Nationally Syndicated Editorial Cartoonist
One of my Trump cultist troglodyte Facebook friends (this one's not related to me) who is really big about defending racists, deflection, and false equivalency posted yesterday about Democrats politicizing mass shootings. How dare politicians try to create legislation that'll stop murders. What do they think we sent them to Washington for anyway? To be... Continue Reading →
The cartoon I published this morning criticizing white terrorism was initially blocked by Facebook, citing it violated their "community standards." I thought, if that violates your standards then you need to reevaluate your standards. I submitted it for a review and Facebook unblocked and apologized for the ban.

While talking about a shooting at a Kroger in Kentucky where a white man killed two people, both black, Lemon said, "The... Continue Reading →
Journalists are used to taking hits. Politicians left and right, have always argued and fought with news organizations. There were bumper stickers decades ago that read, "Annoy the media. Vote Republican." The media even comes in with lower approval ratings than Congress. Most ordinary people have issues with their local newspapers, and you probably know... Continue Reading →
Another mass shooting at another school. The president is tired of making speeches about these things. I'm getting tired of drawing cartoons about it but I'm not a politician who will ignore it, or offer condolences and not action.
