This political cartoon is titled “How the Dinosaurs Went Extinct.” It’s set outside. A dinosaur labeled “U.S. Deficit” is smiling and looking up at a fiery comet about to crash into Earth. The dinosaur says, “Hooray! More tax cuts for the rich!”

This editorial cartoon features Vladimir Putin armed with a shotgun and standing on a ladder. He's next to a barrel labeled “Ukrainian Civilians.” Putin is speaking into a phone and says, “Peace talks? Tell them I’ve gone fishing.”

This cartoon depicts a donkey laying on the ground in a fetal position and sucking its thumb. There’s a banner behind the donkey that says “Democratic Party 2026” that looks limp and has partially fallen off the wall. Barack Obama stands next to the donkey with a pleading look on his face and says, “C’mon, man!”

This cartoon is titled “Extra Baggage” and is set inside an airport. It shows new FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford headed to his confirmation hearings while he drags a giant suitcase behind him. The suitcase holds a large bag of money and a man in a suit drawn to look like a fat-cat lobbyist. The lobbyist holds a paper that reads, “Profit over safety." There is a discarded piece of paper that reads “pilot training.”

This editorial cartoon is set outside where two men sit on a park bench. One man, red-faced and angry, is reading a newspaper. The other man looks surprised. The man reading the newspaper says, “Nowadays, how would we get by without words like” and then a bunch of symbols to represent cuss words.

This is an editorial cartoon drawn to resemble the “Don’t Tread on Me” snake image. However, this cartoon is titled “Don’t Cover Me” and the snake wears a red MAGA hat and is coiled around a broken pole labeled “Medicaid.”

This cartoon depicts a grumpy Donald Trump at his desk in the oval office. He’s picking petals off a flower while he says, “Putin wants peace, he doesn’t, he does, he doesn’t.”

This editorial cartoon takes place in a Senate hearing room where Kermit the Frog is testifying. Kermit is behind a microphone and has a nameplate that reads “Mr. Frog.” A senator says, “Your liberal bias is evident, Kermit! If not true, then why do you sing songs about ‘being green’?”

This cartoon takes place outside in a field near a sign that reads “American Farms.” The field is filled with ICE agents in black picking fruits and vegetables. One of them says, “I guess we should’ve seen this coming!”

This is a two-panel cartoon. In the left Panel, Donald Trump speaks to Vladimir Putin and says, “Stop bombing Ukraine!” In the right panel, Trump speaks to a man in a red MAGA hat and says, “And stop talking about Epstein!”
