There are stories of a plot within members of the right faction in Liberal ranks, calling themselves "The Deplorables", to undermine their own government and reinstate Abbott to Cabinet (at the very least).

Guys, I'm at work. Could we maybe put pictures of Lady Liberty getting reamed up the butt behind a link?

I don't know which is better, Pence staring into the viewer's soul with his dead eyes, or Paul Ryan as a goblin henchman. Seriously, just try to tell me Paul Ryan doesn't look like a goblin or gremlin in that picture.

I know someone else normally links The Nib's offerings, but they haven't been to the thread yet this morning, and I absolutely love this one.

I love political cartoons for the way they present they present the artist's point of view with clarity, subtlety, originality, and great talent. I often think about the artists living in places where you can be imprisoned for critiquing the government in such a way, and how many already have been.

If I only posted cartoons that mirror my own views, I'd be no better than someone who gets all his news from Fox. The cartoonists who make excuses for Trump get on my nerves sometimes, but maybe that's a good thing. I don't want to live in a bubble.

Heh, look at this loser with a "job" and "responsibilities" and "human contact".

Sucks to suck.

Actually, kidding aside, posting that comic increased my respect for the work you do. I figured I'd just use the BeautifulSoup scraper I made to suck all the images off those pages and drop 'em on Imgur, with a link back to the source.

Turns out that not only is every comic cut up into individual fuckin' panels, they set their pages up to defeat the type of basic bitch python scraper my librarian rear end is capable of coding.

You put in some work on that poo poo, friend.

Like I said, the cartoon is from 2002, which is when Pelosi became the House Minority Leader. It's almost certainly based on her, although yes, I'm pretty sure they're supposed to be generic caricatures.

The Obama administration sent a “Dear Colleague” letter to Universities threatening to yank their federal funding for failure to offer an open admission policy for their restrooms.

The Trump administration is reversing course and leaving bathroom administration up to the states.

Getting Uncle Sam out of the bedroom was a good thing. So why not the bathroom too?

This is actually a good case of stuck clock-ism. The problem is that a lot of our government is built on the assumption that everyone is acting with, if not total competence, at least a clue and some good faith. So when you get poo poo like the executive branch saying "hey ICE, go round people up" and the judicial branch says "uh how about no, that poo poo is not consitutional," there is no mechanism to deal with it if the executive says "gently caress you, we're doing it anyway." I read a pretty good twitter thing about it (what do you call those anyway?), the point of which is "the Constitution is badly written because nobody stopped to ask what happens if a shitbag gets in charge."

I don't know if you mean that in a "how hosed up is the US government" sense or in the "are you really this stupid" sense, but it's entirely possible I'm way off on this. So if you mean it in the latter sense, then the answer is "apparently yes, please disregard my prior statement."

Dear Readers,

After 18 wonderful months as the creator of RedPanels, I am announcing my retirement. Knowing and interacting with you has made all the labor worthwhile.

My decision is motivated by a bright future. The Meme President has ascended to the throne, Brexit has shaken the foundations of the E.U., and everywhere you look there is a new independent media eating the lunch of the mainstream. The Left has been routed and the tide of the culture war turns in our favor. In the midst of all this good fortune I am taking the opportunity to rest.

RedPanels has been the most fun project I have ever undertaken, though it is not the only one I plan to. Producing free comics for you has been immensely rewarding, but future endeavors require the funds that a proper career would provide. As such, I am focusing my time accordingly. If you'd like to leave me a parting gift as I make the transition, you may do so via my Patreon, (I will close it early in March, so new patrons will only be charged a single contribution.) or via Bitcoin (1D2BWBz1Yv8qJs6K1NnYZNUYYQxFxJxibx). If you are privvy to a position in the Houston area concerning tech sales or CCNA recipients in April, I'd appreciate a heads up.

Those who wish to contact me may continue to do so via my official email, admin@redpanels.com, or via Twitter. My comics will be archived on this site for the forseeable future. You are free to share, copy, or remix them however you see fit.

Thank you all.

Love,

Red

We are concerned, Senator Hatch, that your proposed remedy to employer sanctions–based discrimination, namely, the elimination of employer sanctions, will cause another problem — the revival of pre-1986 discrimination against black and brown U.S. and documented workers, in favor of cheap labor — the undocumented workers. This would undoubtedly exacerbate an already severe economic crisis in communities where there are large numbers of new immigrants.
