Thought it’d be fun to take a look at the evolution of a running gag of mine to help put today’s cartoon into perspective for my new followers. My first Trump Loves Turkey cartoon was drawn in 2020 on Thanksgiving with a new one posted annually since. 🧵

Iowa Republicans blocked a Satanic Temple holiday display AGAIN because "anything that is not God first" is harmful to children.

Did Kash Patel ever take the FBI physical requirements like rank-and-file workers? Of course not. And if he tried, he’d fail the warm-up.
He’s too busy partying while working people keep this country running.

John McCain gave his thumbs down,
on repealing the ACA,
primarily because there was no

The Republicans have moved into the space where they believe laws should be changed to further enable and codify their pedophilia and grift.
And they've moved people like Weiss into media spaces to help them normalize it.

Trump never had a fan base.
He had an army of bots who sold his racism and misogyny and xenophobia to uneducated Americans who took voting advice from bald eagle profiles posting Tweets from Eastern Europe.
It’s as stupid as it sounds.

The President intends to tell the US military to murder US civilians, and is using the FBI to threaten anyone who wants to stop him.
The FBI has requested interviews with Democrats who appeared in a controversial video reminding U.S. service members of their duty to disobey unlawful orders, deepening the Trump administration’s campaign to punish some of its fiercest critics.
