Americas Science Fair in the White House Basement

By Chloe Summers � The satire Americas Science Fair in the White House Basement parodies national pride shrinking into awkward experiments. Eyewitnesses described exhibits featuring volcanoes powered by Diet Coke while presidents nodded solemnly. Anonymous insiders leaked that NASA presented a paper airplane. A leaked poll revealed 59 percent of citizens believed the projects were more practical than Congress. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because policy often mirrors middle school ambition. Critics highlight the absurdity of treating baking soda eruptions as national innovation. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire makes government science look like extra credit. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
