Quite a few good Trump cartoons this week (and even one about RFK Jr):

 

Tariffs:

 

 

 

 

If they really have to ask this, maybe they should look for a new line of work:

 

 

 

 

Just hurry up and return the wrongly deported guy (in fact, all of them) already - like you've been ordered to!:

 

 

 

 

 

RFK Jr hard at work:

 

 

 

 

DOGE continues their mission to screw up/get rid of everything they don't like about the US Government:

 

 

 

 

And finally, I bet a fairly sizeable number of Americans are feeling this way right now:

Why is RFK Jr there??? Each time I've seen him talking, he seems drunk or on drowsy meds. Makes "Sleepy Joe" seem like an insomniac

I think this has already been mentioned before, but Department of Homeland Security asking some US born citizen to self deport.

The use of dehumanizing words in US government agency has long been a fact. For example the US tax department the IRS has long used the phrase "alien workers".

If someone is an "alien" instead of a person, it’s easier for others to ignore their suffering or support harsh treatment.

Language like this has been used to justify policies like family separation, detention, or deportation -- by framing people as "invaders" or "illegals" rather than families, workers, or refugees.

It reinforces power structures by keeping certain groups marginalized and excluded, both socially and legally.

In 2024 alone, Trump suggested to creating a "migrant league of fighters," implying that migrants are inherently violent. He stated, "I think the migrants’ guy might win, that’s how tough they are."

He also referred to some undocumented immigrants accused of crimes as "not people," stating, "I don't know if you call them people". He referred to undocumented immigrants as "animals" and "not human."

During his 2025 inaugural address, Trump referred to immigrants as “dangerous criminals, many from prisons and mental institutions”

Soon after President Trump issued an immigration executive orders titled “Guaranteeing the States Protection Against Invasion” and “Protecting the American People Against Invasion.”

American doctor receives email from immigration officials telling her to leave the country immediately: NBC News

"Dr. Lisa Anderson, 58, was born in Pennsylvania and is a U.S. citizen."

All good, there wasnt a qualified journalist. I gather his neighbour was busy....

 

I will await Leavitt's confirmation that its all sweet and journo's should focus on something important. Maybe like foreign aid to millions of third world citizens who are  suffering, like USAID has dumped.

Speaking of deportations - probably can't deport this clown as I daresay he's a US citizen, but hell, a minor detail like that hasn't stopped the orange buffoon so far!

 

Having said that, I get impression this clown is probably some he'd like to hang onto 😮
