How tacky can Republicans be? Well, being a party that's headed by the likes of Donald Trump, we may never know just how low they can go. We know they lie. We know they keep moving the goal post. We know they don't play with any fairness or principles. We know they're hypocrites. But yesterday,... Continue Reading →
Amy’s Cult
Amy Coney Barrett is a a judge for the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals based in Chicago and the current darling of the right-wing frenzy-feeding evangelical fucknut base. And if this is who they want, Donald Trump will give her to them. Hell, he was literally polling the crowd at one of his hate rallies... Continue Reading →
Republican Hypocrites

Supreme Gaydar
Right now, someone at Hobby Lobby is crying their homophobic balls off.

Let me put this so the fucknuts can comprehend it: Your boss can't fire you for being gay...so you can... Continue Reading →
Purging With Ginni
Donald Trump believes Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor should recuse themselves from all cases involving him. If that actually happened, he'd be winning all his cases, in the worst-case scenario, by a 4-3 vote. There's already a conservative majority on the bench. Most cases go 5-4 for conservatives. But, there are... Continue Reading →

Extreme Supremes
Take heart, America. The Supreme Court's decision, which they came out of their summer break to render, isn't as bad as you think. Oh, it's bad. It's a terrible, rotten, stupid, partisan decision delivered by five extreme supremes, but there's more context to it than the headlines are delivering. Since I'm a simple-minded political cartoonist... Continue Reading →
Disenfranchise Now, Take Names Later
The Supreme Court ruled today that courts have no business deciding gerrymandering cases. Irony. Writing the majority opinion, which was 5-4 and decided entirely by Republican-nominated justices, Roberts wrote that courts should stay out of politics. Keep in mind, they would not have won this decision if Mitch McConnell and the Republicans had not practiced... Continue Reading →
