Good one! I remember Schoolhouse Rock and I did learn a lot...What a sad state that country has sunk to now.

Ghostbusters and Schoolhouse Rock were my inspirations.

Oh so many choices, and so little time. I was so inspired this week that I actually did 3 cartoons instead of one. I am sure you fight that battle on a weekly basis. And I am just doing it for fun and mental health 😉.

"In fact Canadians grew up understanding the American system better than the Canadian system."

Psst: A-hole encamped in our Oval Office - now, spiffed up and gleaming, in 24K gold - doesn't even KNOW US presidents since G. Washington have submitted bills to Congress they wrote themselves. That would be work of course, and require some reading and writing, which Thug-1 doesn't DO. What will come as a REAL surprise to A-hole is that THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

IS "WE THE PEOPLE": CERTAINLY NOT HIM , OR THE (RAZOR-THIN) CONGRESSIONAL MAJORITY. If you pray, please pray for the Judiciary leg of our government. They've kept A-hole's attacks on democracy at a Win/Loss imbalance of Wins-O, Losses-100%. The Judicial Branch can - and likely will - also establish its own personal security force. We and the whole nation will survive, and will apologizing for decades to the whole world. TACO-man will flee to Saudi Arabia which has no extradition agreement with the US when he figures out he's a CORNERED rat. He's more likely to die sooner of natural causes, exacerbated by his OWN drug use/abuse.

Much ado about... nothing? Not exactly! A turbocharged tax break for the uber-wealthy, while mid to low income households grab what's left of the meagre-iocrity of scraps off the Mar-a-Lago scrap heap.

The small-fingered vulgarian is now & will always be the embodiment of loathsome. 🔥❌️

I used them for related lessons when I taught eighth graders. I often saw them mouthing the words during tests.

My cousin (1st cousin once removed) was the cartoonist for that SchoolHouse Rock--I'm just a Bill. His name was Roland B. Wilson. Always think of him when someone references that particular episode.

Wouldn’t it be nice to go back in time for a break from our reality? trump costs us millions for his golfing weekends EVERY weekend, yet supplemental food for the needy costs too much for our government to bear. Billionaires will be getting tax cuts, even though they will not notice that bit of money, yet the middle class and the poor will have to scrape together what little money is left to pay rent and buy whatever is cheapest at the grocery store to fill their bellies.
