Let's check out some roughs, Kids. And I drew a bunch of them. This was the idea CNN selected for last week's newsletter. I liked the way it turned out and I had a lot of fun with putting stuff on the signs. The only thing I missed with this was drawing these signs sticking... Continue Reading →
Kenosha
Sometimes I'll draw a cartoon knowing full well most of my clients won't run it. OK, it's more than sometimes I do that. But sometimes, you have to say something others are afraid to. Usually, when a cop does something that outrageous America and the police have to actually accept what that cop did was... Continue Reading →
Better Off?
Before this week's Republican National Convention, Donald Trump complained that the Democratic National Convention was "dark and gloomy." Of course, we knew the DNC was a convention based more in reality that provided more facts. Donald Trump is a shitty president (sic) and a horrible and vile human being so when you talk about the...

The House That Trump Built
Republicans don't comprehend well. You can scream as loud as the banshee Don Jr is dating and they still wouldn't get it. For the past three nights, Republicans have used their convention to tell us Donald Trump is not a racist while not once showing any support for Black Lives Matter. Last night, not one...

Kenosha Commotion
With a cult following as stupid, racist, and reactionary as Donald Trump's, it's very dangerous when he encourages division and violence. Donald Trump telegraphs his people to incite violence and other times, he's not saying it clear. Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old black man was shot in the back at least seven times by the Kenosha,...

Diverse Convention
On the first night of the Republican convention, the GOP rolled out minority speakers, you know...whenever a Trump wasn't speaking. There was Tim Scott, Nikki Haley, a black guy here, a Cuban there, and a Puerto Rican who is a true Trumpista because she doesn't know Puerto Rico is a part of the United States....

Conways Fall Well
When I see arguments between liberals, or even Republicans, and Trump supporters, it's not even about differences of opinion. It used to be that way and everyone could agree to disagree. The marriage of James Carville and Mary Matalin is one of political opposites as he worked on the 1992 Bill Clinton campaign and she... Continue Reading →
Family Testimonials
Full disclosure. I too have sisters (two) who don't like me and will say all sorts of nasty things. Things like, "entitled," "selfish," "spoiled," "wasted my talent," etc. But in my defense, I'm not the only person in the family they refuse to talk to (in my case, I choose not to talk to them),...

Trump’s Con
Here’s your cartoon for this week’s CNN Opinion newsletter. Please sign up to get these in your inbox every Sunday. As I wrote in my blog the other day, you folks can keep up with the convention by watching the highlights/lowlights afterward. Me? I have to actually watch this shitshow. I should have become a rock star... Continue Reading →
Roughing It, Volume 60
It's time for a big batch of roughs, kids. Here's a creative note for you. All of these were drawn in Mississippi on my ex-wife's and her husband's dining room table. I still have bug bites on my feet and legs. I am never living in the deep south again. When I write and draw,... Continue Reading →
