A Little Nobel Palm Oil
Maria Corina Machado came to meet Trump, smiling like a bride,
She came to convince “Acting Presidente” to back her Venezuela side.
She slipped him her Nobel,
So the meeting went well,
Though Trump, Machado and you and me know it was just a stinking bribe.
Even Lindsey Graham Knows Trump’s a Lunatic
“If you told him Martians came and stole votes, he’d be inclined to believe it.”
— Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), quoted by the New York Times, in secret grand jury testimony on Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss.
Most Venezuelans Want Machado to Govern
51.6%
A new AtlasIntel poll finds a majority of Venezuelans want María Corina Machado to lead their country, contradicting Donald Trump’s claim that the opposition leader doesn’t have the support to rule. More than half of Venezuelans living in their homeland — 51.6% — say Machado should take over, compared with 14% who endorse Delcy Rodríguez, who assumed the presidency this month following Trump’s military intervention.
King of Crass
We’ve always known Donald Trump was crude, callous and crass,
His thin skin and narcissism make him susceptible to sass.
So when called “pedophile protector” by a heckler
He responded with a “fuck you” and the middle finger
Because the president of the United States is a childish, vulgar ass.
Has Scalise Caught Trump’s Dementia?
“Why are prices so high under Joe Biden?”
— House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA), talking to reporters in January 2026.
Bawling Billionaire Babies
California is considering imposing a billionaire wealth tax,
And the state’s big billionaire babies are having a panic attack.
They don’t seem to see the blatant hypocrisy
Of paying millions to defend their oligarchy,
Instead of paying it forward in unselfish, altruistic acts.
The New Food McPyramid
In this Age of Obesity, government dietary guidelines are warranted,
But it’s not always what you eat — it could be the genes you inherited.
They’re recommending more dairy and red meats,
Less processed foods, less sugar, fewer sweets,
So we can thank RFK Jr., Donald Trump and McDonald’s for our new food pyramid.
