Political cartoons for January 28

Wednesday's political cartoons include slipping in the polls, Kristi Noem in trouble, and ICE in the classroom

Donald Trump is on his back slipping down a slide-like patch of ice labeled with the words “Polls” and an arrow pointing down. A sign nearby reads, “Danger! ICE”. Trump’s tie trails behind him and is tied to an elephant’s trunk. The elephant looks scared and has the words “‘26 mid terms” written on its side.

Kristi Noem stands in the middle of a patch of cracking ice about the break. A sign reads, “Danger: Thin Ice.” Noem wears a large cowboy hat. She says, “You mean executing Americans in the street is not a good look?!”
