This political cartoon is set in the ocean. Donald Trump and Uncle Sam are in a small fishing boat with "U.S. Economy" written on the side. Five angry-looking Great White Sharks labeled "TARIFFS" swim under the boat. Trump says, "Don't worry. They're friendly."

This is a four-panel cartoon drawn in a minimalist way and celebrates Mother's Day. Its four panels tell the story of two children running to an oversized card that reads "MOM" and slowly turning it over so it reads "WOW" in the final panel and the kids celebrate with hearts above their heads. Happy Mother's Day to all from The Week.

This political cartoon is titled "TWO DOLLS..." and depicts an angry Donald Trump, drawn like an oversize toddler. He holds ugly, sad-looking voodoo dolls in each hand, both of which have pins stuck in them. One is labeled "Rule of Law" and the other "Democracy."
