Some goofs and gags to close out the year (or until next week when I draw something else).

The last panel is inspired by the alt-text I wrote for this Bluesky post. Larry’s failson is destroying CBS and Paramount by installing people even dumber than him, I assume. After this was already inked, Bari Weiss killed a 60 Minutes piece about our CECOT concentration camp in El Salvador. I’m sure she’ll fail up even further and get appointed to Captain on Strange New Worlds.

Last-Minute Grifts

Except for Pam Bondi, who I drew a couple weeks ago, I managed to go almost the whole year without drawing these particular administration freaks. Looking at their faces the last two days has dealt me tremendous psychological damage.

We’ll all have to look at them for three more years, unless something very cool happens. With the way 2025’s going, I doubt 2026 has anything like that in store for us. But here’s to hoping!

More Schmaltzmark Channel Holiday Specials

Just two weeks till Christmas and I’m making a recurring bit of a thing I did last year to give me some lead time to wrap things up to meet my end-of-year deadlines. Most of these are silly little gags that could be evergreen except for the unprovoked attacks on Venezuelan boats.

The administration and Pete Hegseth are widely loathed for their actions, but Congress just renewed the National Defense Authorization Act to keep funding their atrocities. Too much of the economy is wrapped up in that bill to shut it down, and whatever’s left is trapped in the A.I. bubble that’s about to burst.

Anyway, happy holidays!

Leaked MRIs

They’re trucking Trump up to the National Zoo every other week to put him in the large animal MRI, and the official line is that he’s in perfect health with a good brain. Whatever it really is, it needs to hurry up and be extremely painful. Hopefully it happens over the holiday break so we can all celebrate as a nation.

I’ve referenced the movie Innerspace before and like everything Joe Dante made in the ’80s it was extremely influential to me. Gremlins 3 might finally be happening, but Chris Columbus is attached to direct, which seems specifically designed to infuriate nerds like me. I know everyone’s watching Home Alone this time of year, but that guy’s not good!
