A political cartoon depicts a couple leaving a grocery store after learning they cannot continue buying food on credit. Signs inside show sharply higher prices for butter at $6.59 per pound, cheddar cheese at $8.89 per pound and sirloin steak at $15 per pound. A banner overhead reads The Toll of War (and Tariffs).

A political cartoon published July 21, 2026, depicts a fighter jet marked Iran launching a barrage of missiles while a speech bubble from the cockpit reads OK, SO I LIED.

On March 28, 2019, Jeff Koterba's cartoon depicts a towering state senator clutching a briefcase labeled term limits for state senators as he leaves a voting booth.

The visual contrast underscores the power imbalance between entrenched politicians and average voters seeking change.
