Ersatz Filial Piety

July 12, 2026July 31, 2026 Buck Banks


Eric Trump got the Palm Beach airport renamed in honor of his pop,
But the vain attempt to curry favor with daddy was bound to flop.
See, the logo Eric provided
Has now widely been derided
As just another instance of half-assed Trump-produced AI slop.

Kicking EAC’s Ass

July 10, 2026 Buck Banks


Donald Trump is determined to influence the 2026 midterm election,
And the subservient conservative Supreme Court gave him permission.
Trump fired the Democrats on the EAC,
And how that effects the midterms, we’ll see,
But the mob boss likely will get his way — through subversion and coercion.

Where Credit Is Due

July 9, 2026 Buck Banks


When Walmart slashes prices, you can’t ignore it.
If it means more affordable food, you have to adore it.
Donald Trump is allergic to “affordability,”
Unless it’s someone else’s liability,
So when Walmart cut costs, Trump shabbily tried to take credit for it.

20 Minutes with Mitch

July 8, 2026July 24, 2026 Buck Banks


The recent news out of Kentucky was just awful,
They found the senator unconscious and horizontal.
And since his hospitalization,
There’s been little news about his condition,
But now everybody’s having a 20-minute conversation with Mitch McConnell.

Undead Democracy

July 6, 2026 Buck Banks


Mike Johnson and John Thune maintain they are blameless,
Even though the House and Senate seem equally aimless.
The president’s a pill,
So they can’t pass a bill,
And that’s how we ended up with our do-nothing zombie Congress.

Never-Ending Dividending
Buck Banks | Sep. 12, 2026

Pundits say that Trump’s $5,000 midterm bribe was an overreach,
And they agree that if lies were a crime, he’d be impeached.
Despite all the dividend promises he’s made,
The fact is, not one has ever been paid,
So even before the midterms, he already owes us $8,000* each.

*$5000 stimulus checks via “DOGE dividend”; $2000 stimulus checks via a “tariff dividend”; $1000-plus checks via “savings” from expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies
