Donald Trump panders to a very racist, stupid base of supporters. It's why he makes racist comments while being reluctant to criticize racists. When tiki-torch Nazis marched in Charlottesville, it would have been very presidential to criticize Nazis. For Donald Trump, his first instinct was to attack the people protesting Nazis. If you support Donald... Continue Reading →
Ruh-Roh Rudy
While on his "rogue" tour of Europe seeking conspiracy theories to aid Trump's reelection and impeachment defense, Rudy Giuliani blew the "no quid pro quo" defense out of the water. From Ukraine, where he refused to admit he was after admitting he was there, Rudy tweeted, "The conversation about corruption in Ukraine was based on... Continue Reading →
Fun With Faux Outrage
The party that gave us baby jails is outraged that a liberal college professor would inject Trump's youngest child, Barron, into politics and make jokes at his expense. Except the college professor didn't do that. Constitutional law expert Pamela Karlan was testifying before the House Judiciary Committee to give her opinions on impeachment. While answering...

Tickle Me NATO
Do you remember Trump's campaign promise to make the world laugh at us to the point that he'd leave NATO summits early in a snit? Me neither. In fact, Trump claimed that under Obama, the world was laughing at us and his presidency would end it. And then...the world literally laughed in his face. During... Continue Reading →

Devin Nunes sued a cow. Actually, he sued a fictional cow over a satirical Twitter account named "Devin Nunes' Cow." He's also sued Twitter over an... Continue Reading →
Putin’s Minions

But if you've seen him on news shows recently talking about foreign governments meddling in the 2016 presidential election, you'll think he's very confused. A week ago, he went... Continue Reading →
Weather The Stupid
It's not just the majority of scientists who believe in climate change. It's a massive majority. According to NASA, "97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities." Additionally, most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing... Continue Reading →
Trump Rocky

I saw someone else make the argument of just how weird this is by comparing it to if Hillary Clinton had done it. Can you imagine the extent to which Republicans would have lost... Continue Reading →
Roughing It, Volume 23
Here are a few roughs from the past week. Leave a comment and tell me which ones you liked. I think I drew all of these in a Washington, DC hotel. I did something very similar to this for CNN. I drew this one for my clients but put a lot more into it. I... Continue Reading →
Phone Home
After 37 years, E.T. and Elliott were reunited in an Xfinity commercial. Everyone's talking about it but no one really knows what product was being sold. In the commercial, Elliott tell E.T. that a lot has changed. Boy, have they. E.T. didn't face a welcoming United States government in his first visit in 1982. He'd... Continue Reading →
