American Beaches


The summit in Singapore between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un was truly historic. It was the first time an American president legitimized the dictatorial regime of North Korea. Atlantic writer Jeffrey Goldberg has been searching out the Trump doctrine on foreign policy. After talking to administration officials over several weeks, he finally got one... Continue Reading →

Ugly American Baby


Donald Trump attended the G7 Summit against his will. He didn't want to go, probably because he had spent the week insulting our allies while lobbying for Vladimir Putin. Trump arrived late to the summit and he left early. He agreed to a communiqué (which is a big word for Trump) by the allies but... Continue Reading →

Crate And Peril


Senator Jeff Merkley, a Democrat from Oregon, visited a detention center in Texas last week and described the facility. He said, "What you have is cyclone fencing and fence posts that look like cages. They look like the way you would construct a dog kennel." Jeff Sessions' Justice Department hit back, saying they don't employ the use... Continue Reading →

Costa Rica’s Daily Bureaucracy


This cartoon was drawn for and published in The Costa Rica Star, May 25, 2018. I should have posted it last week, but I was lazy. You know there's bureaucracy in the United States, but we're not the only one. There are a lot of hoops you would need to jump through for a construction... Continue Reading →

EPA Director Scott Pruitt's defense that he used his position to unethically seek a Chick-fil-A franchise for his wife was that he really likes fried chicken. That's like defending yourself of taking kickbacks by saying you really like money. On Thursday at an event at FEMA HQ, Donald Trump said to Pruitt, "EPA is doing... Continue Reading →

Foolish For Dear Leader


Donald Trump says he can pardon himself, but poses the supposedly hypothetical question; why would he when he's innocent? Another question is; if you're innocent, why are you talking about pardoning yourself? I can disagree with Trump about the president having the legal power to pardon himself, and you could rightfully point out that I'm... Continue Reading →

Hater Cakes


A baker in Colorado is so homophobic that he refuses to take money from gay couples. He was sued by a couple after refusing to bake them a cake, citing his religious beliefs as justification for denying their business. The couple sued over the discrimination. The state's civil rights commission ruled against the baker. The... Continue Reading →
