Jen Sorensen for May 17, 2022

As Qultservatives drag the center evermore towards the right.

America had a good 246 year run!! It’s a shame it must come to a sudden end!! Better “luck” – next time!!

:-O

Works for daily life. How many people wait for hottest day before they buy an A/C? Then there is the run on snow shovels. Where do they go over the spring, summer and fall that people need to buy new ones each winter. Don’t they think it will snow again? Or summer will be hot? Or the most rational answer, they don’t think!

Ms Sorensen, an excellent strip today. Sadly, it is also very true

This is too true.

The US future looks like Russia present. The heartbreak is that we are all watching it.

Yes Canada should be nervous. Putin invaded Ukraine’s Donbas to unite the ethnic Russians that lived there. (His stated goal even it if is crap)

When large number of Americans move to Ontario or British Colombia after the establishment of the American dictatorship, I suspect that President for Life Josh Hawley will want to do the same, based on the idea of “Reuniting Americans”

That’s the actual minute and a half of news at the top of the hour. And now, back to our regular programming. But first this four minutes of ‘messages from our sponsors’.

Former President Donald Trump is back on Twitter.

His messages from his own operation, Truth Social, are now being posted under the new Twitter profile “President Donald J. Trump’s Truth Social Posts.”

The hateful racist republicans can continue to destroy American democracy for their dictator.

Too many respectable people expect that reason will prevail. Those people must shake off inertia and go to the polls. Minority rule is not a viable system.

Another demonstration of the effectiveness of Fox “news” and the right wing media apparatus.

.

It’s adherents fight like hell to allow guns in the hands of mentally ill and to prevent billionaire oligarchs and patriotic multinational corporations from paying taxes.

.

And they believe the population of the U.S. is divided into Real Americans and Those People.

Another definition of insanity.

I dunno. I was born in 1946. I’ve been watching the vision of America I was raised on being systematically destroyed. People used to pay lip service to American ideals. Now they say that things like “liberty and justice for all” are wrong.

That’s because emotional self-interest has replaced principled thinking.

The scourge of seeing reality?

Sometimes cartoons are perfect. This is one of those times.

I wish Americans would wake up enough to save their own country.
