Publication occurred on October 20 2025 near the holiday.
The cartoon depicts Nicolás Maduro trapped in the lower chamber of an hourglass as sand patterned with the American flag flows downward.

Tags like USA, President, Trump, tariffs, prices, war underscore the visual pun on economic booms turning explosive. The dry humor points to unintended consequences without overstatement. Windows show a blue sky dotted with rain-like lines, adding to the stormy atmosphere. This piece fits neatly into discussions on trade policies, blending clear lines with bold colors for impact.
Bob Englehart's Father's Day cartoon depicts three men labeled Dad, Grandad and Great-Grandad each holding a baby. The panels carry bottom labels reading Difficult, Easier and Easiest.

The cartoon shows a mustached man in a blue suit and red tie, balancing a teetering stack of bowls in shades of red, orange, and yellow, each labeled with words like corrupcion, derechos humanos, oposicion, pobreza, crisis humanitaria, sin comida, and economia. Liquid spills from the bowls as he leans forward, one foot raised toward a sharp saw blade on the ground. The image captures a sense of imbalance and impending fall, with the artist's signature 'arcadio' at the top. Tags like Maduro, dictadura, ecomomia, Latino America, and Venezuela frame the visible elements of stacked troubles. No hidden meanings jump out; it's straightforward visual metaphor for overload. Dry humor lies in the absurdity of the juggle.
