This political cartoon takes place outside where a crowd of people are watching fireworks. The fireworks spell out, “Liberty and justice for all.” A woman says, “There’s something we can all agree on.” An angry man in a red hat says, “Naw…it’s too woke for me!”

This cartoon depicts Stephen Miller atop the Statue of Liberty. He has a can of red paint and has painted a message on Lady Liberty’s tablet that reads, “Abandon hope all ye who enter here.”

In this political cartoon, a baby in a diaper labeled “Birthright citizenship” is holding on to a tree branch above a crowd of people. A man in the crowd says, “Hand in there, baby.”

This cartoon depicts an armed Israeli soldier taking cover behind a temporary structure consisting of many bags labeled “Aid.”

This cartoon takes place outside the Supreme Court, which has been bombed, but not totally destroyed. A label on the court reads “Birthright citizenship.” An obese Donald Trump walks over the rubble and says, “Obliterated!”

This cartoon is titled “N.C.’s 3-party system.” It shows a donkey labeled Democrats, an elephant labeled House GOP and a final elephant labeled Senate GOP engaged in a lively discussion.

This editorial cartoon shows Donald Trump with his hands on two smaller figures who are bound and gagged. One figure is labeled Congress and the other Judiciary. Trump says, “Happy INDEPENDENCE day!”

This cartoon is titled “The Next Step.” It takes place in the air and shows 11 inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency skydiving out of a B2 bomber.

This is a two-panel editorial cartoon. The left panel has a blue Democratic button that reads “tax the rich.” The right panel has three red buttons. The first reads: “Borrow from the rich, to pay for budget deficits created by tax cuts for the rich, and then make interest payments to the rich while we all struggle to pay off our $36,220,000,000,000 national debt for generations to come.” The second reads, “Oh, and while we’re at it, let’s raise the debt limit $5 trillion more.” The last button reads, “In other words, MAGA” and has the elephant symbol for the GOP.

This cartoon takes place at an outdoor fireworks stand. At right, a little kid that resembles Donald Trump is pulling a large missile on a wagon. The shop owner speaks to a second kid and says, “We’ve got super twizzlers, bottle rocks, barfing baboons, exploding pandas, black kat firecrackers, but sorry kid. That guy took our last bunker buster.”
