published 29 August 2025

In this cartoon, a man in a suit with an &ldquo;NRA&rdquo; button points to a screen that displays a large submarine-style sandwich. He says, &ldquo;We propose an assault sandwich ban.&rdquo;

This cartoon depicts a man, woman, and child looking at a slavery exhibit at the Smithsonian. The exhibit includes ankle cuffs, a whip, a hangman&rsquo;s noose, an illustration of a slave boat, a barrel filled with cotton and a stockade.. The man says, &ldquo;According to this the south didn&rsquo;t have slaves, just 4 million unpaid interns.&rdquo;

This cartoon depicts a wide exterior view of a church-like building. Instead of steeples, it has assault-style rifles and targets on the roof. A sign outside the church reads, &ldquo;The High Holy Church of American Gun Worship&rdquo;. A voice from inside the building says, &ldquo;Why did Minneapolis happen?&rdquo;

This cartoon resembles the famous image from World War II of American soldiers raising the flag on Iwo Jima. In this version, a group of MAGA supporters with red hats are raising the original Cracker Barrel logo.

This cartoon takes place outside the Centers for Disease Control, where RFK Jr. and a woman look at a large building with the letters “CDC: Centers for Damage Control and Polarization” written on the side. RFK Jr. has a syringe stuck into his shoulder and a worm on his head. He says, “And we didn’t even have to change the logo!”
