Movements work better when they're built from the ground up, not from the top down. While the Women's March set records worldwide in 2017, the enthusiasm has died down for today's marches. While enthusiasm can't be sustained forever for everything, the leadership of the Women's March has done their best to destroy it for 2019.... Continue Reading →
Cork In The Union
Cartoonist note: If you heard the analogy in this cartoon before, it's because I tweeted and facebooked it yesterday. In case you haven't noticed by now, Donald Trump is a man-baby who doesn't just need approval (why doesn't The New York Times like him?), he craves adoration. Every cabinet meeting begins with genuflection and the entire room... Continue Reading →
A Manly Cartoon
Gillette, a company that makes razors and other grooming products released an ad stating they "believe in the best in men." Right-wing men, who love to project by calling liberals "snowflakes," have responded by having hissy fits and showing the worst in men. The two-minute commercial talks about "toxic masculinity" and recognizes its own past... Continue Reading →
Boyz In The Hoods
Republicans are finally punishing one of their own for racism. House Republicans, now in the minority, have removed Iowa Congressman Steve King from all committees for making racist comments. This is a huge loss for Iowa, as it's an agricultural state without a representative on the Agriculture Committee. After being sent back to the House... Continue Reading →
Fast Food Traitor
I drew this because too many people asked me to do a hamburger cartoon. In case you didn't watch the news, Putin, I mean Trump hosted Clemson University's football team for winning the national championship. Since there's a government shutdown and the staff of the White House is depleted, Trump served fast food. There were... Continue Reading →

According to the dictionary, a cult is a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object and a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing. It's a cult of personality surrounding a leader. It's less about policy and more about adoration. It's also less about facts and... Continue Reading →
Stressing RBG
Writer Morgan Jerkins recently wrote for The Washington Post that obsessing over the health of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is bad for democracy, bad for her, and bad for us. I totally agree with that, but what is also bad for us is the presidency of one Donald J. Trump. After having a... Continue Reading →
Sharia Republicans
The Republican Party has been struggling to attract members and voters who aren't white or Christian. Well, they're not actually struggling because they're not really trying to attract people who aren't white Christians. Or if they are, they're doing a very bad job with it. Iowa Republican congressman Steve King has a history of racism.... Continue Reading →
Costa Rica Life Insurance
This cartoon was first published January 4, 2019, in The Costa Rica Star. Central America has a bad reputation for being an unsafe place to visit or even live. Costa Rica does not. The nation doesn't even have an army and millions of tourists from the United States, Canada, and Asia visit every year. I... Continue Reading →
Lawyering Up
For the past two years, Trump sycophants have been barking "what evidence is there that Trump colluded with Russia"? It's as if Robert Mueller is supposed to call each and every one of them directly each time he discovers something new. Never mind that there is evidence that Trump worked with Russia, such as calling... Continue Reading →
