christian nationalism
The cartoon shows Steve Bannon, labeled clearly, gesturing emphatically while decrying Pope Leo XIV as the first American pope but not America First. The pope, in white robes and red cap, responds that a Christian's job is to put God first. Tags such as Vatican, conclave, Catholics, Christianity, Jesus Christ, and border underscore the satire on blending partisan politics with faith. The drawing captures a stark divide, with Bannon's angry expression contrasting the pope's stern look. Alexandra Bowman's style brings dry humor to the clash between nationalism and religious priorities.

John Darkow\'s cartoon captures a smug, arrogant figure resembling Josh Hawley, raising a cross and shouting \'I\'m a Christian Nationalist!\' Jesus, depicted centrally with long hair and beard, responds with a plea to the Heavenly Father about loving all children but adding \'C\'mon!\' in exasperation. Flanked by robed figures, one wearing a \'J. Crew\' shirt, the scene drips with dry humor targeting pious opportunists. Tags like Christian Nationalist, smug, arrogant, pious, opportunist, and Jesus underscore the satire on blending faith with nationalism. The composition keeps it straightforward, no hidden layers, just visible frustration from the holy group toward the suited declarer.
