Are you aware that Musk has taken over the US Treasury payment system? The mainstream media certainly have not said anything about it! However, per Robert Hubbell's Substack post today (02/02/25), "When I last wrote, Musk was attempting to seize control of the Treasury payment system. Late Friday, he succeeded in doing so. Treasury Secretary Bessent handed control over to Musk and privateers from Silicon Valley" (please read Hubbell's full post at https://roberthubbell.substack.com/p/the-coup-rolls-on-but-we-will-prevail?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=email-restack-comment&r=1mwmcv&triedRedirect=true). This means that at any time of his choosing, Musk can stop the Social Security, Medicare, Income Tax refunds, and countless other payments to Americans. Letting Musk have control of the Treasury's payment is clearly illegal, and Secretary Bessent needs to be impeached. Please contact your representatives (Ph: 202-224-3121) and demand that Congress take at least one step in protecting millions of Americans' livelihood. Congress certainly has not done anything to remediate the censoring of vital public health information, which by the way, all tax-paying Americans have already paid for.
Read Politico’s article today on the Treasury Department. Apparently Musk has not succeeded in getting access. A Treasury Department team, whose leader liaisons with DOGE, is the entity with “no copy, read only” access. No-one outside of Treasury can see the data base.
Things may "feel the same" but they shouldn't, because they're MUCH WORSE. Criminal-1 is more embolden than in the term from hell in 2017, which (in four years) ushered in 20 years of aging for anyone in the world who can read, has a TV, radio, and/or a computer. His political malignancy was embryonic. He's now a savvy, grasping, voracious, no-holes-barred, cutthroat dictator, and he terrifies politicians who have anything (ever) to hide. There is NOTHING he wouldn't do, if he deemed it necessary - up to, and including gas, showers . He's evil to the soulless core of if his orange-headed carcass.
Please forgive my two maddening typos. I'm an admitted lunatic trying to slam the reality of this man's danger to all living things, and typos are proportionate to my frank RAGE. We have MOUNTAINS of it building up since the pompous *ss floated down the brass elevator to the cheer of staged, paid, "fans": it was just the beginning of the bad performance artistry of this dangerous con artist: our Olympic Gold liar, criminal, cheat, son-of-a-dog. Sadly, Disney's Mr. Grue softened the word DESPICABLE. The pantheon of spineless Congressfolks who are equally contemptible for their silence, only adds to the living nightmare in progress, because his aim is to run the world. TWISTED? He WANTS to be the most powerful and memorable earth-shaking ruler in history. In his own madness he's sure (because of his own agony at the pain of being under-served by incompetent losers: once "the best people." Thug-1 knows Hitler's end wasn't Hitler's failing, it was due the inferiority of everyone who surrounded him, always failing to keep up with Hitler's genius and vision. That's what we're dealing with,k Campers!
Great cartoons and definitely appropriate for now ! I will miss traveling to the USA 🇺🇸, but I wonder if it will be recognizable in another two weeks time.
Thanks for the giggle, but also rather up-setting! Hopefully we all can survive the next four years! Is there any one in his Cabinet who perhaps can advise him that, that maybe his idea is not such a good one and may injure his reputation...go take a rest on the golf course!

Au contraire re “Mainstream Media.” From the WaPost yesterday headlines: “Musk aides gain access to sensitive Treasury Department payment system
The access — granted by Scott Bessent, Trump’s newly confirmed treasury secretary — comes after the ousting of the agency’s top career official.”
It was also in the NYT.

Thanks again Michael! Always nice to have a chuckle when times are grim! Even if you have hit the dark and ugly heart of the tragedy facing us!

The land speed record slide needs to be changed for 2024 so that the two signs are back to back.

Funny how apropos these still are, 8 years later! (Just swap Melania’s stilettos for “big hat”…)
no words needed for the Master of Political satire
Great work! The first three still work.
Incredible, unbelievable all that's going on. With your cartoons comes validation for our feelings of despair and a wry chuckle in the face of doom.

WOW - Dejavu!
The best.
Thanks for the laugh - not mush has changed in 8 years :)
Always loved the stilettos 🤣♥️
