Scott Walker


The Candidates Get Out the Vote

Candidates Get Out the VoteI drew and submitted this just before the audio of Trump’s assault comments came out, so I offer my apologies for the soft language in this cartoon.

The Side Effects of Diplomacy

The Side Effects of DiplomacyThere’s finally a nuclear agreement with Iran, and of course it’s not going over so well with the warmonger set. The only alternative to this deal is another war. Anyone who says otherwise is either lying or incredibly dumb.

Meanwhile, there are a ton of other extremists right here doing their best to ruin everything.
