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.

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 →
Digging With Bannon
In the Mel Brooks film, Blazing Saddles, Gene Wilder's character explains the town people's racism to Cleavon Little with, "These are people of the land. The common clay of the New West. You know...morons." People like Steve Bannon are not morons. People like Steve Bannon take advantage of morons. Morons are the people who read... Continue Reading →
Demon Pillows
We have to stop treating these people like they're normal. Donald Trump is not a normal person. Donald Trump is a conspiracy theorist totally devoid of ethics and a fraud. And if someone else happens to come along pushing bogus conspiracy theories and talking fruit loops out of their ass, Donald Trump will support their... Continue Reading →

Nasty
I drew this Tuesday evening just as an illustration for my clients and not so much as a regularly-scheduled cartoon. Instead of posting it here first as usual, I posted it on social media. As it turned out, a lot of people liked it. I made some merch with it and several shirts, coffee mugs,... Continue Reading →
It’s Kamala
As Joe Biden so famously once said, "This is a big fucking deal." California Senator Kamala Harris is Joe Biden's running mate. Why is it a "big fucking deal?" She's black. She's Asian. She's a woman. This is the first time an Asian woman has been picked for the veep spot. It's the first time... Continue Reading →
Unconstitutional Slop
"We don’t want to continue to watch people signing executive orders because that was not what the Constitution and the brilliant designers of this incredible document had in mind. We need people that can make deals." That's a direct quote from Donald Trump in March 2016. In fact, all Republicans were critical of President Barack... Continue Reading →
