Maybe Probably Not

April 20, 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.

Trading News for Booze

April 20, 2026April 20, 2026 Buck Banks


We read about the resignations of Gonzales and Swalwell,
And we’ve kept up with the cease-fires and damaged oil wells.
But about the Strait of Hormuz,
We were just fed up with the news,
So we went out on a binge with our old drinking buddy, Kash Patel.

Pope on a Rope

April 16, 2026 Buck Banks


The Messiah of Mar-a-Lago is just a sin-tarnished demented dope,
Whose attempts to co-opt religion led him down a slippery slope.
So he picks stupid fights with the Vatican,
Because he thinks he’s a Medieval king who can
Appoint his own alternative, MAGA-aligned Mar-a-Lago pope.

His Mistaken Identity

April 14, 2026 Buck Banks


Trump depicting himself as Jesus is a sign of our broken zeitgeist,
At the same time, his picking a fight with Pope Leo just isn’t nice.
But we can see how the president got confused,
See, Donald Trump has grown quite used
To people exclaiming — following his words or deeds — “Jesus Christ!”

Blockade to Blockade the Blockade

April 13, 2026April 20, 2026 Buck Banks


Trump’s war in Iran is over and won, and now we’ve got it made,
But the Strait of Hormuz is still closed, and that’s affecting trade.
So what is Trump’s solution
To a stand-off without resolution?
Why, the United States will just impose an extra double-secret naval blockade.

Blockade to Blockade the Blockade

Verbatim

    “Many of our former strengths, based on our close ties to America, have become weaknesses.”

    — Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, quoted by the Associated Press.

    “Why should we keep the majority? We’ve gotten one bill passed, and that was President Trump pushing and pushing and pushing, and it took us 18 hours to get Republicans to vote for it — 18 hours straight on the Senate floor. And it’s embarrassing that we’re up here raising money to continue with the same people being up here. It’s just nonsense.”

    — Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), on Benny Johnson’s podcast.

    “People in higher-income countries are generally more likely to say their nation’s political system needs only minor or no changes, according to recent Pew Research Center surveys. Conversely, people in middle-income countries are more likely to say their political system needs major changes or complete reform. … The United States, however, is a notable exception to this pattern. Despite having the highest gross domestic product (GDP) per capita of any of our surveyed countries, 77% of Americans say the nation’s political system needs major changes or complete reform.”

    — Pew Research

    “U.S. wholesale prices surged last month as the Iran war drove up the cost of energy,” the AP reports. “The Labor Department reported Tuesday that its producer price index — which measures inflation before it hits consumers — rose 0.5% from February and 4% from March 2025. The year-over-year gains was the biggest in more than three years. Energy prices surged 8.5% from February.”
