The progressive comic about Trump going full fascist on the backs of immigrant children

The Irony Throne

I posted a 7-year-old cartoon on this site Wednesday about Trump gutting the free press. Today I learned that at just about the same time I posted it Trump demanded that a bill designed to protect the informational pipelines on which journalists rely be voted down.

(Ahhhh, but her laptop.)

This particular bill sailed through the Republican-led House almost unanimously but Trump demanded it be killed by his fellow apparatchiks in the Senate.

For those interested the bill is called "Protect Reporters From Exploitative State Spying Act". One has to gently stroke one's chin and wonder why we would the free press need something like that at this exact moment in our nation's history?

Hmmmmmmmm.

The Grate State of Texas, my home Lebensraum, is offering Trump a huge patch of ranchland for his new concentration, uh, I mean, immigrant detention camp.

With that in mind I'd like to propose a couple of names for the new facilities:

Austinschwitz

Texblinka

-----------------

Should a twice-divorced man who's already impregnated his soon-to-be third wife, who sexually assaults a married woman in a hotel room and subsequently pays her for her silence on the matter so that he won't lose his vital and complicated job of holding down his section of a couch on a propaganda network, be the next Secretary of Defense?

Yes, this is a stupid question, but we have a really stupid president who was elected by really stupid people.

Last week I was at Lowes checking out the new 2025 gutters when a young guy with a clipboard approached me, attempting to get me to switch my electricity provider. I kept politely saying no, no, and no until he reached down deep for what he thought was The Big Gun:

"We'll give you a free Tesla battery pack!"

I proceeded to say some very unflattering things about Elonia Musk that he'd apparently never heard. We parted amicably but I still had much to do in the hardware department and noticed that every time I inevitably crossed his path he had a sudden and intense desire to study his shoes.

This Retread-O-Matic comic is from June 26, 2018. Thanks to everyone who's still visiting the site while I flush the old political septic tank.
