Political cartoons for January 23

Friday's political cartoons include the new Board of Peace, a market rebound, and Melania at the movies

Donald Trump sits at a round table at his so-called “Board of Peace.” There is a large, gold cauldron filled with membership dues, paid in cash. To Trump’s left are Bond villain E.S. Blofeld with a cat in his lap, Batman villainThe Penguin, the tiger named Scar from the Lion King, the Evil Queen from Snow White and then Lucifer and Lex Luthor. Vladimir Putin’s seat is empty. Trump turns to Jared Kushner and says, “Jared…Call Vladimir and see when he intends to join.”

This cartoon is titled “ICE Agent Group Photo.” It shows a mob of masked insurrectionists outside the U.S. Capitol building. There is a “TRUMP” flag, a Confederate flag, and the Gadsden “Don’t Tread on Me” with a coiled snake.
