President Joe Biden delivered his first State of the Union speech last night, and he delivered. Last night, we saw leadership from an American president. It was refreshing. President Biden came out strong in his first SOTU address, standing with Ukraine and condemning Vladimir Putin's tyranny. A heartwarming moment was when he pointed out one... Continue Reading →
Riding With Zelensky
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky went from being an actor, the voice of the Ukraine version of Paddington Bear, and the winner of the first season of Ukraine's Dancing with the Stars (that's a thing?) to being the man inspiring his nation to fight. A video clip of Zelensky standing in the middle of the streets... Continue Reading →
Radical SCOTUS
Here’s your cartoon for this week’s CNN Opinion newsletter. Please sign up to get these in your inbox every Sunday. My editor asked for a cartoon on President Biden's nominee to the Supreme Court, Ketanji Jackson Brown.

Roughs, Volume 126
Holy crap, we have a bunch of roughs this week. Let's get to it. I really wanted to draw this cartoon, but I had just done a Trump-toilet cartoon that went gangbusters (I mean, a lot of people liked it), so I felt this would have paled in comparison or had appeared to be riding...

Puppet Propaganda
We talked about this a few days ago, but let's talk about it again. Donald Trump and others are claiming the reason Vladimir Putin didn't invade Ukraine during Trump's presidency (sic) is that Donald Trump was tough on Putin. Putin was afraid of Trump. Putin respected Trump. This is the most ridiculous babbling brain-dead horseshit... Continue Reading →

In the United States, there are three branches of government. In case you're a Republican, like Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville, those branches are congress, courts, and the presidency. They...

Don’t Mind Vlad
I'm sure every political cartoonist has used the Dr. Strangelove concept at least once in his or her career. Hell, I've used it several times and I've never even seen the movie. After the first time I used the concept and someone mentioned Dr. Strangelove, my response was, "the doctor what now?" And even though... Continue Reading →
Savvy Stable
Tucker Carlson asked himself, rhetorically, on his show this week, "Why do I hate Putin?" His whole deal is that we shouldn't hate Vladimir Putin or support Ukraine during this war. Yes, it's a war now. Vladimir Putin has invaded Ukraine. Tucker claims Ukraine isn't a sovereign nation and the entire situation is over a... Continue Reading →
Social Putin
I'm trying to sign up on Truth Social to see if I can get banned on my very first day. I want to post this cartoon. The problem is, I'm having trouble having a very first day. You know how you get a confirmation email when you sign up for something new, right? Yeah, I'm... Continue Reading →
