This cartoon is titled “Rush Hour” The view is from above and shows many military tanks rolling into Los Angeles. One of the tanks has a “Trump” sign and a man in a tank says, “We’re Almost there!” The sign on the road shows the tanks are headed toward “Los Angeles, Police State, End of Democracy.”

This editorial cartoon takes place in a living room where a man watches television with his dog and child. The screen shows “U.S. Government Debt: $36 trillion.” The child says, “Why not print up 36 trillion dollars and pay it off?”

This political cartoon is set outside, where a lone man faces a phalanx of heavily armed elephants dressed in tactical gear. The man holds a sign that reads, “States rights” and thinks to himself, “I’d swear they were behind me just a minute ago…”

This cartoon is set in hospital and two male doctors are speaking. One doctor holds an x-ray labeled RFK Jr. and says, “It’s RFK Jr. Unfortunately, there is no vaccination for stupidity.” The other doctor responds, “Is that a brain-eating worm?”

This is a four-panel political cartoon where each panel is drawn to resemble a gun site, as if the reader is looking through it at a target. The first three panels show journalists in Gaza, Ukraine, and Sudan. The final panel shows a reporter in Los Angeles.

This editorial cartoon is titled “Military Parade”. Donald Trump sits on a throne and wears a crown. He’s between two tanks. His throne has balloons tied to it as if he is a child. One balloon reads “Happy Birthday” and another is a smiley face.

This is a four-panel political cartoon. The first three panels show smokestacks polluting the air with fire and smoke. Starting in the second panel, the smoke starts to form into the shape of a deathly skeleton. In the final panel, a green boxing glove appears and hits the skeleton, breaking it apart.

This cartoon depicts an overweight man in a MAGA hat and T-shirt that reads “Jan. 6 Tour Guide.” He carries a “Don’t Tread on Me Flag” with its coiled snake. The man says, “If the government oppresses me, it’s tyranny. If the government oppresses you, it’s law and order.”

This cartoon is set in a car dealership where a salesman is showing a Tesla Cybertruck to a man and woman. The salesman says, “The accessory package includes a Molotiv cocktail, and a fire extinguisher, so you’re prepared no matter how the Trump/Musk relationship works out.”
