You just can't make this stuff up ...
The parents of First Lady Melania Trump received their US citizenship in a ceremony this week - a citizenship enabled by the "chain migration" system that Donald Trump has repeatedly and loudly denounced; Vice President Pence announced details of the administration's proposal to create a US "Space Force;" Donald Trump imposed additional tariffs on Turkey in order (among other things) to pressure that country's government to release an imprisoned American pastor; a white supremacist rally scheduled for August 12th in Washington, DC, appears to be drawing far more counterprotesters than white supremacists; and North Korea has reportedly rejected every denuclearization proposal put forward by the United States, declaring them to be "gangster-like."
This week, in honor of the policies and pronouncements of the administration, we have cartoons based on fairy tales and myths ...
As we get older, the fairy tales change ...
Unhappily ever after ...
One-upmanship at Mother Goose's tavern ...
If the (cement) shoe fits ...
All of us parents have been there ...
Even fairy tale characters have to watch their diets ...
And what's in the Girl Scout Cookies? ...
If Hansel and Gretel had had GPS ...
The sad truth ...
Poor Quasimodo, he just can't help it ...
And there you have it - another Cartoon Saturday attempt to keep your spirits up while the swamp is being restocked.
Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Musical Sunday checks in with Kid Creole and the Coconuts.

A neat possibility - the cow getting bragging rights for jumping.
I like all of these new twists on fairy tales. Have a nice weekend, Bilbo!
On the second ring Quasimodo would have caused the plane to be diverted and then he would have been arrested.
I would feel cheated with only four and fifteen blackbirds!
Just got to reading this edition. Stellar!
