Happy New Year?

Relieved that 2016 is almost over? How do you celebrate the passing of a year that nobody wants to remember? And how do you celebrate the start of a new year that will probably be even worse? How about with some new cocktails? © Brian McFadden Let’s just hope we make it through the next […]

No Laughing Matter?

Now that the election is over, political comics are having a tough time.

Trumple-Thin-Skin

I think the best solution is to keep pissing Donald Trump off as much as possible. He’ll stay up all night, every night, tweeting away. Keep him busy. Maybe that will minimize the damage from his presidency. I predict it won’t take too long for people to get tired of him, just like they got […]

Coal in their Stockings?

It started when progressives started donating money to Planned Parenthood in the name of VP-elect Mike Pence. Pence receives a thank-you note for every donation. Donations have surged 17 times their normal rate since the election. But why stop there? Many progressives are now making donations to other organizations in the names of their Trump-voting […]

Electoral College Hypocrisy

After the 2012 election, Donald Trump thought that Barack Obama, while winning the Electoral College, lost the popular vote.

Buying Access

During the presidential campaign, Donald Trump and other Republicans blasted the Clinton Foundation for supposedly giving access to the Clintons for donors.
