Can someone just put this month out of its misery, please?
Der Furor delivered a rambling and insulting speech at the UN on Monday, prompting an unnamed senior foreign diplomat to ask, “This man is stark raving mad … do Americans not see how embarrassing this is??;" not surprisingly, the rapture predicted by many now-disappointed religious extremists for Monday or Tuesday failed to occur; in the latest move by Der Furor's administration to sanitize the nation’s history, Defense secretary Pete Hegseth has announced that 20 US soldiers who took part in the 1890 massacre of hundreds of Lakota men, women and children at Wounded Knee will keep the Congressional Medals of Honor awarded to them; the White House has ordered federal agencies to prepare for mass layoffs of "all employees whose work is not funded through means other than annual appropriations and does not align with [Der Furor’s] priorities" in the event of a government shutdown next week; and in California, an attorney has been fined $10,000 for filing an appeal full of fake legal authorities and citations generated by ChatGPT.
This week, because I was too lazy to curate a collection, we'll just do a cartoon potpourri from my as-yet-unsorted file ...
A pro right to the end!
I know someone else who likes that sort of comedy ...
How the news shows balance viewpoints ...
I'm sure there's already an import model toilet from Japan that works this way ...
And we have a country full of Franks, don't we?
Getting shot in a Western flick, 2025 ...
I think this is probably what's waiting for me ...
Yes. Yes, they are ...
Covering all of Waldo's bases ...
I think the answer is pretty clear, don't you?
And that's it for our final Cartoon Saturday of the month - I hope it helped take your mind off the state of the world for a few minutes.
Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday returns. See you then.
