Two previews deadder.substack.com/p/evidence-o... www.dailycartoonist.com/index.php/20... #VoterFraud #PoliticalCartoon #GOP #USPol #DebMilbrath #MichaelDeAdder

An editorial cartoon by Michael de Adder depicts Donald Trump and two GOP elephants dressed as forensic investigators collecting bull feces from the ground. They meticulously package the droppings into evidence bags and place them into a crate labeled "Evidence of voter fraud."

This political cartoon collage by Deb Milbrath satirizes Donald Trump's rhetoric ahead of his address to the nation, dismissing real-world issues in favor of personal narratives. The red, comic-style panels show Trump rejecting critical topics with phrases like "...IRAN war – No cause we won," "-- HIGH costs – NOPE the economy is great," and "-- ICE killings – NO! cause they're illegal." The collage culminates in a final scene where an aggressive Trump presents papers labeled "DEclassified" and "UNsealed" under the bold headline "..PROOF!", concluding with a sign that reads "2020 was stolen."

IF REAL LIFE ENCOUNTERS WERE LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA": This could be the title of a cartoon exhibition. These cartoons are not redundant – they all reveal new facets of what we have given up and what we have traded it for. (Yes, and I see the irony in posting this.) #EditorialCartoon #Satire #SocialMedia

An editorial cartoon by David Horsey, titled "The false sociability of social media," visualizes online behavior in a real-life setting, framed by a sign that reads: "IF REAL LIFE ENCOUNTERS WERE LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA:" The scene features six characters arranged in three distinct pairs from left to right, where a figure in the foreground interacts with or reacts to a masked figure standing behind or next to them.In the first pair on the left, a blonde woman stands quietly in the foreground, looking skeptically at a woman behind her who hides her true face behind a cartoonish, overly cheerful mask while loudly bragging about her perfect life, beauty, and popularity. In the center pair, a distressed, dark-haired woman in the foreground flinches backward in shock as a man wearing a menacing, red demon mask leans aggressively over her shoulder, screaming vicious political insults and death threats. In the final pair on the right, a calm man in a suit stands in the foreground, turning to question a mysterious figure behind him who is wrapped in a trench coat and wears a green alien mask; while the masked figure loudly spouts a paranoid, absurd conspiracy theory about borders and guns, the man in the suit sharply observes, "DO I DETECT A RUSSIAN ACCENT?", hinting at foreign bot interference.

The same message, once with a cliché visual metaphor, once with an innovative one taken straight from real life. substack.com/home/post/p-... jackohman.substack.com/p/your-other...

An editorial cartoon by Nick Anderson, titled "Todd Blanche," depicts a man in a business suit sitting behind a committee hearing desk with a nameplate reading "TODD BLANCHE." The man is drawn with mechanical joints and puppet strings attached to his arms, contradicting his speech bubble which states, "I'd like to assure the committee of my complete and total independence from the administration."

This political cartoon by Jack Ohman depicts a Senate confirmation hearing for a nominee labeled "MR. BLANCHE," who is sitting at a witness table next to an American flag asking "...ANY QUESTIONS?". On the neck of the nominee, a large, colorful billboard resembles a cheap television advertisement and features an illustration of his face alongside the bold text: "NEED A FIXER ATTORNEY GENERAL? 'He's On Trump's Side...Not Yours.' 1-800-LAW-HACK CALL TODD BLANCHE! TRUMP".

De Adder uses a similar strategy, but conveys a slightly different message.

A political cartoon by Michael de Adder depicts Donald Trump hidden behind a curtain next to an open casket containing the deceased US Senator Lindsey Graham. Trump acts as a ventriloquist, throwing his voice to make it appear as though the body is speaking the speech bubble, "MY LAST DYING WISH WAS TO PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT." On the left, an elderly woman with her hands clasped in prayer stares in wide-eyed shock, believing she is hearing a voice from beyond the grave.

Karikatur von Heiko Sakurai, 13.07.2026: Ene dreiköpfige Familie steht in einem Flur; die Mutter hat tadelnd den Zeigefinger erhoben und sagt zum Sohn: „Sven, mach hier nicht den Wegner! Es waren keine 'kommunikativen Fehler', sondern du hast tagelang darüber gelogen, dass du im Freibad statt in der Schule warst!“, während d der Vater mit verschränkten Armen danebensteht. (Im Hintergrund hängen ein gerahmtes Bild an der Wand; zwei Kartons stehen auf einem Sideboard neben einer Tür.)

This cartoon cleverly manages to superficially respect the 'speak no ill of the dead' rule and only attack Trump's narcissism. But of course, conclusions can be drawn about the relationship between the two during life...

A political cartoon by Matson depicts a large, black tombstone on a multi-tiered stone base in a sparse grassy landscape. The top of the headstone features gold flourishes and the prominent text "The Donald J. TRUMP Memorial," while the lower section reads "Final Resting Place of Senator Lindsey Graham 1955 – 2026" in smaller font.

