Nationally Syndicated Editorial Cartoonist
Journalists are used to taking hits. Politicians left and right, have always argued and fought with news organizations. There were bumper stickers decades ago that read, "Annoy the media. Vote Republican." The media even comes in with lower approval ratings than Congress. Most ordinary people have issues with their local newspapers, and you probably know... Continue Reading →
The stealing of a Supreme Court appointment from President Barack Obama should not have been allowed to happen, because Republicans are hypocrites and liars. Within the first 24 hours after the death of Justice Antonin Scalia, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he wouldn't allow a confirmation process for any Obama appointment. He kept the...

We've been so consumed with Donald Trump's racism toward Hispanics that we almost forgot his hatred toward Muslims. Yesterday, the Supreme Court, in another infamous 5-4 ruling, gave a victory to Trump's travel ban on people from specific Muslim nations. In doing so, they chose to ignore Trump's own words about banning Muslims. During his... Continue Reading →
Sometimes an angry conservative reader will tell me that I'm adding to the discourse in American politics and society. My response to that is always, yep. It's what political cartoonists do, even the ones you agree with. It's not new. Thomas Nast did it back in the 1800s. But we don't create it. We're just... Continue Reading →
This cartoon was originally published in The Costa Rica Star June 15, 2018. I am no soccer hooligan because I don't know much of anything about soccer or futbol. But I was aware that Costa Rica made an amazing run through the World Cup in 2014 reaching the quarterfinals. They were one of the last... Continue Reading →
Even before the major reasons why Donald Trump should not have been seriously considered for the presidency, I had a few that may appear petty but point to larger problems with the guy. Trump's inexperience, stupidity, sexism, and racism are all great reasons why the man shouldn't have gotten farther than the rent-is-too-damn-high guy. But... Continue Reading →
Is there a race to the bottom among Trump, members of his administration, his family, and supporters? It sure seems that way. Attorney General Jeff Sessions was giddy a few weeks ago when he announced the child-separation and traumatization policy of the Trump administration. Last week, he quoted Bible verses, that were also used in... Continue Reading →
We've had tension and threats of war with North Korea since that nation was created at the start of the Korean War. Donald Trump took it to new heights when he started calling his fellow narcissist childish names like "Little Rocket Man" and threatened "fire and fury," and Kim Jong Un returning the favor with...

Donald Trump wants a "Space Force," and for it to be a new branch of the military. In his proclamation about his space jam, he described how it would be its own branch, he used the term "separate but equal." That was a very bizarre and awkward phrase to inject into his speech as it's... Continue Reading →
A recent Quinnipiac Poll states 65% of American voters oppose the Trump policy of separating migrant children from their parents. The same study finds 55% of Republican voters are heartless, inhumane, unsympathetic, troglodyte, subhuman mongrels you don't want to be stuck in an elevator with. And there you have it. The majority of Trump supporters... Continue Reading →
