The cartoon depicts the Statue of Liberty, Uncle Sam and an AI robot seated in a 9/11 group therapy session on the 25th anniversary of the attacks. The Statue of Liberty holds a book marked July IV MDCCLXXVI and speaks of deepening loss since 2001. Uncle Sam echoes the sentiment of end days. The AI figure, labeled with a rising doomsday plot progress chart, retorts that the others have seen nothing yet. The scene uses national symbols to reflect persistent national trauma and emerging technological threats two and a half decades after the September 11 attacks.
The cartoon depicts a dense crowd of Americans standing on a map of the United States, partially obscured by a large dark shadow cast by surveillance cameras mounted on poles. The words 'Surveillance State' appear prominently in green lettering across the scene, while a sign in the upper right reads 'CASTING A 25 YEAR-LONG SHADOW.' The image comments on the lasting effects of expanded government surveillance programs that began after the September 11 attacks, now spanning a quarter century. It illustrates how these measures continue to influence daily life and public spaces in 2026.

The image displays a glass marked peace talks containing liquid. A drinking bird device with Iran written on the head repeatedly dips its beak into the glass.

The cartoon shows three men with beards and head coverings positioned in a sandy area beside shallow water. The left figure sits holding a stringed instrument.

Graeme MacKay's cartoon depicts King Charles III leaning in to whisper a message from King George III to a regally dressed President Trump, who misinterprets it due to the accent. Tagged with USA, Canada, UK, the image explores monarchy, diplomacy, and alliance themes. Trump's crown labeled with his name adds symbolism of self-aggrandizement, while the 'Trump Whisperer' caption underscores the tension in this leadership encounter. Historical nods to tradition and stability contrast with modern visit dynamics, blending respect and satire in a visually striking composition.
Rick McKee's cartoon shows two stern FBI agents in vests and caps, carrying a limp, bearded man who's clearly intoxicated, complete with hiccups and swirling symbols overhead, clutching a bottle marked XXX. The sign above reads 'Kash and Carry,' a clear pun tying into Kash Patel, the figure depicted. This piece tags into FBI, Federal Bureau of Investigation, drunk, alcohol, agents, criminal justice, and domestic policy, poking at the idea of leadership in a haze. The dry humor lands on the absurdity of carrying someone unfit, visually straightforward without hidden layers. Newspapers love this kind of sharp, unambiguous satire that comments on current events without overcomplicating the message.
