FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Hippocratic Party Presents the No Bell(s and Whistles) Piece (of Work) Prize to Donald J. Trump at Coralville Lake Dam, Iowa
IOWA CITY, IOWA — The Hippocratic Party today announced the presentation of its No Bell(s and Whistles) Piece (of Work) Prize to President Donald J. Trump in recognition of his distinctive approach to public leadership and peacemaking. The ceremony was held atop the Coralville Lake Dam, a symbolic site where rising waters are restrained by solid foundations — a reminder that genuine peace requires character strong enough to hold back the floods of conflict.
President Trump was in Iowa on October 22 for other engagements; however, he was unable to attend the Hippocratic Party’s event due to scheduling constraints, similar to his BBC case deposition. Despite the presence of security cameras at the presentation venue, the United States Secret Service could not guarantee protection from a rumored aerial assault by local avian residents known for “bombing” the area. Out of an abundance of caution, the President’s team declined attendance.
The award was scheduled to be presented by a local motorcycle enthusiast and food pantry volunteer, whose hope — shared by the Hippocratic Party — was that the Trump PAC might respond with a substantial donation to Iowa’s food pantries — particularly if the tribe he represents were to win re‑election — so that families struggling under the administration’s self‑described peacemaking policies could keep food on the table.
Attendees (real or implied) gathered to witness the unveiling of the prize: a golden pickleball mounted on a golden base engraved with the words “Rainbow Coalition.”
Symbolism of the Prize
The Hippocratic Party selected the pickleball as a symbol of civic cooperation. In pickleball, regardless of one’s background, tribe, or political persuasion, players can agree on the score and the server after a civil discussion — and the only real argument is whether the ball was in or out. The Party noted that this simple model of shared rules and respectful dialogue reflects the kind of public character needed for genuine peace.
The inscription “Rainbow Coalition” draws from the biblical covenant in Genesis, in which God promises never again to destroy the world by flood. The rainbow stands as a reminder of that promise — a sign of mercy, restraint, and hope. The Party emphasized that leadership grounded in humility and integrity should reflect the same spirit of covenantal responsibility.
A Standard Rooted in Scripture
The No Bell(s and Whistles) Piece (of Work) Prize invites reflection on the biblical measure of character found in Galatians 5:22–23 — the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and self‑control. The Hippocratic Party’s statement noted that public declarations of peace are not the same as the lived character of a peacemaker.
The Hippocratic Party’s Mission
Founded to expose hypocrisy and elevate accountability in public life, the Hippocratic Party champions truth over pretense, humility over arrogance, and peace with integrity. Its symbol — a hippopotamus inspired by Job 40’s Behemoth — reminds leaders that even great earthly power is small beside the majesty of the Creator.
Closing Statement
“No bells. No whistles. No peace,” the Party’s statement concluded. “When the fruit is missing, perhaps the most fitting recognition is a Piece (of Work) Prize.”
