This cartoon depicts a pair of hands holding a piece of paper titled “State of Minnesota.” All of the lines on the paper have been redacted by dark-colored lines so nothing is visible. A voice says, “Here are the state voter rolls you demanded. Have a nice day, Ms. Bondi.”

This cartoon is titled “Kristi Noem swaps her cowboy hat for a new one.” It depicts Noem with a fascist-style hat that has a silver eagle on the top and a T in the middle. It covers her eyes and only her big, oversize lips are visible. She says, “I was only following orders.”

This is a wordless cartoon set on the beach near Gaza. Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are in the background playing with a beachball in the ocean. In the foreground, a skeleton lounges on a broken chair next to an umbrella riddled with bullet holes. There is a body bag in a chair next to it. The city in the background is built from broken pieces of things including a missile.

This is a four-panel cartoon with an elephant standing next to a window in each frame. The elephant says “Don’t blame the guns” in the first three frames as the scenes out the windows are Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, and Uvalde. In the final frame a photo of Alex Pretti is next to the words “Protestor killed in Minneapolis” and the elephant yells, “It was the gun’s fault!”

This cartoon depicts a letter sent from Pam Bondi to Minnesota. The letter is a copy of the Constitution that has been modified to look like a ransom note. There are letters cut out from some place that spell out “Obey Trump if you ever want to see your democracy again!”
