A Trump-Worthy Ploy

July 12, 2024August 14, 2026 Buck Banks

Major Dem donors want to get rid of Joe Biden.
His stubborn obstinacy has sorely tried ’em.
So they’ll withhold $90 million,
To see if that will compel ‘im.
As D.J. Trump might say, if you can’t dissuade ’em, bribe ’em.

Doomed to Repeat

July 10, 2024August 14, 2026 Buck Banks

OK, so Biden’s debate performance was far less than great,
Spurring the usual Democratic hand-wringing and fevered debate.
Amid calls for Biden to throw in
And have an open Democratic Convention,
Somebody needs to remind the Dems what happened back in 1968.

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?”

    “Years before Natalie Harp became a key White House aide to President Donald Trump, she flooded her Twitter feed with posts demonstrating extraordinary devotion to him on January 6, 2021,” CNN reports. “Harp posted more than 150 tweets that day, urging Republicans to ‘FIGHT FOR TRUMP’ as he began his speech near the White House. She echoed the president’s talking points that the election was stolen, and amplified rhetoric of his allies, who also sought to undermine the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s election win. Harp’s X account appears suspended. It’s unclear when her account was taken down, and whether she or the platform removed her posts.”

    $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.
