Cartoon Saturday

Sometimes you have to wonder whether a week will ever end.

The Supreme Court rejected Der Furor's attempt to dismantle DACA, the program protecting undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children, ruling that the administration had not followed procedures required by law; the Justice Department asked a judge to order John Bolton, Der Furor’s former national security adviser, to halt publication of his bombshell memoir, claiming it contained classified information*; continuing the nationwide trend of removing statues and monuments to Civil War era Confederate figures, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ordered the portraits of three former Speakers who served in the Confederate government to be removed from the Capitol; at least 20 Indian and an unknown number of Chinese soldiers were killed in a bloody clash along the disputed border in the Galwan Valley; and in Russia, an ultraconservative priest who denies that the coronavirus exists has taken over a women's monastery by force and said that church authorities "will have to storm the monastery" if they want him to leave.

From the Department of You May As Well Laugh Because You Can't Cry, this week we offer another collection of timely cartoons about surviving 2020 ...

The latest contest show featuring your favorite socially-distancing celebrities ...

When even the goldfish are socially distancing, you know things are serious ...

Only six more weeks? We can only hope ...

Will we be looking at another baby boom as home remains the only place we can't social-distance? ...

Rat has it exactly right ...

Ain't it the truth? ...

You can't be too careful as you keep your business going ...

The Four Horsemen need to look out for their emergency supplies, too ...

I'd probably wish for the same things ...

It does seem to change with dismaying frequency, doesn't it? ...

And that's it for this week's edition of Cartoon Saturday ... I hope it helped you cope with the unrelenting bad news. Like I said, you may as well laugh, because crying doesn't help.

Have a good day and a great weekend. See you back here tomorrow for Poetry Sunday - more thoughts then.
