Hey, kids. It's time to check out some more roughs. It was another light week with only about a dozen or so to check out. For me, that's a light week. This is the idea CNN picked for the Sunday newsletter last week. And it turned into this. A lot of people told me they... Continue Reading →
When I did a cartoon last week on Republicans and MAGAts now loving socialism, I asked the question, "How will they defend it?" There are a lot of Republicans, libertarians, and Trump supporters who are mouthing that they're not happy with the $2 trillion stimulus to float the economy through the coronavirus pandemic. I'm sure... Continue Reading →
Maybe Donald Trump should wait until every state has the ventilators they need before he starts prognosticating on what date (selected because it's "beautiful") we can all return to normal lives. Only "normal" in the sense we could go outside, work, school, and get within six feet of other human beings. Not "normal" in the... Continue Reading →
In case you haven't noticed by now, Republicans are in a contest with each other to see who can be the vilest, most despicable, horrid person in their party. Keep in mind, this is the party that lied and said President Obama was creating death panels as part of Obamacare. The story here, whose biggest... Continue Reading →
Can you believe Donald Trump's approval rating has actually risen since the start of the pandemic and approval of the way he's handled it is around 60%? Yes, this despite the fact he made the government less prepared for a crisis of this sort, denied it was happening, lied repeatedly about it, called it a... Continue Reading →
You know we're in unusual times when Donald Trump is giving leeway to an appointee to disagree with him. Not only does Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (since 1984), publicly disagree with Trump on several matters, he corrects him when he says something that's not accurate. Fauci... Continue Reading →
In case you don't know, Rand Paul has tested positive for the coronavirus. He's the first senator to test positive and most likely, not the last. Especially since Rand Paul was the first. While waiting for his test results, Rand worked out in the Senate gym and swam in the Senate pool. He also met... Continue Reading →
Insider trading is trading in the stock market on confidential information. It's not just frowned upon or a no-no. It's illegal. It's especially worse when done by elected officials because they're supposed to use classified information to help the country, not help themselves. Several senators are being accused of insider trading after dumping stocks before... Continue Reading →
Here’s your cartoon for CNN’s weekly newsletter, Provoke/Persuade. Please sign up to get these in your inbox every Sunday for the rest of your life. It really boggled my mind Saturday that Mike Pence was on a podium with the President (sic) of the United States, along with a dozen other people, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, sharing a microphone,...

I didn't draw as many roughs last week as usual. But out of the small number, five of them became fully-grown cartoons. Let's check them out. This was not my favorite cartoon from this collection, but it was my favorite for the CNN Opinion newsletter. My editor, Rich, wrote a brilliant and wonderful column and... Continue Reading →
