A four-panel illustration tracks Erik Prince from the 1997 launch of Blackwater through 2007 Iraq operations, 2010 foreign flag dealings, and a 2026 portrait of wealth in Abu Dhabi. The sequence highlights repeated accusations of civilian shootings under US contracts and arms trafficking claims while showing rebranding to Academi and continued global sales of paramilitary services.
Dave Whamond draws a scene where a man views a laptop displaying Trump-ordered release of classified files on aliens and UFOs, all heavily redacted with black bars. The headline announces the declassification, but the images reveal nothing, from blurred landscapes to censored figures. The man sighs, saying it doesn't surprise him, highlighting themes of distractions and conspiracies. Tags like classified information, extraterrestrial life, UAP, flying saucers, CIA archives, and evidence of ET underscore the satire on empty revelations. The cartoon captures skepticism toward political maneuvers involving secret files.
