A haggard-looking elephant in a suit holds a double-barreled shotgun that twists around so it will hit him when he fires. The shotgun is labeled “Vindictive Prosecutions”. The wall behind the elephant is filled with targets that are labeled “Tim Walz, James Comey, Letitia James, Sandwich-assault guy, Anthony Fauci, Reflecting pool ‘vandal’” and other victims of political prosecutions. The elephant says, “Now it’s Fauci’s turn to get both barrels!”
