Hot Gas — Cheap!

July 22, 2026July 22, 2026 Buck Banks


The Freedom Gas Network mystery has been solved,
Almost overnight in PA and NJ the stations evolved.
So, we wonder, how do they keep
Gas prices so relatively cheap?
Some think that 200,000 gallons of stolen fuel is involved.

Dishonest to a Fault

July 22, 2026August 11, 2026 Buck Banks


From Trump’s “stolen election” lies, we can’t get no relief,
He carps on about stolen votes, but he never names the thief.
Somebody needs to tell this guy
Americans aren’t buying his lies,
And that he’s turned us into the United States of Disbelief.

Hegseth’s War on Hypogonadism

July 19, 2026 Buck Banks


Though Pete Hegseth seems overly focused on makeup and hair,
He also wants his troops to be battle-ready and fully prepared.
To be at their “absolute best,”
They’ll take a testosterone test,
And if found deficient, will receive gender-affirming health care.

Iconic and Ironic

July 15, 2026 Buck Banks


Donald Trump has done a heckuva job leading our grateful nation.
For his many projects and interior designs, he deserves an ovation.
So what to give a guy who has everything —
Another plaque, or a medal or a signet ring?
How about a 10-foot-tall gold trophy for “Iran War Participation.”

R.I.P. Lindsey

July 13, 2026 Buck Banks


He was known in the Senate for his special brand of feydom,
And when it came to Trumpian ass-kissing, he was a perfect specimen.
We’ll remember him as someone less than grand —
Standing alone at Disney World, bubble wand in hand.
But now it’s time to say goodbye and good riddance, Lindsey Graham.

    $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.

    61% to 35%

    Wall Street Journal: “Around 40% of voters in the 2024 election said the economy was their top issue, far outstripping any other matter. And those voters favored Donald Trump by 60% to 38%. Many say they were moved by his pledges to tame inflation, rebuild U.S. infrastructure, cut red tape and trim government waste. … About a year and a half later, more voters disapprove of Trump’s handling of the economy than approve, 61% to 35%, an average of polls by the Cook Political Report found this month.”
