Cartoon Saturday

New month, new cartoons ... some of them, sadly, in positions of responsibility ...

Attorney General William Barr testified before the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, clearly demonstrating that he is less the US Attorney General and more the lead lawyer for the Trump Organization; speaking of Barr, having been savaged by Senate Democrats during his testimony, refused to testify before the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee on Thursday; actor Peter Mayhew, who played the beloved character of Chewbacca the Wookie in the Star Wars films, died at the age of 74; melting glaciers on the slopes of Mount Everest in Nepal have revealed tons of garbage and dozens of human bodies; Japan's new emperor, Naruhito, formally ascended to the Chrysanthemum Throne on Wednesday, replacing his father, Akihito, who abdicated the previous day; and Donald Trump enjoyed a lengthy telephone conversation with his role model Vladimir Putin in which he derided the "Russian hoax" but failed to warn his friend against future election meddling.

Since the Russians are back in the news again, whether continuing to interfere in our elections or fielding spy whales, I thought it might be nice to have a Russian theme again for Cartoon Saturday ...
and what could be more Russian than the famous nesting dolls?

They grow up so fast ...

Cats can be a problem ...

Downsizing is easier when your employees are multiple ...

Yes, this can be an issue ...

That is serious ...

More potential cat trouble ...

It's not easy being a parent sometimes ...

Whose, indeed? ...

Mass murder should never be this easy ...

There you are ...

And there you have it - the first Cartoon Saturday of May, 2019. At least you have something Russia-related that you can laugh at.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts coming tomorrow, when Musical Sunday visits with Rita Coolidge. See you then.
