Our roving death squads claiming the purity of white nationalist to remove the dark ones. Not who we are as a nation.

Actually, this IS who we are, taken as a whole. The majority of votes cast in 2024 (49.8 percent) were for Trump and his policies (Source: https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/statistics/elections/2024). If we don't show up at the polls in sufficiently large numbers in November to take the House AND the Senate, or prevent Trump and his thugs (some wear body armor, some wear suits) from stealing that election (he’s planning to set the stage on Thursday with a speech, it is rumored, that will PROVE the 2020 election was stolen by Team Harris), the last two years (we HOPE) of Trump’s reign could make the first two look like a walk in the park.

Well, he can't prove something that isn't true! And he, nor anyone else has ever provided a scintilla of EVIDENCE to show there was voter fraud in 2020. Additionally, thanks for encouraging U.S. to vote this November, but just to add a little more encouragement ... while 49.8% of those who were able to, and did vote on 05nov2024 voted for the convict, 50.2% did not vote for the liar. Perhaps more significantly, when factoring in the 89million of U.S. who didn't (or couldn't) vote, it means that nearly 68% of U.S. didn't vote for the treasonous liar. (Of the total, 244m potential voters, 77.3m voted for the liar, 75m for Kamala, 2.88m voted for "other". 166.7m didn't, couldn't or otherwise experienced effective voter manipulation, voter suppression, or potentially didn't have their vote counted due to data manipulation.) The Big Lie is intended to provoke U.S. not to vote. (Look to the Brennan Center for Justice, and Timothy Snyder for excellent talking points regarding "The Big Lie" when encouraging oneself, and others not to believe it, or get discouraged into not voting!)

Good analysis, and I agree that even Trump's reptilian brain grasps he might be looking at a large blue wave, and that "The Big Lie Mark 2026" is meant to discourage voting. BUT,... I fear he's willing to do that and worse, such as sending ICE goons to polling places to "make sure there's no fraud" (and to intimidate any non-whites or anyone wearing "No Kings" t-shirts). He's already trying hard to kill mail-in voting. Gotta make sure no pet-eating illegals from Haiti are sending in a thousand fake ballots each, y'know...

One more thought re. "Well, he can't prove something that isn't true!": I'm fairly well convinced he actually believes he won... He's nuts, after all,... and he's surrounded himself with poisonous vipers who know he lost but see an opportunity to take, and keep, full control of what used to be our democracy ("Yesssss, your Highnessss, the 2020 election was sssssstolen, but we're going to help you find (or invent) proof and make Kamala Harrisssss and her gang pay!!"

(The compromised, corporate "corpse" media will also help enable "The Big Lie" -- time to boycott the bastards, support and defend the many, credible veteran independent outlets, and the up and comers like Meidas, and Parnas Perspective.) Some additional resource in re: The Big Lie -- https://protectdemocracy.org/work/what-is-the-big-lie/

Please don't overlook David Pakman. He is solid, and far less excitable than Ben Meiselas. Sometimes Meidas strikes me as over the top, and ever since 2015 and the golden s̸h̸o̸w̸e̸r̸ escalator, I have reached a stage where I trust very, very little. from anyone (no offense meant).

As we saw with the Alex Pretti murder, some of them are brown.

Not who we WANT TO BE as a nation. Unfortunately, racism and oppression are the nasty side of American history, and they go way back to the founding and before. We can't excise these cancers till we deal with them honestly, however. Not enough people have the stomach for that, yet.

ICE = Gestapo

Selene Kurland's avatar

Chilling drawing but, unfortunately, true. How did we come to this place in America? It breaks my heart.

Kristen Tikkanen's avatar

Illegal and Criminal Enterprise = ICE 🧊 Love the gloves, full-face cover, hats pulled down low...and the distress flag! Accurate depiction, Ann!

MJ Henry's avatar

For a second I thought they had buckets on their heads. Ah, yes. That would make them ICE buckets. 🧊🪣

Down with the Executioner in Chief.

The upside-down flag has a different meaning for these thugs.

Thank you, Ann. More than enough fodder for you to capture with your artistry....

Only in the United States of America, Chapter 137:

Mask-wearing political thugs kill innocent people at their leisure with full support of the Oval Office.

Mask-wearing citizens, trying to avoid spreading a deadly virus, are ridiculed and demonized.

Sharon Herrick's avatar

I wonder how you do it. How you keep up this important work. These ICE shootings---the killings, the arrests, the concentration camps, the blase bonkers Criminal-in-chief---some days it's just too damn much. No wonder his Effluency is trying to fortify the White House, building himself a bunker and fencing the place off. As dense as he is, he may be beginning to suspect the level of outrage he's provoking. Or not. Thank you, Ann, for being so intrepid. Thank you for the truth.

😭🤮🤬💔. When will this nightmare 😱 end?!

Please, fat lady, SING!!!

Thanks for another spot on 🎯cartoon, Ann❣️

Larry Arnold's avatar

A triad of masked douche bags, it can only get worse!

Don G's avatar

Two almost simultaneous announcements from the pig. The first as depicted by Ann, that it’s ok for criminal thugs to kill innocent people in our streets. The second is to support The Pillow Man for governor of Minnesota. Truly the ravings of a stark raving lunatic.

DonP's avatar

Because Trump doesn't care what happens to non-White people. Nor to White people who don't agree with or worship him.

Phil's avatar

An accurate depiction of our current grim state of affairs. Next; Disappearances of American citizens. (See Argentina's "Dirty War"-- '74-'83 as an example. Trump would do it.

Tell it like it is.

Ann, is there any chance I could use this cartoon in a presentation, academic paper?

William H. Dutton's avatar

Thank you. 🙏 I’ll clearly acknowledge and send you a draft but it could take time (academic time). Much appreciated.

Your cartoon is spot on once again. After Renee Good and Alex Pretti we all knew they were executioners. Heather Cox Richardson says the detention centers are going to be known in history as concentration camps. I wonder where Tom Homan. is? I believe Trump considers them his own personal firing squad! Nazi Germany reincarnated? Congress - I'm trying to think of an accurate Acronym to represent their dereliction of duty to the American people, the Constitution and our Democracy! Appears everyone is doing everything and saying everything and anything to hold onto power! Then the Supreme Court! Three branches of government, but the American people are the fourth, who need to vote, vote, vote!

Thank you! I hope it is fixed. I hate typos!
