I’m so sorry, Scottie; I haven’t gotten comics read all week, but here it is in the same week it went up, anyway! Apologies also to any other reader who missed this so far this week. I’ll try to do better!

+ A Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal!

Leave it to Donald Trump to have to be taught about checks and balances by a king.
Donald Trump is enamored of King Charles and the British monarchy, even while disliking the British government. Donald Trump is envious because he wants to be a king. For most people, being president would be enough. (snip-MORE)

You might remember last year the documentary Iโm involved in,ย Democracy Under Siege, was having trouble finding a U.S. distributor although it was received enthusiastically overseas. Well, weโre going rogue and hereโs your opportunity to watch it for free from May 1-4. Sign upย here.
* Also, Laura Nix and I will be speaking with the satirist and free speech defenderย Andy Borowitzย on his podcast May 3rd. Donโt miss it!

The Secret Service has been praised endlessly for the job they did Saturday night, protecting Donald Trump. They did everything they could to make the ballroom at the Washington Hilton a safe space for Trump, and you must admit, they succeeded. Not one comedian got into the room.
What? Did you think I was talking about a shooter? (snip-MORE)

*** Personal note.ย Almost did not make the deadline on this one.ย I was running on fumes as I am finishing this.ย Then instead of eating supper I am going to bed.ย Thank you for reading / enjoying / or even if you wish commenting.ย On that note.ย Rather than getting to comments which I will do someday, I am focusing all my energy on doing these cartoons / memes / news posts.ย I hope to be able to do more soon.ย I love the comments and will some day when sitting in my desk chair is not so painful and there are not so many other things I need to get done, I will reply to them, even if they are far too old to matter to anyone.ย Hugs and loves.ย ***ย Scottie

Sharing the picture of a happy trans women gives you the vitamins and nutrients you need to fight back against bigotry all day long.





















Amazing how his ear has healed with no trace of a bullet wound.ย Remember how his cult wore fake bandages to show support for their dear leader.

A preview from my new book :ย https://goo.gl/XVFl8s

The Justice Department (DOJ) going after the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is another case where the Trump regime is going after its enemies. An enemy of hate groups, as SPLC is, is an enemy of the Trump regime.
SPLC has now been indicted on 11 counts, but remember where those indictments of James Comey and Letitia James went, straight into the trash. Donald Trump’s DOJ couldn’t obtain an indictment against the guy who threw a sandwich at Border Patrol agents. The DOJ just dropped its bogus case against Jerome Powell.
And remember the person in charge of the Justice Department is Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, who is angling to get the job permanently, or at least until Trumpโs next mood swing, and he fires the Attorney General to replace him with Greg Gutfeld.

I think the mentalist who was scheduled to host last nightโs White House Correspondentsโ Dinner should have received combat pay. Not because of an assassination attempt, but for having to roam through Donald Trump’s empty head.
I don’t believe last night’s assassination attempt was staged or fake. I do believe there was a serious assassination attempt at last night’s WHCD dinner. I don’t want to jump into the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories. But from what we know at this point, the assassination attempt may not have been on Trump’s life, but maybe just on any cabinet memberโs life that the attempted shooter could’ve found, or at least that’s how it sounds from the bits of his manifesto. I have read.
I do believe it was extremely shitty for Donald Trump to use the assassination attempt as an argument for his stupid illegal ballroom that is currently being held up by a court.

Iโm infuriated by what Melania Trump tweeted today:

As a naturalized citizen and editorial cartoonist who has seen colleagues from around the world targeted, jailed, and even murdered for creating satire, I value our First Amendment. The First Lady, who is also an immigrant, should realize the importance of free speech and a free press but she lives in an entitled world and like her husband, is trying to control the news media to silence her critics. She is undermining the foundations of a democracy and is just as miserable a human being as her husband.


Donald Trump has been falling asleep during meetings lately. He’s fallen asleep during cabinet meetings, and here at the 26-minute mark, you can see that he falls asleep twice during a meeting about healthcare last week.
Tell me that he’s not falling asleep and instead is doing some deep thinking or is meditating. Yeah, I didn’t think so either.
Yesterday, I told you that I do not believe the assassination attempt was fake or staged. It’s not that I don’t believe the goons and the Trump regime would try that. It’s because I don’t believe these idiots could pull it off.
I hate this would-be assassin. First, he ruined my Saturday night. I had planned to clock out and go through at least a couple of the movies on my Netflix watchlist. Instead, I watched CNN all evening. Yeah, I’m a news buff, but I think it’s important to turn off sometimes, which I try to do on Saturdays and Sundays. I mean, I start the mornings with news programs and maybe through the middle of the day. But by late afternoon, I just want to turn all that shit off and not think about politics and, most importantly, not think about Donald Trump. This would-be assassin took my Saturday away from me.
