Monday Cartoon Sub: Ugh!

Posted: August 24, 2026 | Author: | Filed under: just because | 5 Comments

I’m sure if a comic image could illustrate what Dakinikat looks like today…it would be this picture up top.

You all got me, JJ, filling in for Dak. Since some city truck came down her street and completely wiped out her internet hardwire connection.

So bear with me as this post will be a bit wonky…and on the thin side.

First up, this tidbit from Meidas Touch. That shows all the insider trading Trump has done lately:

Trump reported 1,051 trades in his June disclosure. These two stood out:— June 18: Bought $250K–$500K in Boeing, the same day the Navy awarded Boeing an $880 million contract— June 23: Bought $15K–$50K in SpaceX, the same day NASA recorded a $425.6 million award to SpaceX

It is exasperating to see this shit and nothing is being done.

Oh no wait, didn’t Jeffries and Kushner get together recently to discuss some things? Yeah what was that shit all about?

So true. What the fuck?

A few other maddening things going on…

Have you seen the latest Halloween Costume from Target:

How the fuck did that get past the buyers? That’s a rhetorical question.

This next subject has been going on for years. Especially in my part of the country.

Here is the same video only in a BlueSky link, in case you have trouble with the Instagram embed:

Something is seriously wrong. D.L. Hughley asks the question nobody wants to answer: "Who the fuck is hanging these kids?"

I think there have been at least 4 black men found hanging in north Georgia. All “suicides” …which is bullshit. Yeah these guys are going to drive up to a pretty much white KKK town and hang themselves.

This article is from 2020:

During the era when we now recognize that black people were being lynched, many of those lynchings were officially declared suicides. Historical context is critical. http://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020…

I will try to get a gift link to that wapo post, and put it in the comments below.

Hanging? We need to call this what it is: LYNCHING. Ten Black Americans in less than two years.Every one of these deaths deserves answers, transparency, and scrutiny. No one should look at these images and expect Black Americans to shrug this off, especially in light of our history.

Repost: @atlblackstar Roanoke Rapids police say they are treating the death of 38-year-old Demetrius Fleming as an open investigation and have not reached any conclusions about what happened.

In an emotional message, Fleming’s daughter thanked supporters for their prayers and generosity but urged people to stop spreading assumptions online until the autopsy is complete, saying she doesn’t want speculation to overshadow the facts.

She also asked people to continue sharing the family’s GoFundMe and keep them in their prayers.

And a side note. We have reached a point where there are people doing public service announcements on informing us about the difference between horse meat and beef:

And by the way:

If China doesn’t want that meat…ewww!

So, this cartoon from Pat Bagley is so on point…I had to highlight it at the top.

These days, it’s the political cartoonists who are making the most of their space that is given them in the media forum.

Take a look at these cartoons, some from Cagle:

A federal judge just did what no judge has since Roe fell: found a constitutional right to abortion…when her health is on the line. Idaho CAN’T prosecute those doctors. AG Labrador’s appealing…of course.

These gloves don't cause neuromuscular incapacitation the way that a taser does. In fact, they only work when applied directly to bare skin.These aren't made for apprehending anyone. These have one and only one use: causing extreme pain to already-restrained captives.In plain language: torture.

Oh yeah…and this:
