This cartoon is a classic recreation of Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown in Peanuts. In this version, Lucy is labeled “GOP” and the football “Health care subsidies.” Charlie Brown is labeled “Dems.” Lucy says, “I’ll guarantee I’ll give you a vote!” Charlie Brown runs to kick the football thinking to himself, “OK, this has never failed me before…”

This cartoon depicts a happy man in a suit labeled “Congress.” He holds a newspaper with a headline that reads, “Government shutdown ending?” He looks at a woman, holds up his hand, and says, “High five!” The woman responds, “Sorry, after 40 days of chaos and anxiety, the most I can offer you is one finger.”

This cartoon depicts a park ranger pointing to a cross section of an enormous, old tree as he explains it to a group of tourists. He says, “Notable moments in history are marked on this tree’s rings — the singing of the Declaration of Independence, the first printing of the Gutenberg Bible, and even Nancy Pelosi’s first day in office.”

This cartoon depicts the silhouettes of two men together and two women holding hands looking up at a dark cloud labeled “2025 politics.” A rainbow has formed. One woman holds a newspaper that reads “Supreme Court: Same-sex marriage stands” while the other woman says, “Finally, a bright spot in a cloudy sky!”

This is a six-panel cartoon featuring a caricature of Donald Trump as a farmer and his eight chickens, which are labeled with the names of the senators who voted to end the shutdown: Sen. Kaine, Sen. Rosen, Sen. Masto, Sen. Fetterman, Sen. King, Sen. Hassan, Sen. Shaheen, and Sen. Durbin. Trump sings “Old King Donald Had a Farm, EE, I, EE, I O. And on his farm he had some chickens. With a cluck-cluck here, and a cluck-cluck there, here a cluck, there a cluck, everywhere a cluck cluck.” In the second to last frame the chickens say, “We voted with MAGA…To hurt America!” In the last frame, Trump sings, “Old king Donald got a win, EE, I EE, I, O-Fugk!”
