Donald Trump Described as Liar, Charlatan, Ignorant and Ass

He Who Must Not Be Named

November 23, 2020 Olive America 0

I am seeing a growing number of media pundits refuse to use the political office title in front of Donald Trump’s name. This is a not-so-subtle acknowledgement that he’s un-deserving of the office he has defiled since he was accidentally elected in 2016. Add me to the list. […]

Going on Safari

February 28, 2021 0

Greetings progressives and cartoon lovers! I’m dropping this note to say I’m going on safari for a while … not actually traveling to Africa (Covid!) but metaphorically speaking. New adventures are calling and there’s only so much time in the day, week etc. I don’t know how long I’ll be traversing my symbolic Serengeti, but if you follow me on social media or subscribe to my Sunday newsletter you’ll be the first to know about […]

February 21, 2021 0

Enjoy this collection of more than three dozen political cartoons by my favorite cartoonists from my subscription service and ones I follow on Twitter who’ve given re-post permission.

Rush Limbaugh's Toxic Legacy in Cartoons

Decades of Cartoons Define Rush Limbaugh’s Toxic Legacy

February 19, 2021 2

This fascinating collection of nearly 50 Rush Limbaugh cartoons (from the archives of my subscription service going back to 2003) is part stroll down memory lane, but mostly a jarring recap of the controversial radio host’s impact on American culture and conservative politics. Limbaugh, the original bigoted conspiracy theorist, was the precursor to Donald Trump. I posited this week that the quick chorus of goodbye and good riddance that emerged upon news of Limbaugh’s death will […]

Limbaugh’s Goodbye and Good Riddance Will Be Trump’s One Day Too

February 19, 2021 1

If there’s any doubt about how contemporaries will view the life and impact of Donald Trump, look no farther than how voices large and small weighed in on news of Rush Limbaugh’s death this week. The conservative media blowhard lost his battle with cancer at age 70 on Wednesday, and within minutes love poured in from the extremist right, but was quickly doused by those who loathed the controversial radio host. Views expressed on social […]

Ted Cruz Ditches Texans for Cancun Vacation | Wolverpeen Cartoon by Billy Leake on Twitter @idrawfunstuff

Cruz Ditches Frozen Texans for Cancun Vacation – Is Now a Good Time To Break Out the Ted-With-Penis-Hands Cartoon?

February 18, 2021 1

This is a rhetorical question. Of course it’s the perfect time to feature this delightful (and layered) cartoon by illustrator Billy Leake that I’ve been saving for just such a moment. And I suspect cartoonists are hard at work today parodying Senator Ted Cruz’s (R-TX) escape to an all-inclusive Mexican resort while his constituents freeze and starve back home — which I’ll dutifully collect in my usual weekend roundup of the week’s political cartoons. I […]

Enjoy this Mitchy collection of a dozen political cartoons from the week and a few from the archives! All artists are from my subscription service or those I follow on Twitter who offer re-posting permission to this blog. […]

From The Big Lie to The Big Reveal – Three Big Impeachment Wins for Progressives

February 16, 2021 0

Now that everyone’s simmered down and weighing in on Saturday’s impeachment verdict, I’d like to point out that progressives are actually the true winners from last week’s political drama. Let’s take a pause from the whining and bitching to consider these three key gains as fallout from the trial. Trump has been neutered, rendered ineffectual from public life and politics that matter Yes the twice-impeached one-term ex and worst president of all time, Donald J. […]
