Cartoon Saturday


I'm afraid to ask if things can get worse ...

Superheated conspiracy theorist Alex Jones's "Infowars" has filed for bankruptcy after Jones was found liable for damages in a trio of lawsuits over his false claims that the 2012 Sandy Hook school massacre was a hoax; having suffered defeats and embarrassment in its initial assault on Ukraine, Russia has changed its strategy and now admits it wants to conquer the (formerly, at least) pro-Russian eastern regions and the valuable Black Sea coastline joining Russian-controlled areas to Russian-annexed Crimea; ludicrous GOP firebrand representative Marjorie Taylor Greene "testified" under oath before a Georgia court for three hours yesterday at a hearing seeking to prevent her from running for office again ... rather than face charges of perjury when her responses to questions could easily be proven with solid evidence to be lies, she repeatedly replied with "I don't know" or "I don't remember" to avoid perjuring herself; the administration of Florida governor Ron DeSantis has disapproved the use in the state of 54 mathematics textbooks which, he claims, promote "critical race theory" and other "prohibited topics;" and in Las Vegas, police said that a distinctive tattoo of rosary beads with a cross led them to a suspect in a shooting and kidnapping ... named Jesus

The dog's getting used to modern technology ...

Couldn't pass up another great pun ...


Betcha didn't see that one coming ... 


Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Musical Sunday returns with an ever-timely oldie from the late Leonard Cohen.
