Sunday "All I Want" Funnies


Happy holidays to Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, BAE Systems, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, Boeing et. al.


All that I -- and little Suzie below, courtesy Mark Fiore -- want for Xmas is a lot more than a Trump indictment, prosecution, conviction, and imprisonment.


That doesn’t mean the Insurrector-in-Chief will actually be indicted by the DOJ, but it is one step closer to happening.  The holiday season really is a time of wonder and magic!

Speaking of magic, Congress passed a $858 billion defense budget that barely caused a ripple. According to the New York Times, this cash haul is “the second highest in inflation-adjusted terms since World War II.”  If you haven’t hung out your shingle as an arms dealer, now might be the time.

Meanwhile it looks like most Republicans and Democrats in Congress are in no hurry to ban stock trades, so the smell of conflict of interest wafting through the hallways will probably be stronger than the smell of chestnuts.

And even though we might not have as much cash as the Pentagon or certain families in Congress, I hope you have a wonderful holiday(s)!

Would Christians who behave more like Christ be too much to ask?  I'm thinking 'probably'.
You may have noticed a dissimilarity between 'wolves' as viewed through right and left lenses.
Here's a toast to our least favorite billionaire for 2023: may your business acumen propel you to millionaire status in the New Year.
And Politico has the cartoon year-in-review.

Sunday 'Supertramp' Funnies

supertramp -- a species of organism that disperses widely and is not adapted to any specific environment
I said now watch what you say, they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable
Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable
So you think your schooling is phony
I guess it's hard not to agree
You say, "It all depends on money
And who is in your family tree"

Sunday "Trading Places" Funnies

Republicans and Democrats in Congress recently joined together to force rail workers to accept a contract with exactly zero paid sick days and one measly “personal day.” Thanks to the 1926 Railway Labor Act, lawmakers sided with (surprise, surprise!) multi-billion dollar rail corporations instead of workers.
