As Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky virtually addressed Congress today, I wondered, "What did they do with Lauren Boebert, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Louie Gohmert, and Madison Cawthorn? For that matter, how dare any member of the Republican Party attend who had refused to impeach Donald Trump for his attempt to extort the Ukrainian president.... Continue Reading →
Republican Tip Lines
Virginia's new Republican sweater vest governor (sic), Glenn Youngkin, has set up a "tip line" for parents to snitch on public school teachers who are promoting "divisive practices" or enforcing mask mandates. This tip line follows the governor's (sic) very first executive order banning any history being taught that makes white people feel bad. The... Continue Reading →
Trumpkin For Governor
Glenn Youngkin is a businessman running for governor of Virginia as a moderate and rational Republican, which doesn't exist anymore. But the thing is, he didn't just run as an extremist in the primary. He ran as a MAGA Kool-Aid-swilling Trump cultist. And he wasn't even the the biggest Trumper among the GOP candidates. There...

GOP Stampede
Now that Texas has effectively banned abortion, expect other yee-haw states to follow suit sooner than later. You might think some of these states will pause to see what the Supreme Court does in its next session, but the court already weighed in to say they're not weighing in. Plus, Republicans are too giddy to... Continue Reading →
Treason For Tucker
When Congress investigated the September 11, 2001 attack on our nation, the investigative committee did not include any members of al Qaida. When Congress has investigated the mafia, I don't believe any of those committees included mobsters. When the GOP held investigation after investigation into the Benghazi attack that killed four Americans, I don't believe... Continue Reading →
Orbiting Moons and Asteroids
Republican Louie Gohmert is a lunatic, but he's not alone. Gohmert recently caused a lot of people to laugh and mock him when he asked the nation's forestry service if we can combat climate change by changing the orbits of the Earth and the Moon. His supporters are saying he was just joking and using... Continue Reading →
Republicans Heart Terrorists
Republicans do not want to investigate the January 6 terrorist attack on the Capitol. Why? Because it'll anger Donald Trump. They serve Trump, not you, silly Billy. The attack was by white nationalists. That's the GOP base. They tried to overturn an election. If this crowd was black or antifa, the GOP would be all... Continue Reading →
Hunka-Hunka Recount
Here’s your cartoon for this week’s CNN Opinion newsletter. Please sign up to get these in your inbox every Sunday. I did something really stupid the other day, but it worked out. I sent a few ideas earlier than usual to my CNN editor last Friday. We can work pretty late, so when he called me at... Continue Reading →
The Walking MAGAts
Today, supposedly, Congress will launch the National Commission to Investigate the January 6 Attack on the Capitol Complex Act at a hearing. House Homeland Security Chairman Bennie G. Thompson and Rep. John Katko, the committee's senior Republican have agreed to a bipartisan bill, supposedly, modeled after the commission that investigated 9/11, to investigate the attack...

Gassy Republicans
While chomping on some two dollar street tacos last night at a nearby Mexican restaurant, I was thinking about the gas shortage. It's the thing everyone is talking. A couple of guys near me and the bartender were talking about how bad the lines were getting here locally, despite the fact there really isn't a... Continue Reading →
