Pave Our Parks

August 22, 2024 Buck Banks

Florida’s Ron DeSantis has always been a fan of sports,
But his current game is enriching his GOP cohorts.
He feels it’s his Christian duty
To double down on meanness and cruelty,
So he’s turning our state parks into golf courses and pickleball courts.

Secretary of Losing

August 17, 2024August 18, 2024 Buck Banks

With his presidential campaign on all but life support,
RFK Jr. is lobbying for a cabinet post, according to reports.
He’s approached the Trump campaign,
And with Harris, sought the same,
But so far, no one has promised him Secretary of Dead Bear Transport.

One Lame Campaign

August 16, 2024 Buck Banks

It’s pretty widely agreed: Trump’s campaign is a hot mess,
No one asserts anymore he’s playing thee-dimensional chess.
It’s a funny kind of campaign,
Based on lies, invective and blame,
And featuring press conferences at his golf courses — without the press.

Don’t Monkey Around

August 14, 2024 Buck Banks

Just when you thought you’d had all your shots
At your local neighborhood doc-in-the-box,
The World Health Organization
Offered some alarming information:
There’s a raging global outbreak of the dreaded monkey pox.

Yale Drag Fail

August 12, 2024 Buck Banks

As a teen, JD questioned, which doesn’t make him a fag.
While at Yale, he dressed like a girl (we assume) as a gag.
The eyeliner was smokey,
But the blonde wig was hokey,
And Trump’s VP looked like a childless cat lady in drag.

He’s Just Unbearable

August 6, 2024 Buck Banks

No doubt, it’s a quixotic campaign on which he’s embarked.
So, is Robert Kennedy Jr. serious or is it all just a lark?
Why hasn’t his anti-vaxxer conspiracy
And bug-eaten brain shit-canned his candidacy?
And do we really want to elect a guy who dumped a dead bear in Central Park?

‘Repulsive’ Racist Rhetoric

August 2, 2024August 2, 2024 Buck Banks

It’s not just the usual Trumpian racist attack,
Or the “birther” soundbites from that tired old soundtrack.
On stage at the NABJ,
Trump came up with something creative to say:
Kamala Harris isn’t Black, she “turned Black.”

Trumpers Deny, Defer, Depart

August 1, 2024 Buck Banks

For Republicans, it’s become something of an art —
Dealing with media over Trump’s latest brain fart.
In a return to 2016,
He resurrected his anti-Black theme,
Leaving GOPers no alternatives but “deny, defer and depart.”

The 2025 Zombie

July 31, 2024 Buck Banks

Don’t be fooled by changes reported at Project 2025,
That plan to turn government into a right-wing hive.
The press says it’s falling apart,
That Dems and Trump staked its evil heart,
But like a zombie, it may seem dead, but it’s very alive.

Beware, Robed Rogues

July 30, 2024July 30, 2024 Buck Banks

So, Joe Biden has decided to float us
His plan for fixing a corrupt SCOTUS.
It’s light on the specifics,
But heavy on the ethics.
Warning, robed rogues — don’t f*ck with a lame-duck POTUS!

Dishonest to a Fault
Buck Banks | Jul. 22, 2026

From Trump’s “stolen election” lies, we can’t get no relief,
He carps on about stolen votes, but he never names the thief.
Somebody needs to tell this guy
Americans aren’t buying his lies,
And that he’s turned us into the United States of Disbelief.

    $4,600

    President Donald Trump is asking for $1,500,000 million for the military for next year. That’s close to $600 billion (adjusted for inflation) more than we were spending on the military in fiscal year 2025, before Trump took office, Alternet reports. This increase is huge by any measure. It comes to around $4,600 per household. It is around 8% of the total budget.

    61% to 35%

    Wall Street Journal: “Around 40% of voters in the 2024 election said the economy was their top issue, far outstripping any other matter. And those voters favored Donald Trump by 60% to 38%. Many say they were moved by his pledges to tame inflation, rebuild U.S. infrastructure, cut red tape and trim government waste. … About a year and a half later, more voters disapprove of Trump’s handling of the economy than approve, 61% to 35%, an average of polls by the Cook Political Report found this month.”
