No Fairy Secretary

August 21, 2026 Buck Banks


For Trump, he can’t replace Karoline Leavitt with just anyone,
No, he’s thinking, the new press sec should be a mother’s son.
So he’s looking for a masculine manly man
With big balls, swinging dick and golfer’s tan.
He’s gotta be smooth, cool and fairly brimming with testosterone.

No Naval Knowledge

August 19, 2026 Buck Banks


For Donald Trump, the title “commander-in-chief” has no limits,
And so he thinks he has the naval knowledge of an Admiral Nimitz.
He wants to reposition conning towers
And go steampunk for aircraft throwers,
But he should stick to ballroom design and keep his mitts off battleships.

Lying Leavitt Leaves

August 13, 2026 Buck Banks


Karoline Leavitt is leaving the Trump White House life,
She was such a good liar, but she’s done with the tension and strife.
She was a terror at the podium,
Spewing falsehoods, spite and odium,
But she’s going to raise her babies as a Turning Point USA tradwife.

A Great Escape?

August 12, 2026 Buck Banks


Donald Trump’s approval numbers are cratering,
And his once-reliable MAGA base is wavering.
The midterms are looming,
The Iran War is booming,
Maybe what he needs is a truck airports use for catering.

The Low Road

August 11, 2026 Buck Banks


The contractor Trump hired was under-qualified and overpaid,
Though Trump says it was done by vandals with sharp blades.
But the damage wasn’t done by an Olympian vandal,
Trump did it himself, which is why it’s a scandal:
The Reflecting Pool was ruined by Trump’s 10-SUV motorcade.

Poetic Justice

Ass in a Morass
Buck Banks | Jul. 24, 2026

Trump and the Iranians seem to be in different realities,
Though they share a callousness toward the war’s casualties.
Is Trump insane
Or just insanely vain?
And how can we extract ourselves from his “Quagmire of the Vanities?”

    $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.
