Ann Telnaes combines her anguish over the crackdown on women’s rights under the reconstituted Afghan government with her fury over the assault on women’s rights and dignity by JD Vance and his misogynistic followers. Don’t say “It can’t happen here,” because it’s already happening here with the overturning of Roe v Wade, cutbacks to freedom […]
We’ll start with the easy one. Adam Zyglis explains the gist of the matter: Kansas City Chiefs placekicker Harrison Butker spoke at Benedictine College’s commencement and told graduates, among other things, that while women might get jobs, they would find true fulfillment not in the workplace but, like his wife, as homemakers and mothers. Particularly […]
I believe comics can be educational without being educational comics, and today’s Rubes (Creators) brought to mind a visit to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo when my boys were about three and seven. We had a family membership and visited often, and I think the boys learned something every time, but never so much as the […]
It would be too easy to say “The jokes tell themselves,” but, yes, Kayleigh MagaNinny really did explain to reporters yesterday that Dear Leader would wait until after the election results were in before deciding whether to accept them as valid.

You’re on the same level of thinking and paranoia as Donald Trump. Voting or endorsing is not a coup. It’s democratic. It’s politics. And […]
A couple of Sunday funnies to start things gently. Zits made me smile partially for the portrait of a young teen finding a way to show off powers beyond his true capacity, and partially for the memory of doing the same thing myself. Not quite this. But at about 12 or 13, I had a […]
Kal Kallaugher pretty much encapsulates the political situation, at least for the next few hours. A lot of good shutdown cartoons have become irrelevant, and there’s some question as to whether they will spring to life again in three weeks. I’m reminded of a bully who picked on a kid for a couple of weeks […]
There’s a wise saying that “Character is what you do when nobody’s looking,” and, for that reason, Jeff Stahler‘s cartoon stands out among all the other Brett Kavanaugh material. In the days since I opined that single-sex Catholic prep schools produce people who don’t understand the opposite sex, or sex at all, there have been […]
