That Herblock toon from the '60s is depressingly educational, though...

It's definitely scary and kinda cool? Unique?


Prolly just me and my inherent warpedness. That's okay.

which shows my age, for sure.

But even in this cartoon, Trump makes him look like Mother Teresa.

Then there's the one he made of Joe McCarthy: Joe McCarthy is stuck in a spider web, struggling, saying "I CAN'T DO THIS TO ME!!" since he died of alcoholism.

I have met Lalo. He's awesome.

Maybe next year they'll bust Ivanka for violating the Hatch Act.

His political cartoons were a real force to be reckoned with, back in the day; as I remember, they particularly irritated Nixon.

He didn't have to do much to make Nixon look like a creep!

Everything that's happening politically needs the context of history from we codgers. Like stuff really started going to hell after Ronnie was elected in 1980. Union busting and worse from there.
