Cartoon Saturday


The fun just never stops ...

Attorney General William Barr announced during a Congressional hearing that he suspected - admittedly without evidence - that the Trump campaign had been "spied on" and he intended to investigate; Donald Trump took another step toward weaponizing the immigration crisis by suggesting that asylum seekers be shipped to "sanctuary cities," most of which have Democratic administrations; Donald Trump last week privately told Kevin McAleenan, the border enforcement official he was about to name as acting secretary of homeland security, that he would pardon him if he encountered any legal problems as a result of taking illegal actions directed by Trump; the government of Ecuador revoked the asylum status of Wikileaks figure Julian Assange and expelled him from the Ecuadorian embassy in London, following which he was promptly arrested on a number of charges; and in Washington on Friday, a man set himself on fire in front of the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue.

Most days I don't feel my age. But on those days when I do, I really do. So how about a collection of cartoons about old age ...

Yes, this is me, especially after a few minutes of watching the news ...


Gardening is my version ...


I'm really not going there ...


When multiple problems collide ...


Technology is everywhere ...


I thought there was a connection there ...


I'm marching in this one ... I think ...


It's all in how you look at it ...


Ha, ha! ... There must be a lot of Mars Rover drivers here in NoVa ...


Giddyap ... but not too quickly ...


Have a good day and a great weekend. Good luck with getting older. More thoughts tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday remembers the founder of the Salvation Army. See you then.

Great cartoons! Some things to look forward to in old age. Do you think we might be lucky enough to not remember this times?

You could say Julian Assange has been shown the Ecua-DOOR.
