Now that Texas has effectively banned abortion, expect other yee-haw states to follow suit sooner than later. You might think some of these states will pause to see what the Supreme Court does in its next session, but the court already weighed in to say they're not weighing in. Plus, Republicans are too giddy to... Continue Reading →
Abortions and BBQ
Not only does the new anti-choice law in Texas make getting or giving an abortion illegal after six weeks, even in the case of rape and incest, it will punish anyone who helps a woman get an abortion. And this isn't one of those bullshit laws like the one in Alaska that makes it illegal... Continue Reading →
Last Stand
This is a big deal. This isn't like one of those times where North Carolina, Alabama, or Kentucky tampers with a constitutional right only to have a court step in and slap it down. This infringement on a constitutional right in Texas will probably stand. No, it's not going to stand because it's right. It'll... Continue Reading →
Turn Out The Lights
I have a very non-bold prediction. A year from now, a majority of Americans will be satisfied with the way President Biden handled the withdrawal out of Afghanistan. And those still giving him low marks won't remember why. Case in point: We lost fewer Americans in Afghanistan than we lost to Covid during the Trump... Continue Reading →
Ida Know
Hurricane Ida hit Port Fourchon, Louisiana on Sunday with 150-mph winds. She's now a tropical storm passing through Mississippi and headed toward the mid-Atlantic states. Over one million homes and businesses are without power in Louisiana alone. Flash floods and tornadoes may be created on her tour through the south. So far, she's responsible for...

Fun With Interpretations

In addition to struggling with having no senses of humor, being oblivious to their own hypocrisy, failing wildly at using equivalences, and not having any understanding of irony, Republicans suck at comprehension. Sure, sometimes they do understand... Continue Reading →
Love, Hate, Terror
Ashli Babbitt was a terrorist. She invaded the Capitol on January 6 with thousands of other terrorists in an attempt to overturn a democratically-held election and install an unelected dictator. They were trying to prevent Congress from certifying the election, a process mandated by the United States Constitution. Ashli Babbitt was an Air Force veteran...and... Continue Reading →
Roughs, Volume 104
I drew 13 roughs last week. All of these were created a week before the terrorist attack at the Kabul airport, so keep that in mind. A few of these grew up to become real cartoons while the window has closed on the rest. This is one that may have been turned into an official... Continue Reading →
Bush, Barney, Biden
After the two bombings in Kabul that killed over 100 people, including 13 Americans, Republicans started calling for President Joe Biden to resign. They didn't even wait until the next day. Nikki Haley, former South Carolina governor and Trump's ambassador to the United Nations, tweeted a rhetorical question and answered it herself in case nobody... Continue Reading →
Kabul’s Reapers
How bad is ISIS-K? The Taliban hates them. We spent the past two decades fighting the Taliban. The Taliban created a safe haven for al Qaida to train and conduct their terrorism. Al Qaida attacked the United States at least three times from the comfort and safety of the Taliban's Afghanistan. So when you hear... Continue Reading →
