Tuesday Cartoons: Exhausted

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin?TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

It needs to be said that by rebranding Charlie Kirk's views as moderate by both right wingers and liberal cowards resets the extremist views he held as normal and pushes the Overton window to the far right

New from me — There’s been a lot of ink spilled since Charlie Kirk's murder about the "right" way to honor his death. Getting liberals fired from their jobs and forcing devoted civil servants to resign in disgust couldn’t be a more fitting tribute to his life.

      Robert Redford: President Trump’s dictator-like administration is attacking the values America holds dear

      This monarchy in disguise has been so exhausting and chaotic, it’s not in the least bit surprising so many citizens are disillusioned.

      By Robert Redford

      We’re up against a crisis I never thought I’d see in my lifetime: a dictator-like attack by President Donald Trump on everything this country stands for. As last week’s impeachment hearings made clear, our shared tolerance and respect for the truth, our sacred rule of law, our essential freedom of the press and our precious freedoms of speech — all have been threatened by a single man.

      It’s time for Trump to go — along with those in Congress who have chosen party loyalty over their oath to “solemnly affirm” their support for the Constitution of the United States. And it’s up to us to make that happen, through the power of our votes.

      When Trump was elected, though he was not my choice, I honestly thought it only fair to give the guy a chance. And like many others, I did. But almost instantly he began to disappoint and then alarm me. I don’t think I’m alon

      Tonight it pains me to watch what is happening to our country. Growing up as a child during World War II, I watched a united America defend itself against the threat of fascism. I watched this again, during the Watergate crisis, when our democracy was threatened. And again, when terrorists turned our world upside down.

      During those times of crises, Congress came together, and our leaders came together. Politicians from both sides rose to defend our founding principles and the values that make us a global leader and a philosophical beacon of hope for all those seeking their own freedoms.

      What is happening, right now, is so deeply disturbing that instead of the United States of America, we are now defined as the Divided States of America. Leaders on both sides lack the fundamental courage to cross political aisles on behalf of what is good for the American people.

    Time for Dementia Don to retire. He’s so out of it, he can’t possibly be be worth the trouble he makes. The press has to see this. He’s worse than ever about just spouting nonsense.

    FBI Director Patel testifies on Capitol Hill amid questions over his leadership

    FBI Director Kash Patel is testifying before senators Tuesday morning as he faces growing questions about his ability to lead the nation’s premier law enforcement agency.

    Patel’s appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee was put on the books weeks ago, but comes at a delicate time for the director, who is a loyalist of President Trump but has no experience leading an organization like the FBI.

    In just the past week, he has come under criticism for his social media posts and actions during the manhunt for the man who killed conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He’s also been sued by three former senior FBI officials who allege that he fired them for improper political reasons.

    Trey Reed was found hanging from a tree.Let me repeat that. He was Found Hanging From A Tree.In Mississippi. In the state that lynched more Black people than ANY OTHER STATE IN THE COUNTRY. And police have the audacity to summarily conclude “no foul play.”It’s just as horrific that we don’t have a competent DOJ to independently investigate this. My God. Horrific. Just horrific.

    🚨BIG NEWS: Republicans just quietly added a line to a defense bill that would empower the Pentagon and Pete Hegseth to deploy armed private mercenaries inside the U.S. at the southern border for the first time in American history.
