His royal Trumpiness
The dark tunnel in front of us…
While I’m under the weather I’ll post this from a few weeks ago, since it expresses my feeling where this country is going. Really hope I’m wrong.
If you haven’t read, now might be a good time…
…and if you have, a re-read is in order. I’m planning to.
(That’s the changed version I created right after the election results on 11/9; you can find the original title here)
It Just Happened Here. President Trump
In August I drew this graphic essay for The Washington Post, which ran both online and in print.
And now, the Trump Presidency. How did we get here?
It’s Election Day
Get out and vote, you Nasty Women.
Some 2016 election catch up….
As most of you can identify with, it’s been a crazy election season and I’ve let my website fall behind. Here’s a few recent cartoons but head over to the Washington Post and take a look at the last couple of months on my author’s page (disregard that one from 2014 which insists on staying in the loop)
Sketches of the GOP Cleveland convention
The crazy Republican gathering of bread and circuses is over. Family Trump continues its promotional tour, Senator Cruz commits political suicide, and Angry White Men continue to yell. You can find all the live sketches here, here, and here.
Canadian & US cartoonists on The Zoomer
Last May I headed off to Toronto to attend the Association of Canadian Cartoonists convention and spend time with some of my favorite colleagues and friends. While there a small group of us appeared on The Zoomer to talk shop and show our work. Conrad Black (yes, that Conrad Black) is a regular participate on the network and also a frequent target of my Canadian colleagues over the years, as you’ll hear about in the interview. Terry Mosher (aka Aislin), a longtime friend, from the Montreal Gazette gives some great insights and of course wonderful quips.
Social media and the Cruz cartoon controversy
I had always planned to write about the controversy over my Cruz cartoon last year but wanted to wait for a while to really think about the role social media played in it. I hoped the Columbia Journalism Review would consider publishing my piece and was so pleased when then CJR editor Liz Spayd agreed to take it on. Thank you also to current CJR editor Vanessa Gezari and Maralee Schwartz for their expertise and guidance; they were a pleasure to work with.

Supreme Court bobbleheads
Trump is an opportunist; we are the problem
We have met the enemy and-with the help of a celebrity focused news media- he is us.
