Nationally Syndicated Editorial Cartoonist
My first thought when I saw Oklahoma Republican Senator Markwayne Mullins challenging a witness to a physical fight was, "This guy's a United States senator?" Even from Oklahoma, a senator should act like a senator. What's going on with Republicans in Congress anyway? Over on the House side where Republicans are in control, former Speaker...

The Supreme Court issued a "code of ethics" which is a first for the the highest court in the land but doesn't actually insert a new ethics policy or guideline for the justices to follow. The "code" doesn't place any new guidelines on corrupt justices like Clarence Thomas, who has taken luxury vacations, loans for... Continue Reading →
If you don't see the threat Donald Trump presents to this nation, then you're betraying it. When I showed this cartoon to proofreader Laura today, as I do for every cartoon, she replied that this was more truth than satire and the cartoon made her "queasy," which means it's a good cartoon. Alexandra Petri wrote... Continue Reading →
A lot of Americans have this belief that the United States is the most popular nation in the world and everybody wants to come here. Without ever citing anything specific, other than "freedom," they claim the U.S.A. is the best country in the world. But the truth is, most people in the world don't want... Continue Reading →
I read a comment today by one of the regular trolls on GoComics that was totally off-subject but howled about President Joe Biden being corrupt. Republicans, conservatives, and MAGAts have mastered messaging. All it takes is to repeat the same lie over and over again. Current polling is proof that it works. Of course, the...

I have two predictions. The first is I'm going to get a lot of heat for this cartoon and the second is that The Washington Post is not going to publish it. I'm not trying to please everybody with my cartoons on the Israeli/Gaza War. I feel like I need to address every concern and... Continue Reading →
All these roughs were drawn last Friday, November 3. These two idiots, yeah. Here is the cartoon I did published on them. I thought this was OK but honestly, I don't think the idea is strong enough for a crowd scene that would have taken me hours to draw. I didn't love this. This became... Continue Reading →
A disturbing new poll from The New York Times and Sienna College has Donald Trump ahead of President Joe Biden in five of six swing states that will decide the 2024 presidential election. The good news for President Biden is that this is early and there's still a year to go. The bad news for... Continue Reading →
President Joe Biden has very low approval ratings nationally while political analysts keep saying Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, a Republican, is popular in Virginia. But a poll conducted by the University of Mary Washington Center for Leadership and Media Studies (right down the street from me) last September says in a hypothetical presidential general election...
