Thursday Political Cartoons: Year of the Fire Whores

Wow, there is some shit going on regarding Iran:

It needs to be said clearly that it would be absolutely insane for the United States to start a war of aggression against Iran. If anyone thinks that Trump gives a rip about democracy or human rights you are kidding yourself. It’ll be another campaign of domination and plunder.

Here is a thread to check out:

Trump officials say there's a 90% chance of strikes on Iran. He can’t without Congress. Rep. Thomas Massie & I have a War Powers Resolution to debate & vote on war before putting U.S. troops in harm’s way. I will make a motion to discharge to force a vote on it next week.

Tuesday Political Cartoons: Goodbye Boo

What a joy to say I lived my life when Robert Duvall was performing his art…the man was truly an amazing actor.

“Mr. Duvall’s singular trait was to immerse himself in roles so deeply that he seemed to almost disappear into them — an ability that was “uncanny, even creepy the first time” it was witnessed …” #RIP #RobertDuvall http://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/m…

"Actors click into character at different times — the first week, third week. Bobby's hot after one or two takes.” — Francis CoppolaFarewell to Robert Duvall (1931-2026)www.pbs.org/newshour/art… #FilmSky #RobertDuvall

Can’t be said lightly. Robert Duvall was a titan of movie actors. The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, Network, The Great Santini, Lonesome Dove… just a sampling of all the films he was in. Commanded the screen every time.

***Added Note***

After this post was written, just before it was scheduled to be published I found out about the death of Jesse Jackson…

The US civil rights leader Jesse Jackson, a pioneer of progressive Democratic politics, close ally of Martin Luther King Jr, and two-time candidate for the presidential nomination, has died at 84.See his life in pictures: bit.ly/3OxOT3f

Guardian US (@us.theguardian.com) 2026-02-17T12:30:56.324Z

I will post some links below. This is a huge loss for us as a nation. I don’t know quite how to say this, but it just seems like there was more vocal outrage years ago. Maybe it is because I just remember the powerful speeches from men like Jesse Jackson. It seemed like he was always there, everywhere…whenever there was injustice. And he spoke out! It wasn’t just a few words written in a tweet…and sent from wherever. Jesse Jackson went there…wherever the problem was and spoke out with the people in support. I just think that his on scene action of demonstration and protest, the act of showing up and being there…made a huge difference. And I feel that it is what is missing in the situation right now.

We sit and wait to hear from leaders like Obama and Harris and AOC and (I honestly can’t think of other people…my dementia has gotten to the point that yesterday I forgot how to spell my last name!) But back then there was a force of people who would always show up and make good trouble. (Powerful people is what I’m talking about…) Maybe I’m not making any sense. I’m just fucking tired of seeing everything go to shit.

Jesse Jackson, the nation’s most influential Black figure in the years between the civil rights crusades of MLK & the election of Obama, died Tuesday at 84.His family said in a statement that he “died peacefully”.RIP, Mr. Jackson. Heaven has gained another warrior.#USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

thinking about the conversation I had with Jesse Jackson in 2019: "The truth of slavery—that Africans subsidized America’s wealth—that truth will not go away. It’s buried right now, but as each generation becomes much more serious, it will be grappled with." http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

Even as Rev. Jesse Jackson has died, his afterlife has begun through us. Through our undying struggle against racism. Through our eternal organizing of rainbow coalitions against resurgent ethnostates. Through our everlasting striving to “Keep Hope Alive!” Rest peacefully, Rev. Jackson. 🕊️💔

"Our father was a servant leader — not only to our family, but to the oppressed, the voiceless, and the overlooked around the world," the Jackson family said in a statement. "We shared him with the world, and in return, the world became part of our extended family."Rest in peace#Pinks

Thursday Political Cartoons: Bondi Bitch

It’s another day in paradise…

BONDI: You didn't ask Merrick Garland anything about EpsteinBALINT: Weak sauce BONDI: And with this antisemitic culture right now, she voted against a resolution–BALINT: You want to go there! Really? Talking about antisemitism to a woman who lost her grandfather in the Holocaust! *storms off*

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-02-11T19:04:08.020Z

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity. America deserves better.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (@crockett.house.gov) 2026-02-11T21:14:29.447Z

holy shit — Bondi's new tactic is refusing to answer Democratic questions, then using time during the next Republican questioner to smear the previous Democratic member and accuse them of being complicit in violence crimes
