Healing can only happen when we all see and admit the causality between ignoring facts, truth and reality and the damage that was done to American institutions and human lives on Jan, 6th, 2021.
Right wing extremists talking about how divisive the impeachment is: Exactly like an abuser telling their spouse that calling the cops or walking out means it’s their fault the marriage is failing.
Excellent strip!!!!. No mention of “healing” by the Republicans until they are in trouble and literally over a barrel. Easy to want healing when your party is being torn apart. No time to heal it’s a time to prosecute & punish appalling behaviour.
Thank you Lalo. This ‘toon needs to be the response to the Rs who ask why the rest of the country isn’t just accepting them. Not that Varvel, Benson, Lester….are ever going to ask.
The country does not owe Republicans’ a free ride and universal forgiveness in the name of healing. That was tried after Nixon and Watergate, Reagan and Iran-Contra and Bush and Iraq. Time to hold the Rs accountable for their bad acts and poor choices.
Healing requires accountability. Of Trump, and his GOP enablers who promoted his lies, and who still do.-By by their hypocrisy, accountability is a burden for others to bear, not themselves.
Republicans always call for healing when their ass is in a bind. But this time they’re right, we do need healing. That healing should come through identifying those who attempted to violate or work around the constitution, reinforcing the rule of law by putting them on trial, and if found guilty dealing out the appropriate punishment. And part of that punishment should be baring those people from ever holding public office in this country again.
No healing without accountability and punishment for the crimes committed. Including the reconnaissance tours given by the GOP congress critters and their staffs. Those traitors should be expelled, tried and incarcerated.
Trump has called in The Pillow Man for his advice on declaring Martial Law. No Joke. He’s also back to getting advice from Steve Bannon at the last minute. Seriously. Trump becomes more pathetic every minute with 5 days left.
And the most amazing thing is that the “person” headlining the healing scam is the same person that lead the impeachment of another President for having consensual sex with a member of the opposite sex. The Republicans like to say they impeached Bill Clinton for lying to Congress but the truth is they had no right to be grilling him on anything that is not a crime and if a Republican had made the same lie they would have said “he was defending the ladies honor”. They were, and probably still are, jealous. Note the deafening silence from the same people over Trump being charged with rape and sexual assault, and for lying dozens of times to Congress. Come Judgement day I would love to be a fly on the wall as Graham is reminded that Jesus teaching honesty, integrity and love (all of which Graham lacks) and that Jesus said there is no place in heaven for those who hate — that includes those who preach and promote hate — and that he promised God that he would protect the constitution. The hours long listing of his hates, jealousies and breaches of the constitution will be followed by God saying “there is not, was not, and never will be, any place in heaven for the likes of you”.

Not quite true. Uncle Sam should have black eyes, some teeth knocked out and the hat should be battered and torn.

You can’t begin to heal until the cancer is cut out.
Leave it in, and it will metastasize to all your systems until you’re dead.

You want healing?!! Tell that to the families of the two LEO’s that died as a result of the insurrection!! What a bunch of eejits!!

no, no healing until i see some real results. I do not forgive. I do not forget, I do not trust, I do not believe any one with a GOP association.

Want healing Republicans? Vote yes to impeach.

147 Republicans just voted to overturn the election. Maybe the healing should have started there.

I’m not the first to say it, and I won’t be the last, but you heal a cancer with surgery, chemo, and radiation.
And it takes years.

Healing starts by holding people accountable for their actions. Including politicians that conspire with deadly domestic terrorists.

Healing will only happen after the agitators are silenced. That “Free Speech” thing America touts is proving to be a major impediment.

They are a cancer. You don’t just decide to heal with the cancer in place. First it must be cut out for the body to begin to heal.

The Same people that whine about Justice suddenly want healing?
Healing can only come AFTER Justice mandates Prison terms.

“Healing” as in letting it slide the deaths, murders, promoting an attack on Congress and to overturn an election Trump lost.