This cartoon, on the other hand, is highly political —and while it's not hysterical, it's brilliant and prophetic. I found both cartoons on today's post from @csotd.bsky.social Mike Petersen's must-read blog 'Comic Strip of the Day'. www.dailycartoonist.com/index.php/20...

An "F-Minus" comic strip by Tony Carrillo shows two men standing outside, with one wearing a mask on the side of his head and the other wearing a mask pushed up onto his forehead. The man on the right says in a speech bubble, "ISNT IT WEIRD TO THINK OUR KIDS WON'T EVEN REMEMBER A TIME BEFORE EVERYONE WORE FACE MASKS TO AVOID MASS SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS?"

For a change, not a political cartoon, but hysterical imo.😂 comicskingdom.com/bizarro

This single-panel Bizarro cartoon by Dan Piraro, published on July 12, 2006, depicts two cowboys outside a Wild West saloon. One man holds the reins of an unusual saddled creature that combines the long ears of a llama with the forelegs and overall body shape of a horse. Looking at this strange animal, the other cowboy asks via a speech bubble: "So, how do you like driving a hybrid?"

This three-panel political cartoon by Rick McKee features a caricature of Donald Trump speaking with an aide in a black suit. In the first panel, Trump asks why Senate candidate Graham Platner is dropping out of the race, to which the aide responds that Platner had a Nazi tattoo and faced sexual assault accusations. The final panel delivers the punchline, with Trump shrugging in confusion and repeating, "Ok, but why is he dropping out?"

Wonderful collection of #1776 cartoons tomtoro.substack.com/p/july-4th-j...

This cartoon by Tom Toro depicts an elegant historical gathering where two women in period gowns stand in the foreground conversing. One woman gestures toward a group of men in tailcoats and waistcoats behind them, with the caption reading: "We let them ratify one constitution, and suddenly everything’s ‘My original intent’ this, and ‘My original intent’ that." (The cartoon satirizes the conservative American legal philosophy of "originalism," mocking how the Framers of the Constitution might use the concept of "original intent" to stubbornly dominate everyday arguments)

And that worries the conservative cartoonist Ramirez, because a Democrat could become president one day. But the 'SAVE Act' will prevent that for at least 100 years...

An editorial cartoon by Michael Ramirez depicts a worried elephant, representing the Republican Party, sitting in a dimly lit room with a fortune teller. Looking over a crystal ball labeled "Supreme Court Ruling," she warns him that the president will soon have unlimited powers and the next one may be a Democrat.

Frau kann es allerdings auch so sehen: bsky.app/profile/tini... Und aus dieser Sicht erinnert es mich an Elisabeth Ohlsons Porträt der Parlamentarierin Nyamko Ana Sabuni, später schwedische Ministerin für Geschlechtergeichstellung und Integration, dann Vorsitzende der schwedischen Liberalen.

Das Foto zeigt eine Schwarze Frau in aufrechter, selbstbewusster Haltung auf einem prunkvollen, leuchtend gelben Sessel. Sie trägt ein asymmetrisches Oberteil in Rot- und Rosatönen, kombiniert mit einer dunklen Hose, vor einer opulenten Kulisse mit goldenen Wandverzierungen und dunklem Holz. Der linke Arm ist ärmellos.

The cover of the German magazine "ZEIT Geschichte" ("TIME History") on the topic "250 Years of the USA" could not be any more tame. As if there were no alternatives! #America250 #USHistory #Media #Cartoons

The cover of the magazine "ZEIT Geschichte" ("ZEIT History") shows the first US President George Washington on the left and Donald Trump on the right, both looking serious and concerned, with the New York Statue of Liberty behind them on a blue background. The imagery visualizes the cover story "250 Years of the USA: The Birth of the United States – and the Attack on the Legacy of the Founding Fathers".

An editorial cartoon titled "Me, me, me" by Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Nick Anderson, published on his Substack in July 2026, depicts a giant birthday cake opening up as Donald Trump leaps out as a bizarre surprise attraction, wearing a stripper outfit and a sash that reads "ME." On the ground, Uncle Sam, symbolizing the United States, looks up In absolute horror and screams, "AAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

This political cartoon by Morten Morland was published in The Times on July 4, 2025, just before US Independence Day. It features a caricatured Donald Trump trampling on the Declaration of Independence while declaring independence "from the tyranny of checks and balances" to the shock of the Founding Fathers.

Am 3./4. Juli 1926 traf sich die nicht mehr verbotene NSDAP in Weimar, gründete die HJ und plante die legale Machteroberung. Am 4./5. Juli 2026 trifft sich die bisher unverbotene AfD in Erfurt, eingeladen von Björn Höcke. Zufall? Einige sind anderer Meinung: www.zusammenstehen.org

Titelseite des NSDAP-Organgs "Der Illustrierte Benachter" vom Juli 1926 zum "Tag in Weimar: 3./4. Juli 1926". Eine Fotomontage zeigt Adolf Hitler im Vordergrund vor aufmarschierenden SA-Massen mit Hakenkreuzfahnen als visuelle Inszenierung von Macht und Gefolgschaft.
