This political cartoon is drawn to resemble a card from the Monopoly board game. It’s titled “White House Pardons” and shows the Monopoly man flying out of a cage. Next to the man is written “Get out of jail, free*” The note below the asterisk reads, “* or a million dollar ‘donation’ — or just say you like me!” The final text reads, “This card may be kept until needed.”

This cartoon depicts an elephant in a suit comforting a crying, distraught congressional bill labeled “Trump Tax Bill.” The bill is drawn to resemble a woman with red lips and yellow high heels. She says, “He called me abominable!” The elephant responds, “There, there, BeeBee, it was just the drugs talkin’!”
