I missed this cartoon yesterday but the Nine/Fairfax papers have dropped Leunig from the Monday editorial spot and are trialling new cartoonists (Leunig is still making the Saturday cartoon which is less political).
Herbert made this cartoon which sums it up:

Stupid Policy Tricks
Biden and his administration’s policies are turning America into one big Dumpster fire.

It's amazing that it doesn't ever cross the minds of hateful hawks like Kirschen that giving Gaza humanitarian aid might reduce the terrorism threat, which is one of the most obvious things I could possibly imagine.

Or maybe it's that he wants more terrorism as a pretext to ethnic cleansing...

I like how PAUL THOMAS appears to be the only cartoonist who gives a single solitary poo poo about the royal family and will draw cartoons about trivial happenings that nobody else is even vaguely aware of

All over the state and throughout the country, from school board elections to gubernatorial races, more and more campaigns are driven not by candidates’ qualifications or issues of particular local concern but by bigger battles of national scope.

In the campaign for Seattle city attorney – a position that would seem as local as you can get – one candidate, Ann Davison, is being attacked for switching to the Republican Party while Donald Trump was president, while the other, Nicole Thomas-Kennedy, is getting boosted by the country-wide push to defund the police.

In the race for Seattle mayor, candidate Bruce Harrell is being excoriated in a TV ad supporting his opponent, M. Lorena Gonzalez, because he got a campaign donation (which he returned, by the way) from a real estate mogul who had previously donated money to Trump.

Down in southwest Washington, Republican U.S. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler will face primary election opposition next year, not because she has done a bad job serving her district, but because she voted to impeach Trump.

And back up in Seattle, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont socialist who twice was a major contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, has weighed in with endorsements in the mayoral race and in two port commission races.

All over the state and throughout the country, from school board elections to gubernatorial races, more and more campaigns are driven not by candidates’ qualifications or issues of particular local concern but by bigger battles of national scope. Candidates and campaign managers are finding that voters, ever more poorly informed about issues close to home, are revved up by the things they read about on social media and from what they hear on talk radio and cable TV. And those things seldom have anything to do with potholes getting fixed, bridges being repaired or classrooms being properly supplied.

There are many reasons for this phenomenon, including the decline and disappearance of so many local newspapers, the rise of Facebook and Twitter, and the extreme polarization of American politics, particularly the stark ideological drift of cities toward the left and rural areas toward the right. It might be that local politics was never quite as local as it once seemed, but it is obvious now that local elections are skirmishes in cultural and ideological wars that span 50 states.

If that's meant as like a "bottom of the bottom of the ballot" race, then I don't know what Elmo Smith here is worried about. Stuff like that tends to go uncontested in my experience.

Colin Powell led a storied career that took him from his Harlem childhood as the son of Jamaican immigrants to the pinnacle of the United States military and the highest levels of the federal government. His record of service was marred only by the starkly misleading and mendacious speech he gave before the United Nations that justified the impending American invasion of Iraq in 2003.

Yet, Powell found redemption for that mistake when, only a couple of years later, he very forthrightly stated that he had been wrong, that he had been fed erroneous information by the CIA and the hawks in the George W. Bush administration who duped him and used his immense credibility as a cover for their cynical drive to war.

In an era when very few public figures are brave and honest enough to admit their mistakes and take responsibility for their failures, Powell was a distinguished exception. He learned from his own failures and from the failures of others. Having performed heroic service during the Vietnam War in which he saw policy disasters up close, he counseled against running off to future wars without a clear path to victory and the support of the American people when he became the first Black head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and, later, the first Black Secretary of State.

When he saw his own Republican Party veering toward right-wing craziness, he could not stay silent, first by endorsing Barack Obama over the McCain/Palin ticket, later by denouncing Donald Trump’s corrupt and dangerous regime and, finally, by leaving the GOP after the Trump-inspired attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. With the death of Colin Powell this week, the country has lost a man of decency, integrity and moral force at a time when such leaders — especially among Republicans — are in very short supply.
