This editorial cartoon shows two professional-looking and highly-ranked military men walking into the Pentagon. The sign on the wall used to read “Department of Defense” and then “Department of War” but “defense” and “war” have been crossed out and replaced with “WWF”.

This Donald Trump cartoon depicts an angry-looking Trump with an elephant and a donkey. Trump says, “If they don't stop, we will punish them severely! They’ll find out what it’s called the Department of War!” The elephant says, “Well, it’s good he’s finally getting tough with Russia!” The donkey responds, “Uh, he’s talking about Chicago.”

This cartoon depicts Donald Trump at the desk in the Oval Office. He holds up a copy of the image of the naked woman he drew for Jeffrey Epstein. This image originally read “Believe Women” but someone, presumably Trump, has crossed out the “W” “O” and “N” so the image now reads, “Believe Me”.

This cartoon is titled “Gaza Evacuation Plan!” It depicts an emaciated and naked figure pressed by a plunger into the bottom of a tube shaped like Gaza. The plunger is controlled by a mechanical grip that is drawn to look like a soldier wearing a Star of David helmet.

This editorial cartoon is titled “Other suspected creepy Trump art.” It depicts three different famous paintings: The Mona Lisa, The Whistler’s Mother, and The Scream. Donald Trump has written on each one with his pen. On the Mona Lisa, he’s written, “Never met her!” On Whistler’s Mother he’s written “Too old, not my type!” and on The Scream he’s written “Hoax” and drawn an arrow pointing to “Epstein Files”.
