Greg Abbot's Texas government has started putting what it calls "floating marine barriers" in the Rio Grande River on the Texas/Mexico border in order to stop "illegal immigrants" from entering the country. Again, can we dismiss the term "illegal" to describe human beings? How are they "illegal" before they even get here? It's racist and... Continue Reading →

Happy Memorial Day. Sorry, I did not draw a Memorial Day cartoon this year. Most of my clients also subscribe to other cartoon services that'll give them teary Memorial Day cartoons and the ones that only subscribe to me don't want 'em. I prefer to draw cartoons with teeth. And Hell, I should not even... Continue Reading →
Immigrant Gun Control
After a mass shooter killed five people last week in Cleveland, Texas, Republicans were quick to point out that the shooter might be an undocumented migrant. Texas Governor Greg Abbott went so far as to call all five victims "illegal immigrants," and continued with his political stunt of deporting migrants to Chicago a few days... Continue Reading →
Thoughts and Prayers and Deportations
The thing about most Republicans is that they're vile, despicable, horrible, and deplorable creatures whose first thought when something terrible happens is to say something terrible. But what sort of compassion would you expect from someone who uses the most vulnerable people in our society as political props? Francisco Oropesa murdered five of his neighbors... Continue Reading →
Hold My Trans Beer
Right after Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender actress, activist, and social media influencer (that means I don't know who she is because I'm old) posted a video on Instagram announcing a partnership with Bud Light, Kid Rock went on a tangent, shot a bunch of beer cans, then went on his "No Snowflakes tour." Yes, I... Continue Reading →
Standing Your Racist Ground
Usually, when a governor issues a pardon, it's because new information came to light like testimony was withheld or DNA evidence was discovered, but not because Tucker Carlson said so. In Texas, racist Governor Greg Abbott said he is going to pardon a man convicted of killing a Black Lives Matter protester. He said this... Continue Reading →
Happy Birthday, Jesus
Another thing I find revolting about Republicans is that they spend the entire year being as vile as humanly possible, and then on Christmas and Easter, they're all about Jesus. I scrolled through Twitter yesterday and saw posts from the most despicable, like Lauren Boebert, Ted Cruz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Matt Gaetz praising Jesus... Continue Reading →
Texas Cowards
A few years ago I was at a wedding here in Virginia, and the bride's mom had flown in for it from Texas. After the vows were exchanged and everyone was dancing and eating cake, the bride's mom was talking about Texas. Everything that came out of her mouth was about how Texas was the...

Coyote Ugly
Texas Governor Greg Abbott is busing migrants to New York City and Washington, D.C. These migrants entered the United States through the Texas border with Mexico. Greg Abbott is blaming President Joe Biden for "open borders" despite the fact that until recently, Biden's border policy was the same as Donald Trump's. Abbott has sent over... Continue Reading →
Open Border
There are a lot of fallacies that persist in this country, mostly due to Republican messaging. Republicans love spreading lies like Critical Race Theory is being taught, liberals are groomers, there's something on Hunter Biden's laptop, election fraud stole the election from Trump, the January 6 attack on the Capitol building was a protest, Tucker...
