Roughing It, Volume 20


I drew a LOT of roughs for last Sunday's CNN Opinion newsletter. The newsletter covers several subjects in the news. It's often looking toward the week ahead. The lead is the first subject and we aim to have my cartoon covering that. I start by throwing ideas at them but usually, we're not sure what... Continue Reading →

A Junior Sacrifice


A few years ago, a special interest group asked me to draw a series of cartoons for them on climate change. They didn't specify where they stood on climate change in their initial feeler, but I got the idea they wanted me to provide cartoons denying it. They didn't even specify what they would do...

Grifter Strikes Again


During the 2016 presidential campaign, a poll showed that between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, respondents believed Clinton was less honest than Trump. Believing in something doesn't make it true. If I asked you to list lies told by Clinton, maybe you could name three. If you visit Politifact's page listing false statements told by...

Imagine you're sitting on a jury and you really want the defendant to be innocent. So, when a witness gives a damaging testimony, you just decide you're not going to listen to him. That's Lindsey Graham. Lindsey Graham said if there was evidence or testimony spelling out there was a quid pro quo, then it... Continue Reading →

Blue Moon Of Kentucky


The night before the election in Kentucky, Donald Trump held one of his hate rallies in that state in support of Governor Matt Bevin and said, "If you lose, they will say Trump suffered the greatest defeat in the history of the world. You can’t let that happen to me, and you can’t let that... Continue Reading →

Cross Hairs For Whistleblower


It's Taco and Bonus Toon Tuesday here at Claytoonz Central. But since I ate all the tacos Amanda made for me, you get the cartoon. I sketched this idea out a few weeks ago and even shared it in one of my posts showing you rough sketches. Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't reveal a... Continue Reading →

Nats Play Ball


It's not that I'm disappointed by the Washington Nationals. I'm disgusted. I have never lived in an area of a major league baseball team winning the World Series. I'm a Cubs fan, but I do like the Nats. I have enjoyed their run to the World Series. While the Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup... Continue Reading →

Florida Buttman


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. Is Donald Trump moving his permanent residence to Florida because of taxes, criminal investigations, or because New York hurt his feelings? Maybe a combination of all three. There are also the logistics of a... Continue Reading →

Brains Don’t Work On The Girl


The Trump kids, much like their father, are seriously out of their element when it comes to politics and well...anything that requires comprehension, consistency, and honesty. Donald Trump's full-grown trust-fund babies are at their best when they ignore what's actually going on, like when Jr. and Eric tweeted denials that their father was booed at... Continue Reading →

Roughing It, Volume 19


Here are the roughs I submitted for last week's CNN Opinion newsletter. This was the cartoon we went with. I changed it up a bit for the final version. Rich, my editor, said, "you just had to include a "covfefe," didn't you?" Yes, I did. I threw that in for the final version, but I... Continue Reading →
