In this editorial cartoon, four frogs wearing MAGA hats sit in a boiling pot of water atop a bed of flames. One says, “Yeah, this is a good thing!” The next says, “This is what we wanted him to do!” Another says, “Woo hoo!”

This cartoon takes place outside where two people are drawn in silhouette watching fireworks. The fireworks are labeled, “Trump spending bill $3 trillion debt.” One person says, “It’s not so much big and beautiful as it is deadly and terrifying!”

This cartoon is titled The Transfusion and takes place in a hospital room where a photo of Donald Trump hangs on the wall. Two patients are in bed hooked up to an IV bag labeled “Big Beautiful Bill.” The patient on the left looks dead and is labeled “Medicaid Patients.” The patient on the right looks like a happy rich man with a top hat, monocle, cigarette in a holder, and a martini glass. He’s labeled “Tax Cut” and is giving a thumb’s up to the photo of Trump.

This cartoon is set outside the U.S. Capital building where ghostly figures are rising up into a dark hole in the sky. Two women watch, and one says, “I’m impressed that many of them still had souls to lose.”

This cartoon shows a frightened Uncle Sam strapped to a giant firework in the sky surrounded by explosions. The firework is labeled “Expansion of presidential powers.”

This cartoon is titled “Work Requirement”. Donald Trump is here talking to a woman holding a baby and the hand of her other child. Trump’s golf cart is in the background. Trump holds a bottle of cologne and says, “Why can’t you Medicaid losers get a real job, like selling scam $149 bottles of Trump cologne?”

In this cartoon, a man is mowing his lawn while sweating and singing “Frostee the Snowman was a jolly happy soul” near a large, menacing ball of flame meant to represent heat and the sun. A woman says about the man’s singing, “He claims it keeps him cool!”

This cartoon depicts an elderly woman in a hospital bed hooked up to many wires. An elephant in a suit holds a bill titled “Big Ugly Bill” and has just pulled the woman’s plug. He says, “Sorry, granny.”

This cartoon features a smiling Donald Trump being interviewed by a man. The man asks him, “Sir, how do you feel about Elon slamming the Big, Beautiful, Bill?” Trump is imagining Elon Musk behind bars in a cell labeled “Alligator Alcatraz”.

This editorial cartoon is titled “A Place for Mom”. An elderly woman with a cane sits sadly on the street, begging for coins next to a newspaper box with a headline reading, “GOP wants Medicaid Cuts for Billionaire Tax Breaks.” The woman is holding a sign that reads, “HELP. Evicted from nursing home.”
