Other folks have mentioned how this cartoon is pretty dumb, but I'd just like to point out how sure, how absolutely certain, McCoy was that he was going to have to get used to drawing Hillary. This is beyond drawing the same face six times, this is a variety of facial nuances and angles, all identifiably the same person, all noticeably rendered in what I would call McCoy's style.

I can just imagine him looking over his vast collection of reference images and practice sketches that led up to the development of this particular McCoy Hillary and angrily trying to figure out some way to make all that effort worth it.

So much better than Tinsley's "trace over that one drawing" method.

Is there anything actually connecting the FBI to Hillary? Or are they jumping to conclusions based on the FBI saying mean things about Trump?

One FBI agent investigating Hillary sent text messages to his mistress bad-mouthing Trump. Game set match, obviously he's in the tank for Hillary and smearing Trump.

Ignore that he was immediately assigned to desk duty in HR when this was discovered.

Also ignore that he sent negative text messages about Hillary, Bernie, Chelsea Clinton, and Eric Holder.

I don't think even Gorrell knows what he's for or against anymore. In the fog of his political vision there is a single pillar left standing, upon which are inscribed the immortal words "democrat = bad". The rest of it is rubble and dust.

"Mueller Claus is Coming to Town"

In keeping with the holiday season, I drew a variation of an enduring symbol—Santa Claus.

Like jolly old St. Nick, Mueller and his investigation into non-existent Trump wrongdoings never seems to go away. Hillary and Obama seem keen on giving us gifts of false realities. We are witnessing the continued political weaponization of the FBI.

Mueller, approved by the Deep Staters Bush and Obama, has already done a lot to weaken our country.

Along with FBI head John Brennan, Mueller was ordered to stop equating Islamic terrorists with Islam itself, thus weakening the FBI’s ability to target terrorism. Political correctness was paramount under Obama and reality was damned.

Now Mueller is back as a special prosecutor looking at the presidential election supposedly getting ‘hacked’ by Russia, which is a lie used by Hillary to excuse her monumental loss. Mueller’s assignment from Hillary and the Deep State Swamp? Dig up as much dirt as possible on Trump in order to get him impeached.

James Comey had earlier helped the Clintons escape a noose from their Whitewater scandal. He was rewarded with a cushy job with Lockheed Martin that paid him many millions of dollars. As the FBI director under Obama, he again saved the Clintons when he refused to recommend Hillary for prosecution. He overlooked her obvious obstruction of justice when she destroyed cell phones and bleach-bit her server. He said there was no ‘intent.’ It was not his call.

Then there is the improbably named Peter Strzok. (pronounced stroke?) He was fired from Mueller’s investigation due to his stridently anti-Trump text messages to his mistress. Do these FBI men not know they leave digital footprints or are they that contemptuous of their own process? Regardless, his behavior is again indicative of the growing bias and partisanship in the FBI. They’re going after Trump without one iota of evidence while they’ve done their best to exonerate Hillary–despite her spate of criminal acts that would send lesser mortals to prison.

FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe enabled Strzok’s behavior. He will answer to a congressional committee next week. Maybe he’ll explain the FBI’s ‘anti-Trump insurance policy’ that was discussed recklessly by Strzok.

Mueller’s partisan anti-Trump fishing expedition could easily drag on for another Christmas and as usual, the taxpayers are on the hook. Meanwhile, the biggest criminal fish, Hillary, never seems to be put on ice.

Instead of investigating Trump, let’s investigate the corruption of the FBI itself.

At first I thought this was clever, but I think its actually a poor analogy. Its closer to how it is now where ISPs have speed-tiers. The free sporadic internet is about the same as trying to catch public wifi.

Perhaps if it was a Netflix toll road, then it would work.

The best analogy I've heard is wanting to ship two bricks in the mail that have the exact same size and weight, but having to pay extra for one because it's painted red instead of blue.

I have no idea how accurate it is though.
