Political cartoons for November 21 | The Week

published 21 November 2025

This is a three panel cartoon that is read from top to bottom. The first panel features a newscaster saying, &ldquo;President Trump has signed legislation for the Justice Department to release the Jeffrey Epstein files.&rdquo; The next panel shows the newscaster with two elephants who look closely at papers. &ldquo;Will the public get to see the files soon?&rdquo; says the newscaster. In the final panel, an elephant responds, &ldquo;Just a minute. We&rsquo;re checking to see if any of our big donors are on the list.&rdquo;

A woman in an American flag sweater holds a sign that reads &ldquo;Accountability.&rdquo; Donald Trump towers over her and is drawn in caricature to resemble a big with tiny hooves and a twisted tail. He says, &ldquo;Quiet, piggy&hellip;&rdquo;

Donald Trump points at wind turbines on the water in the top panel of this two-panel cartoon. He says, &ldquo;Wind turbines ruin the view.&rdquo; In the bottom panel, he points at oil rigs in the ocean and says, &ldquo;But oil rigs are beautiful!&rdquo;

A man who resembles Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud pushes a shopping cart with Donald Trump seated inside it. Trump holds a bag of money and a deluxe bonesaw box is on the bottom part of the cart. MBS says, &ldquo;America has the best president money can buy!&rdquo; He&rsquo;s leaving a store named &ldquo;Trump USA: Always for sale, always&rdquo; that also has a sign advertising &ldquo;Dismembered Reputation Restorer&rdquo; in aisle 47. A US fighter jet is parked outside the store and &ldquo;Sold to Saudi Arabia&rdquo; is written on the side.

A man, woman, and child are trapped inside a grocery cart labeled &ldquo;Grocery Prices&rdquo; in this cartoon. They hold the side of it like the bars of a jail cell. The man says, &ldquo;I heard the Thanksgiving turkey got a pardon.&rdquo;

This cartoon takes place outside a building where a sign on the wall reads &ldquo;Saudi Consulate: Istanbul.&rdquo; A bloody suitcase is on the ground next to the door to the consulate. A quote from Donald Trump is at the bottom of the image: &ldquo;Things Happen &mdash; Donald J. Trump.&rdquo;

Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty drink coffee and hold a casual conversation in this four panel cartoon. Uncle Sam&rsquo;s laptop has a picture of a file labeled &ldquo;Epstein.&rdquo; Uncle Sam speaks in the first three panels and says: &ldquo;OMG, what if it&rsquo;s actually proven that the President of the United States is a vile, lying, corrupt, low-life scumbag sex offender? Lady Liberty responds, &ldquo;Again. Proven again.&rdquo;

This cartoon has a newspaper headline at top left that says, &ldquo;News: Trump receives MBS on a red carpet.&rdquo; The rest of the image is dominated by what looks like a red carpet but is instead a long trail of blood running from the body of murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi next to a bonesaw. Trump and a smiling MBS stand in the blood.

A crane labeled &ldquo;Trump&rsquo;s Tariffs&rdquo; is on the left side of this image. It has just dropped a massive ball labeled &ldquo;Prices&rdquo; on top of someone. A man says to the person under the ball, &ldquo;Trump says he can&rsquo;t hear your &lsquo;thank yous&rsquo; for his tariffs bringing down prices&hellip;&rdquo;

A woman watches television in her home. She&rsquo;s watching the news, and the male newscaster is wearing an old, makeshift wooden barrel instead of clothes. The newscaster says, &ldquo;More buyouts, mergers and cutbacks in the news media.&rdquo;
