Gary Varvel for September 15, 2021

The Q-anon Qonservative cartoonists have been out in force this past couple of weeks. They whine about anything imaginable. Tax hikes for billionaires who otherwise pay nothing, inflation that is world wide due to the after effects of the pandemic that their side actively tries to worsen, vax mandates that could actually end this godforsaken pandemic, Afghan disaster that they offer no better way it could have been done (every “solution” so far presented that I’m aware of that most likely would have led to even worse outcomes), gas prices that come from massively increased demand, trillions in spending long overdue by decades and partially paid for by ending stupid wars, and arms for the Taliban who cannot drive or fly those arms to our shores (maybe a concern for the Uzbeks(?)). I’m sick and tired of these childish propaganda arguments that even most children can see through.

Another ultra rich billionaire cartoonist who is afraid of being taxed.

Now, let’s see pictured several Republican “hotties” wearing See-Through dresses as were worn at the recent Met Gala. Instead of nubile buff bods, thus would be revealed on their porcine physiques multiple garish tattoos of Conservative big business sponsors to which they are beholden — sort of like the crowd of logos on fire suits of race car drivers … but on their bare hides.

But he loves Drumph!! Unreal!

Anybody who could afford tickets for the gala and a designer gown qualifies as rich in my book. That’s a year’s salary for most, spent on narcissistic preening by those living in glass houses.

One word missing from Biden’s dress is Communism.

“Arming the Taliban”? We armed them in the 80s when Reagan was president. Cartoonists have such short memories.

When this happened:

The response was:

Nothing.

Gary- you got trolled and took the bait. Sad for you. Turns you into the joke- again.

Doesn’t look like Millenia. Maybe, why yes, it is, Gary Varvel and his dress of mis-statements!

No, I think they’ll love him if he keeps putting out their B.S.

I am insulted. The insinuation that Biden is a GIRL, (a metaphor for weak and frivolous) is mind- bendingly obnoxious!

taxes are what we pay for a civilized world

It’s hard to believe that Varvel, along with a lot of the Right, is that stupid.

“arming the Taliban” – It was the Afgan military that armed them. Where did they go after dropping the gear and running?

AOC wears it better.

Good portrayal of the Democrats’ hypocrisy and policies. Good toon.

Varvel presents a fashion ensemble of Trump Disciples’ very finest LIES.

Accessories with other LIES are being designed and assembled for future shows.

Dementia Joe is always good for a laugh.

Our border has been closed since January, 2021.

We have no tax hikes yet, but had tax cuts for the wealthy under tRump/McConnell. Biden proposes we tax the wealthy at least as much as those who work at McDonald’s.

The recession and subsequent inflation were made by tRump when he failed to act against the virus, as the markets said at the time. The Saudis announced this past February that they were raising prices to make up for the 40% loss in profit in 2020 due to COVID-19.

tRump surrendered Afghanistan to the Taliban in February 2020.

No one left.As tRump’s surrender date of May 1st approached,

No one left.

Summer came and some Americans actually sent their kids, pre-school through high school to Afghanistan on a student exchange.

No one left.

President Biden extended the exit date to August 31st and abandoned the military airport.

No one left.

The Taliban took territories and cities across Afghanistan.

No one left.

As the Taliban approached Kabul,

No one left.

When the Taliban took Kabul in 11 days there was a mad rush to the airport causing chaos. Biden got control of that chaos in 48 hours. When no one thought we could get everyone out, Biden gave the order, our military went to work, and all but under 100 Americans who wanted to leave were flown out, along with some 150,000 Afghans that had supported us by August 31st. Since then, some have changed their mind and we have gotten them out.

None of the heavy weapons the Afghan military dropped and ran away from are operable. Any that have a chip were made inoperable through our satellite systems. All U.S. military equipment are made this way, even that which we sell or give to our allies. That’s why you don’t see the Taliban in tanks or planes, and why the Israelis buy planes from France.

I guess this is one of those things the reader has apply personal confirmation bias and self delusion because it certainly doesn’t make any point by itself.

Throw everything at the wall to see what sticks. Totally ignore the madman who preceded Biden who created most of the mess Biden it trying to fix.

TAX THE RICH, they have all the money.

I don’t know where this guy has been hiding, but gas prices go up every summer.

Remember when Reagan taxed the middle class and Social Security to pay for tax cuts and rich people? The republicans like to keep the USA broke so they can say there is no money for social programs like Public Health.

Trumps Dress would be : Everything I say is a Lie and Bullsh*t

Another piece of trash from Varvel … Did he retire or did the ‘Indy Star’ dump him?

This crap from a cartoonist who evidently considers the former guy a good POTUS? Ye gods.

Varvel’s way of showing how twisted his imagination really is…

Marxist Disciple Democrats enjoys, supports and justifies Puppet Biden’s failures.

Hah. Cred to Varvel for a reference to AOC’s dress. But that’s the ONLY credit due here. Natch. Because unlike her dress, which was aspirational (“Tax the rich”) this is just lies.

Well, Vapid Varvel covers pretty much all of the false memes the right-wing Screaming heads still whine about.

Open Border? Citation required.

Tax hikes? For the idle rich parasites that haven’t paid their fair share of the tax burden since Ronnie Ray-Gun Destroyed American Prosperity and the Balance of the Economy? You bet! For everyone else, MUCH LOWER Taxes!

Vax Mandate? And that is bad how? It forces the irresponsible pricks that are keeping America locked in this health disaster to stop oppressing everyone else’s rights, freedoms and liberties to interact safely with society and get society going again.

Inflation?How is that Biden’s fault? He’s still working with the Mango Meathead’s horrific economy, and Inflation is caused by Corporations constantly unnecessarily increasing the profit margins to support their parasitic Executive Class and their lazy, useless Stockholders. The power to stop inflation is not in Biden’s hands — it’s in the hands of the CFOs of every large company in America

Afghan Disaster?Considering it was the Mango Meathead’s plan that Biden was forced to follow, compounded by Dolt45 setting free over 5000 Taliban Fighters and Leaders the US had in custody without ever informing the Afghani government, how is Biden, in any way responsible for that? The only thing that WAS Biden’s doing was doing the one and only thing he could alter about the Tangerine Terror’s plan and slow down the timetable, resulting in there being no American casualties during the withdrawal.

Trillions in Spending?And? We NEEDED that spending, desperately, and unlike all spending that the Moronic Right ever does, Democratic Spending always pays for itself in the long run, rather than adding to the Debt or the Deficit. How about the Hundreds of Billions in spending that the Fat Fraud did, which helped no one but the top 0.1% of American Income Earners, hmm?

Varvel…Just inaccurate on so many levels. How about trying tooning with at least a touch of integrity?

Best comic of the month. Well done, Gary. Congrats!

The border is not more or less open than its ever been.

Making the rich pay taxes is not a tax hike, unlike trumps tax bill which raised taxes on the lowest incomes.

Inflation is not happening, it is just another buzz word from the right to scare people.

There have been vaccine mandates for decades, nothing new.

Afghan disaster? See 2001 and the Cheney/Bush presidency. Biden ended it with fewer deaths than happen in any major city in a day from gun violence.

Gas prices? Still half what they were during the GWB era. And nothing he has control over.

Trillions in spending? Even if the 3.5 trillion dollar infrastructure bill passes, it is spread out over 10 years. That’s $350 billion a year. The militaries budget for 2020 was $785 billion for that year alone.

Arming the Taliban? Have they not been armed up to this point? Then how have they been winning?

Keep trying Gary, maybe you will get one right.

I see that Gary has a Joe fetish.

Great one today! Sleepy looks just as stupid as AOC.
