    Hey Lisa, how about a cartoon of Trump telling people to vote twice. And while you’re at it, how about one with Trump saying he doesn’t want wounded servicemen and veterans at his military parades. “Nobody wants to see that.”

    And how about all the times he said don’t wear masks? No masks at OUR WH when he used it illegally. And when he says there are very nice people on both sides. We could go on and on.

    If you’re thinking that the poor, desperate right-wingnuts are grasping at straws, and we’d all be better off as a nation if they’d go ahead and admit their mistake now so we can all move America back toward sanity together, then yes, yes I am thinking what you are thinking.

    Nancy abuses her status to get a private session with a hairdresser.

    Trumpy abuses his office to tear gas his way to a church, using the U.S. Military to deny U.S. Citizens the right to assemble peaceably to protest government action.

    One of these things really really bothers Lisa Benson. But not the one that should.

    Meanwhile the Rump holds gatherings with hundreds on unmasked people. You, and your fellow hypocritical conservative cartoonists, didn’t mention that.

    How desperate are these conservative crackpots to invent an imaginary scandal with Nancy Pelosi?

    NEWSFLASH: closure orders are issued against BUSINESSES, not CLIENTS.

    There are different rules in different states and different cities within states affecting different businesses differently, depending on how essential they are, how risky their exposures are and to what extent mitigation is possible.

    Clients and customers can’t keep track of all that.

    It is up to each BUSINESS to know what rules apply to their business, in their jurisdiction and with the level of mitigation they have been able to implement.

    Customers are allowed to rely on the businesses (some are open fully with safeguards, some are closed completely, and some are in between). It is up to each BUSINESS to know which rules apply just for their business and then comply with them.

    Sure, Pelosi should have known better, but the fact is that California state law allows in-person indoor salon services with safety measures (which were in place). It is the city of San Francisco that has a CITY restriction that Pelosi was unaware of. Sure, she should have been, but she wasn’t.

    If a business is open, or is open with conditions, the customer is not in violation if the customer relies on the assurances of the business. In this case, the business owner assured Pelosi, when she inquired, that it was legal WITH SAFEGUARDS, in this case, one customer in at a time.

    And yes, IT WAS A SET-UP TO EMBARRASS PELOSI.

    Why else would a routine security video be released to the public, when there was no security breach, no break-in, not even a violation BY THE CLIENT — the only violation was by the business in FALSELY assuring Pelosi that everything was kosher when she inquired, when the owner knew darn well it was not..

    The fact that the owner specifically stated that Pelosi proved it is safe; i.e., the owner was trying to make a political point.

    How many days repeating PELOSI getting her hair cut before she becomes a ‘skinhead’ like some of the Trump base ? It only took me one trip to the barber when I was in boot camp.

    While the optics of Pelosi getting her hair done is bad, whose responsibility is it to inform her (or whoever set up the appointment) that the business wasn’t open for that due to COVID? It seems to me that the shop owner/hairdresser is responsible for their shop and Pelosi was just the customer. It doesn’t matter if it was Pelosi or someone else calling to get an appointment. The hairdresser is the one who made the appointment.

    BREAKING NEWS: A TRUTH SERUM has been sold by unknown dark shadows as a Cure for COVID-19. Former Governor Rick Snyder of Michigan has endorsed JOE BIDEN. Other former and current Republicans have also done the same! THIS IS TRUE. Check all the news stations or read the newspaper of your choice.

    And HOW MANY PEOPLE were running around UNMASKED at the Trump Stores at Sturgis, before heading home to SPREAD MORE CASES OF COVID TO ALL 50 STATES???

    AND HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE SEEN FAT-ASS HIMSELF REFUSING TO WEAR A MASK AT A FACTORY THAT MAKES THEM, FORCING THE MANUFACTURER TO THROW AWAY THOUSANDS OF UNUSED MASKS????

    Yesterday trump held a rally in Pennsylvania trump was not wearing a mask and few in the crowd who were standing shoulder to shoulder were wearing mask. trump ridiculed Biden for wearing a mask and claimed it was an indication of mental illness and he needed to see a psychiatrist.

    Pelosi makes a poor decision and even the progressive commenters are pointing it out.

    Meanwhile, trump says men killed in combat are suckers and fools. He makes fun of disabled people, pays for sex, cheats on all three wives, walks in on teenage girls dressing, Hatch Act violations, campaign finance fraud, ripping off children cancer patients, ripping off veterans, says “Take the guns first, go through due process second”, says nothing about Russian interference, says nothing about bounties on our soldiers. calls a POW a loser, allegedly rapes a thirteen year old, incourages violence, racist dog whistles, signs of dementia, etc. All this and his cult still supports him.

    Women will have their hair done come hell or high water, Mao found that out when he tried to ban capitalism, the women demanded their hair salons stay open.

    Lisa knows this, she is just another right wing hypocrite.

    It would be safe for one person to go in a salon. That’s still much less dangerous than opening a salon to everyone at the same time, like normal.

    Benson deliberately ignores the narcissistic incompetence of #45 which has caused the premature deaths of 180,000+ Americans from COVID-19! She is becoming as dishonest as our ‘Liar-in-Chief!’

    YES I AM HITTING ALL THE CARTOONS BECAUSE THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR ALL OF US

    The WH is attempting to shut down the Stars & Stripes newspaper. This publication id DoD funded but is editorially independent from the DoD, Executive branch and the Congress. It serves 1.2 million service members.

    Please sign the WH petition calling on the WH to STOP this misguided effort.

    About twice a year I take a look at Ms Benson’s handiwork. It’s always the same story—excellent art-work, lethally obtuse message.
