It's always disturbing when members of Congress display ignorance of how legislation works. Republicans promise their voters that if elected, they'll rein in government spending. The first problem is, they don't know how it works. The second problem is, they're all liars and hypocrites. For most Republicans in Congress, funding the government is like a... Continue Reading →
Smoking In The Goons Room
It seems like the point of most Republican initiatives is to be an asshole. But then again, racists are assholes. Republicans believe stuff like dropping immigrants off without advance notice in sanctuary states is hilarious, and "owning the libs." But using human refugees as pawns for a political stunt is a dick move. And if... Continue Reading →
Wanker Investigations
Prince Harry fled to the United States and did the most American thing one can do, publish a tell-all. Harry says that he hopes to repair his relationship with his family in the future, but you don't do that by publishing a tell-all. I'm not taking sides. I care about Harry versus Willy about as...

Most Punchable Face In Washington
The most shocking thing about a congressman trying to punch Matt Gaetz in his ridiculous-looking face is that it's the first time it's ever happened...as far as we know. And I don't find it surprising that the attempted puncher of the most punchable face in Washington was one of Gaetz's fellow Republicans. Honestly, maybe Gaetz... Continue Reading →
Liars, Speakers, and Swearers
Yes, I stayed up all night to watch Kevin McCarthy finally become the Speaker of the House after 15 ballots. One thing that's for certain is that McCarthy enters the office as the weakest Speaker in House history. There are actually a lot of certainties with this, one being that the Goon Caucus or Chaos...

Poo-Flinging Caucus
Anytime I hear someone on a news show use an analogy or metaphor to describe an issue, that rules out my using the metaphor in a cartoon. During the Republican primaries in 2016, I may have been the only cartoonist in the country who didn't draw a clown car. Chris Wallace used the term about... Continue Reading →
Laptop Strikes Again
Yes, I dropped this joke in a blog two days ago, and I liked it. I was worried another cartoonist would steal it, but I posted it on a Friday and most cartoonists don't work weekends, especially holiday weekends. Do not expect the Republican-controlled House to accomplish much, if anything, for the next two years.... Continue Reading →
Read The Room
One thing that President Volodymyr Zelensky's visit to the White House and address to a joint session of Congress did yesterday was help the anti-democratic pro-Putin fascists expose themselves. Sure, they've been doing this for a while, but we got to see seven Republicans sit on their hands for the majority of Zelensky's speech yesterday.... Continue Reading →
Nancy’s Replacement
Nancy Pelosi stepped down from being the leader of House Democrats citing it's time for younger leadership, and she wasn't kidding. Yesterday, 52-year-old Hakeem Jeffries, a representative whose district includes parts of Brooklyn and Queens, became the party's new leader in the House. And if you think 52 is old, get off my blog. Not... Continue Reading →
Big Fat Nothings
Republicans campaigned for the midterms promising to fight crime, inflation, the recession, open borders, and high gas prices. For all that, they won the House with an itty bitty tiny minuscule majority. Naturally, with a tiny majority, the GOP is on notice and needs to be productive at governing and producing significant legislation in order... Continue Reading →
