Lame Enhanced Games

June 3, 2026June 26, 2026 Buck Banks

When Peter Thiel and Don Jr. funded the Enhanced Games, they had one hope:
That Olympic-level athletes would perform better when competing on dope.
But world records went unbroken
And Pete and Donnie took a soakin’,
Now they’re stuck, sliding down that slippery, money-losing transhumanism slope.

A Media Catch-22

June 2, 2026June 18, 2026 Buck Banks


Pentqgon Pete’s “Defensive” Department’s created a new Catch-22,
Hegseth’s war on the media is petty, but what’s a Fox host to do?
By designating the room “classified,”
He’s left reporters hamstrung and hog-tied,
Because the PRESS can’t access the Pentagon PRESS office, they’re screwed.

The Great Negotiator

May 28, 2026June 9, 2026 Buck Banks


In negotiating with Iran, Trump can’t just pull a deal off the shelf,
Not after starting the war and then asking NATO allies for help.
The guy from “The Art of the Deal”
Is only good at the Art of the Steal,
And then he’s a great negotiator when he’s self-dealing with himself.

From Prop to Slop

May 24, 2026June 6, 2026 Buck Banks


Most authoritarians support their regime with propaganda,
It scores points with other dictators to whom they pander.
But Trump’s the kind of guy
Who likes to use AI,
Which is why his odious output qualifies as “slopaganda.”

The Persian Paradox

May 12, 2026May 30, 2026 Buck Banks


Trump’s attack on Iran was a war of his own choosing,
Though his reasons for it ran from dumb to confusing.
He said we’ve now won the war twelve times,
Though there are no “Mission Accomplished” signs.
So, if we’re winning this much, why does it feel like we’re losing?

Cute, Cuddly Coal

May 11, 2026May 28, 2026 Buck Banks


Some have characterized Trump’s environmental record as unholy,
As he guts wind and solar and focuses on fossil fuels solely.
But when trying to promote the nastiest fuel,
You need help from a traditional marketing tool —
An animated, anthropomorphized lump of anthracite named “Coalie.”

Short of a Full Deck

May 5, 2026May 19, 2026 Buck Banks


Donald Trump is finding that prosecuting a Mideast war is very hard,
Especially when you’re up against the ruthless Islamic Republican Guard.
Like he said from the beginning,
We’re not losing, we’re winning,
And as for the negotiations, Trump claims he holds “All the cards.”

Seoul Sleep-Over

May 4, 2026May 18, 2026 Buck Banks


When we think of South Korea, we think of boy bands rapping,
But every year in Seoul they hold an unusual happening.
City fathers were worried
That city life is too hurried,
So they created a festival that celebrates competitive napping.

Red Meat Rhetoric

April 29, 2026May 8, 2026 Buck Banks


The current state of our national political debate is pathetic,
And politicians’ performative stunts make us crave an emetic.
But when the bullets start flying,
Both sides start denying:
Saying MY violent rhetoric is less violent than YOUR violent rhetoric.

Maybe Probably Not

April 20, 2026May 1, 2026 Buck Banks


As a person, Donald Trump is not very nice,
He treats his job as an ongoing grift and daily heist.
Given all Trump’s chaos and crimes,
It may seem like apocalyptic End Times,
But Bible scholars agree that Trump is maybe probably not the antichrist.

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.”
