Many presidents leave office in personal debt. James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, and Bill Clinton each left office poorer than when they entered. In Clinton's case, it was due to massive legal bills partly due to being investigated by a Special Counsel. Trump will also have high legal fees due to an investigation, but he'll probably...

Costa Rica Choo-Choo
I drew this cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. I draw two cartoons a month for The Star. This was published last Monday. There's a new one that was published Saturday and I'll post that one here next weekend. Lately, I haven't even discussed issues with the editors at the Star. I read up on... Continue Reading →
Shared Services
This was the first commissioned cartoon request that came in last week. The editor at The Highlands Current asked me to cover this issue. This is the second cartoon I've drawn for The Current. Both times, I read up on their local issue and submitted ideas to the editor. He's been easy to work with... Continue Reading →
Shelters In Venice
Warning: I'm about to do a cartoon/blog dump on you. I drew three cartoons on local subjects for three different publications the week before last, and I'm about to blog all three of them...in three separate blogs. When it rains it pours, as two of these were special requests while one is part of my... Continue Reading →
Heckuva Job, Trumpie
With Puerto Rico officially a disaster from Hurricane Maria, people starving and dying, going without electricity, money, water, food, and with a flash flood watch in effect, Donald Trump wants to assure all of us one thing. He's doing a great job. During the recovery effort for New Orleans and the Gulf Coast of Louisiana... Continue Reading →
Lock He Up
Donald Trump believes rules do not apply to him. It's not a belief he acquired after becoming president. He's had this affliction for his entire life. He doesn't believe debt applies to him. He doesn't believe he must be accountable to the truth to have credibility. He will accuse others of disrespecting veterans when he's... Continue Reading →
Goodbye To Hugh
This is a bonus cartoon for you today. Plus, I know the editors who subscribe to my syndication service will goo all over themselves when they see it. Editors LOVE cartoons about dead people. Hugh Hefner is subject to valid criticism of sexism and for being a peddler of pornography. I do think there was... Continue Reading →
First Responders
Donald Trump has been accused of not doing enough for Puerto Rico, and not even being that concerned about it. Now is all this criticism fair? He did tweet about it five times...you know, after he tweeted nearly 30 times about the NFL players kneeling during the National Anthem. Fox News will air an interview... Continue Reading →
Some Alabama Strange
The day before the runoff vote in the Alabama Republican primary for the U.S. Senate, Vice-President Mike Pence was campaigning for Luther Strange. Pence said, "I stand for Luther." Being that Pence refuses to be alone in a room with a woman who is not his wife, I cracked on social media that Pence would... Continue Reading →
Needs In Puerto Rico
Between last Wednesday, September 20, and last night (Monday, September 25), Donald Trump tweeted once about Hurricane Maria hitting Puerto Rico. It simply said, "We are with you and the people of Puerto Rico. Stay safe! #PRStrong." That was very nice of him, though it did come off as sort of an obligation before he... Continue Reading →
