About

Welcome to Shop Monkey USA, where satire meets social impact. We’re not just selling clothes—we’re selling a conversation.

In January 2025, California faced one of its worst wildfire seasons, with the Palisades and Eaton Fires devastating Los Angeles County. While thousands of homes burned and families were displaced, politicians were busy debating the Delta smelt—a tiny fish that somehow became the scapegoat for it all.

Then came the moment that inspired our brand:
Donald Trump famously declared, “For the sake of the smelt, California burnt.”

Yes, that actually happened. And in true American fashion, we decided to turn this madness into merch.

Why We Exist

At Shop Monkey USA, we believe humor is one of the best ways to process the absurdity of the world we live in. Our designs capture the chaos, controversy, and political frenzy surrounding America’s natural disasters—because if we don’t laugh, we might just cry.

But we’re not just here for the jokes. A portion of every purchase goes directly to helping victims of natural disasters across the United States. So, while our shirts might be fire, we’re actually here to put some out.

Join the Movement

Wear the satire. Spark the conversation. Help those in need.

Whether you’re here because you love the political memes, care about disaster relief, or just appreciate a good joke with a purpose, you’re in the right place.

So go ahead—grab some merch that speaks louder than a campaign slogan and let’s turn controversy into change.

🔥 Smell that coming? That’s the sound of common sense catching fire. 🔥
