Cartoon Saturday


The news isn't likely to get any better any time soon, so we might as well just get on with it ...

In one of the more insanely provocative political moves in American history, Der Furor announced he will nominate flamethrowing, grandstanding, and totally unqualified Florida Representative Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General; the satirical news organization The Onion, with the assistance of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased the assets of disgraced InfoWars founder Alex Jones; in the national capital of Brasilia, a man who tried to blow up Brazil's Supreme Court is believed to have been killed by his own bomb; GOP representative Michael McCaul, chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, was briefly detained at Washington Dulles International Airport and charged with being drunk in public; and in Iran, the fundamentalist Islamic regime has set up a mental health clinic to "treat" women who refuse to wear approved Islamic clothing, to be overseen by the country’s Headquarters for Enjoining the Good and Forbidding the Evil ... a speaker for the new clinic said it would promote “dignity, modesty, chastity, and hijab,” and that attendance would be “optional” ... in Washington, a spokesman for House Speaker Mike Johnson said that a Congressional delegation would visit Iran soon to examine the feasibility of establishing such clinics in the United States to enforce government-approved religious liberties.  

This week, no theme ... just a selection of random cartoons from my yet-to-be-filed folder:

My last phone call with our financial advisor ... 


Some of these just hit the spot on the right day ...


Ah, yes - I sometimes get calls like that ...


A flashback to my time in the dating pool ...


If Der Furor ever ends up answering for his actions ...


Make it a double ...


We're goin' old-school ...


There seems to be a lot of this going around ...


Too bad there's no supply chain disruption on this one ...


Not if Der Furor has anything to say about it ...


And that's it for this week's no-theme Cartoon Saturday ... I hope it gave you a few chuckles.

Have a good day and a great weekend, and come back tomorrow when Musical Sunday brings back The Cowboy Junkies. More thoughts then.
