Come for the history. Stay because nobody's draining anything. The swamp's a feature, not a bug.
Match the shirtSpecial Attraction
250 years of liberty, liability and selective memory. Mostly the last one.
Ride the Electoral Rollercoaster. Get lost in the Supreme Court House of Mirrors, where the rules change depending on who's looking. Then cool off with a Freedom Funnel Cake, fried fresh in deregulation.

Two more weeks.
Only in conversations about announcements that aren't coming.
Returns are under review. We'll announce a decision shortly.
Investor warning: past performance guarantees nothing, least of all future delivery. Shipment may be delayed by legal strategy, executive priorities, media bias, acts of Congress, weather, or the sudden discovery of an even bigger announcement that also won't happen.
Merch Department
For barbecues, family group chats and any room that could use a little less consensus.
Now with more swamp than ever. Front and back, so you start arguments coming and going.
Big, bold, battered Americana lettering. Ideal for the “say less, annoy more” crowd.
Attractions include corruption, gridlock, lobbyists, denial and souvenir mugs. The full tour. No exit.
Fine Print
E Pluribus Bunkum is a souvenir stand for the slow collapse: fake tourist posters, counterfeit optimism, commemorative delay-currency and patriotic swampwear. If you can't fix it, you may as well wear it.
No refunds. No returns. Future not guaranteed.
New poster drops, dubious commemorative notes, fake launches and the occasional real one. No spam we won't own up to.
