Nationally Syndicated Editorial Cartoonist
I thought Trump was supposed to be a great deal maker. After Washington, D.C. put a huge price tag on allowing him to parade tanks down Pennsylvania Avenue, you'd have thought he would have negotiated them down. At the very least he could have got Mexico to pay for it. Trump, who got five deferments... Continue Reading →
Paul Conrad, perhaps the greatest political cartoonist in American history, was furious when he found out he wasn't on Nixon's infamous enemies list. It turned out he actually was when the second list was revealed. A second list? Nixon hated a lot of people. Conrad later said being included was his greatest distinction, and he...

I really am not a fan of obituary cartoons to begin with, but I especially despise Heaven and Pearly Gates cartoons, even when I draw them. So, if I can work around it I will. I love Aretha. She was amazing and definitely the queen of soul. To me, she may have been the queen... Continue Reading →
Your support in the form of donations is appreciated. I am fully independent as I’m not employed by a newspaper or with a major syndicate (leaving one to be independent). It does take a lot of work to provide you with cartoons, columns, and videos almost every day (more than any other political cartoonist), and... Continue Reading →
Peter Strzok was an FBI agent with 22 years experience who had investigated Russian spies, defense officials accused of selling secrets to China and other assorted cases of extreme importance. He was also the agent in charge of investigating Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server while she was Secretary of State and the Russia... Continue Reading →
Donald Trump called Steve Bannon "sloppy" and says he "lost his mind." He accused Michael Cohen of engaging in illegal activity while his lawyer says he's a liar. Now, he calls Omarosa Manigault Newman "wacky," a "lowlife," and just this morning, a "dog." What do these three people have in common? They all worked for Donald... Continue Reading →
This Thursday, over 70 newspapers (so far) will run coordinated editorials defending a free press from Donald Trump's attacks that the media is the "enemy of the American people" and "fake news." It's being coordinated by The Boston Globe. I probably have several newspaper clients participating in this, but one that's definitely on board is... Continue Reading →
I don't believe Donald Trump's stupid idea of a new military branch called "Space Force" is a serious initiative. First, it's just going to do what the Air Force Space Command, which has 36,000 personnel and a budget this year of $8.5 billion, already does. Creating a new branch is creating a new fiefdom competing... Continue Reading →
This cartoon originally ran in The Costa Rica Star on August 3, 2018. The violence in Nicaragua, which isn't a civil war, is sending thousands of refugees into Costa Rica. Costa Rica is accepting them. At the beginning of the month, over 23,000 refugees from Nicaragua were seeking asylum in Costa Rica. They're not being... Continue Reading →
If you make a statement and David Duke gives you a supportive shout-out, you might wanna go back and rethink your position. I don't care if you say, "it looks like rain," and Duke goes, "yeah." You would wonder if there was a racist wolf whistle in "it looks like rain." Laura Ingraham used her... Continue Reading →
