>? Let the loudest decide</p><p> </p><p>Will true democracy take flight? Or will another loudmouth hawk hijack the nest with memes and megaphones?</p>
