A cartoon in which two seagulls converse. One asks, "Have you moved to the countryside?" The other replies, "Yes. How did you know." The second gull is sporting a fetching pair of green wellingtons.

A cartoon of two Irish gentlemen standing beside a road sign that reads, "Drive On, The Left!" One gentleman is saying to the other, "After the presidential election I added the punctuation."

Cartoon of two dogs, Alice and Bob, looking at something steamy on the ground. They converse: Alice. What is it? Bob. No idea. Alice. Are we going to eat it? Bob. Of course we are.

Small fish with an upside down American flag as its scales is about to be swallowed by a larger fish labelled "Civil War".... who is about to be eaten by an even larger fish labelled "A.I.", who is also about to be eaten by a gargantuan fish labelled "Climate Disaster".

⚠️This is the Jimmy Kimmel monologue that got his show pulled.

Not hate. Not celebration of death.

Just the truth: Republicans rushed to blame the left before any facts about the shooter or motive were known.

Keep sharing it. Spread the truth.
