Cartoon Saturday


It's been a heckuva week, hasn't it? 

After President Biden authorized Ukraine to fire US-provided long-range missiles at targets inside Russia, Russian President Putin approved a change to Russian defense policy to formally lower the threshold for Russia’s use of nuclear weapons; Der Furor continued to stock his proposed Cabinet with TV personalities and quasi-celebrities, such as celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz to oversee the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services; Texas authorities have offered Der Furor 1,400-acres of land along the US-Mexico border to build detention facilities for undocumented migrants; and in Michigan, after three hunters died from apparent heart attacks in the first 48 hours of deer season, a local medical examiner has encouraged at-risk hunters to have a doctor’s evaluation before going too far into the woods

This week, in honor of Der Furor's choices for staffing his incoming administration, I thought a collection of cartoons about clowns would be appropriate ... 

He heard about the casting call at Mar-a-Lago ...


I wonder if the engine warranty covers it ...


Extra care is required at clown funerals ...


Most people don't realize the degree of planning that goes into a lot of those tricks ...


With apologies to Johnny Cash ...


Clown real estate agents don't have an easy job ...


It sounds like an expensive problem ...


If Elon Musk gets appointed NASA administrator ...


Inclusion of elephants in this cartoon is a nice touch ...


Looking for a ride to the auditions at Mar-a-Lago ...


And that's it for this week ... I've got a lot more clown cartoons in my collection, but I think I'm going to need them over the next couple of years.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday asks whether it's a good idea for MAGAts drunk on power are smart to take on women. See you then.
