Tomorrow is World Press Freedom Day, and, as Ann Telnaes notes, it couldn’t come a moment too soon, a point made at Saturday’s WHCA Dinner but largely lost in coverage of Joe Biden and Trevor Noah’s remarks. Much as I despise the event, both Biden and Noah delivered some great material, not, perhaps, as incisive […]
Morten Morland offers an Easter-themed bit of Moskva Mockery. Most of today’s Easter cartoons, as with most mandatory holiday cartoons, seem unremarkable, though his detailed style adds some interest here. It’s not Beatrix Potter’s watercolors; more like Uncle Wiggly, but it echoes traditional gentle bunny depiction, with the addition of a sly expression that couldn’t […]
We’ll start out with some good news, via Steve Brodner: Not only did the Kellogg’s workers ratify a new contract, but it seems like they got pretty much what they wanted and that management — who had threatened to replace them with scabs — got pretty much not a whole lot except several months of […]
This xkcd (Ind) illustrates a lesson I learned a few decades ago, when I attempted to raise money at Denver’s St. Patrick’s Day parade for a non-sectarian job training center in Belfast that was making inroads in defusing the violence there. All I asked for was a quarter. A quarter from one-twentieth, even one-fortieth, of […]
Adam Zyglis offers a good jumping off place this morning, since, from here, we can go in a couple of different directions. The first is, of course, the arrogance of wealth combined with a sociopathic lack of empathy, and we don’t have to go back to Marie Antoinette to find a parallel. Though, to […]
Bob Gorrell accuses Democrats of a double standard when it comes to truth and accuracy. I can’t agree. I’m not a Biden supporter, but his gaffes tend to be immaterial. And let’s remember that it was the Amazon-owned Libtard Fake News Washington Post that examined his story of the soldier and the medal and exposed […]
Clay Bennett has a refreshingly neutral commentary on the number of Democratic candidates lining up for the 2020 Presidential race. It’s a lot of lanes, but at least the groundskeeper is keeping them even, which is more than I’m seeing elsewhere, in both cartoons and social media commentary. Someone was trashing Kristen Gillibrand on Twitter, […]
I hadn’t pulled Ed Hall‘s cartoon out of the pile, despite having seen Dear Leader’s tweet in which he, yes, invoked “global warming” in the face of the Polar Vortex. First of all, I hated that movie. I don’t see much difference between the disabled person who teaches us all a lesson about life and […]
