Yesterday, someone commented on my Facebook post about my roughs, telling me to "be careful" because some cartoons could land me in Facebook jail. Seriously? I don't already know that? I'm the king of being thrown into Facebook and other social media jails. And how am I supposed to be careful with posting my cartoons... Continue Reading →
Roughs, Volume 175
Ding dong! Roughs are here! All of these were drawn last Thursday, March 16, and Friday, March 17. I was already whipping up ideas for CNN when Donald Trump truthed that he would be arrested on Tuesday (which didn't happen). This is actually the second rough of this idea. I threw away the first as... Continue Reading →
Tick-Tock, TikTok
TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew testified for hours yesterday before the House Energy and Science Committee and was hammered from the left and the right. Washington observers came away with the impression that it was a huge disaster for TikTok. But content creators on TikTok were less impressed by the Washington establishment. Full disclaimer: I'm...

Woke Banks
Pardon me while I pat myself on the back here but this is the difference between me and right-wing MAGAt fucknut editorial cartoonists. In fact, it's not just me but also the difference between many liberal cartoonists and the MAGAts. Liberal cartoonists research. MAGAts use the most simplistic talking point that's handed to them. They... Continue Reading →
Underdogs
The University of Virginia has always been good to me. The Center for Politics at UVA has had me speak and take part in seminars and while doing so, they've put me in nice hotels, a great bed and breakfast, have fed me in swanky restaurants, and even once gave me football tickets. Yeah, it... Continue Reading →
Lock Him Up
Donald Trump "truthed" that he's going to be arrested on Tuesday. It's Tuesday. As Ted Knight said in Caddyshack, "Well? We're waiting." Republicans are in an uproar over the possibility Donald Trump will be indicted and arrested in Manhattan over the hush-money payment scheme to porn star Stormy Daniels. It didn't work because we still... Continue Reading →
Cakes For War Crimes
One of my proofreaders isn't entirely comfortable with this cartoon. While she's not a fan of Bush, Cheney, and the war in Iraq, she disagreed with calling them war criminals and comparing them with Putin. She has a valid point and I always appreciate her input. I don't just send my cartoons to her for... Continue Reading →
Support Balloons
Here’s your cartoon for this week’s CNN Opinion newsletter. Please sign up to get these in your inbox every Sunday When China sends a spy balloon to fly over the United States (and other nations), it lies. When Russia knocks down a U.S. drone in international air space over the Black Sea, it lies. I hadn't gotten... Continue Reading →
MAGA-Lardo Subpoenas
Donald Trump is preparing to be arrested by the Manhattan District Attorney next week, politicizing it, fundraising off it, and trying to create another violent riot from it. This case stems from paying hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016, days before the election, to keep quiet about boinking in a Las Vegas... Continue Reading →
Roughs, Volume 174
This batch of roughs was Thursday, March 9. I only drew seven and I took one out for possible future use. I don't know if there's anything special here since you've seen the final products from four of these. My editor assigned Nikki Haley and her proposal to raise the retirement age for people who...
