Being a dick, that is. Yes, he said our easily hackable government computer system is vulnerable to Russia, China or “Somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds.” He makes our job so easy, “our” being America’s editorial cartoonists. And speaking of editorial cartoonists, I just spent a week with family and attending the Association Of American Editorial Cartoonists convention at Duke University in Durham, NC, as part of their 2016 Satire Festival.

How can Pres. Obama declare areas of the oceans far from our shores national monuments? The Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument is 150 miles south of Cape Cod.

I’ve said it before that it’s impossible to trust any politician, that what they say means nothing and what they do means everyt

Bullshit artist, that is. I may have drawn my last Trump cartoon, the one that sums up his whole campaign. What do I need to say after I’ve said this? I mean, this baby sums it up. Trump says he knows more about ISIS than the United States Army, Air Force and Marine generals–– pure Trump. He says he has a secret plan to defeat ISIS––pure Nixon.
