When they turn off the internet, we are to all meet up at our local libraries.

Being tethered to the archaic past is keeping us from boldly moving forward.

This is a single-panel political cartoon that visually contrasts technological advancement with political ideology.
The image shows a large, futuristic starship—specifically, the USS Enterprise from the Star Trek franchise, identifiable by its distinctive saucer section and twin warp nacelles—flying high above a landscape. The ship is drawn in a detailed, sci-fi comic book style.
The ship is tethered by a thick cable or rope to a small, wooden, covered wagon (like a pioneer's covered wagon or a prairie schooner) that is resting on a small, grassy hill. The wagon appears antiquated and is drawn in a simpler, more cartoonish style, making it look grounded and rustic in contrast to the high-tech starship.
The significant element is the text on the covered wagon. The side of the canvas cover features large, bright red capital letters that clearly spell out the acronym "MAGA" (Make America Great Again).
The overall composition suggests a contrast between the advanced, forward-looking nature of the Star Trek vessel and the outdated, slow-moving nature of the political slogan it is dragging behind it.

Can't help but think of all the freedoms we lost in the panic after 9/11 2001. And how the creation of Domestic Terrorist category (2001), The Patriot Act (2001) DHS (2002) JCAT (2001) and ICE (2003) are now being used against us in a fascist over throw of our nation. How very lucky for Cheeto, huh?

Pictured are two men talking in an industrial bakery. One man says its a great place to work, but there's a really high turnover. Second panel pictures a turnover all stoned or high with red eyes.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
