    • This political cartoon is drawn in a wildly comic and exaggerated style. It’s set outside in a filthy pond at the Rock Creek area near Washington DC. RFK Jr. is bathing in the pond and says, “My advice is that children don’t take the Covid vax.” A doctor stands next to the pond holding a clipboard labeled “CDC.” The doctor says, “Our advice is that nobody should listen to RFK Jr.’s health advice.” The pond is filled many odd items, including underwear, a snake, syringes, a rat, a slice of pizza, ducks, and a fish with three eyes.
