SOTU STFU


Donald Trump is not a history buff. But "buff" is not a word usually associated with Trump. If Trump even had a cursory knowledge of history, or at least of the office he holds, he'd stop channeling Richard Nixon. Out of the 44 presidents before him, Nixon is the one president Trump should bone up... Continue Reading →

Dirty Trickster Lives Matter


Conservatives are livid and up in arms over the way Roger Stone was arrested last month. According to Stone, 29 FBI agents and U.S. Marshals were used in the pre-dawn raid to arrest Trump's longtime adviser last month in Miami. Since this was conducted during Trump's government shutdown, several of the agents volunteered for the... Continue Reading →

Snoozer Bowl


Wow! Super Bowl LIII. The Rams! The Patriots! Tom Brady! Bill Belichick! Jared Goff! Maroon Five! How exciting...not so much. While the game and halftime show bored everyone, and the MVP went to the Patriots' Julian Edelman, and shockingly not to a punter, the stars of the show were Harrison Ford and his dog. Honorable...

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid


I learned something yesterday during Virginia Governor Ralph Northam's press conference. It's very hard to get shoe polish off your face. Of course, why would I have known that? I've never felt the inspiration to put shoe polish on my face. I know that if you draw a mustache on someone's face with a Sharpie,... Continue Reading →

Uber Costa Rica


This cartoon first ran in The Costa Rica Star, January 25, 2019. Uber is not legal in Costa Rica due to the lobbying from the nation's taxi service. Now, Uber may be granted the right to operate in the nation, that is if they pay some exorbitant fines to the country. How exorbitant? $13 million.... Continue Reading →

Governor Blackface


One of the biggest criticisms Ralph Northam received while running for the governorship of Virginia was that he's too boring. Problem solved. Perhaps he should have been a little more boring during his med school days. Late Friday afternoon, a photo emerged from a 1984 medical school yearbook that shows a man in blackface and...

Holiday Power Grab


Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has no shame. The man isn't afraid of exhibiting blatant hypocrisy. He's not ashamed of stealing power. He's not ashamed of preventing bills from being voted on. He's not ashamed of changing the rules to put the least acceptable people on the Supreme Court. He's not ashamed of stealing a...

Just Another Weather Cartoon


I'll be honest. I used to do these kinds of crappy cartoons. In my case, it was a compromise with my editor. I'd do the anti-climate change cartoon and go home early, and the next day he had to leave me alone to do whatever I wanted. Of course, he didn't know that but I... Continue Reading →

Starbucks Spoiler


Howard Schultz is thinking about running for president as an independent. Who? Schultz is the answer no one is looking for. He's also the former CEO of Starbucks, which also pisses people off. A lot of people have strong opinions about Starbucks. It's too watery. It's too corporate. It's too liberal. What's the difference between... Continue Reading →

Canned Hog


The only thing that's keeping the Trump era from being even worse is that we're not waking up every morning to Sonny and Cher's "I Got You, Babe." The Trump administration is like the movie Groundhog Day. Each day brings a repeat of something that would destroy any other politician in a more saner era,... Continue Reading →
