Randall Enos draws a big, bug-eyed face labeled as Patel gazing into a dark hole where a fierce rat speaks, saying it's just Patel seeking a hiding spot. The cartoon tags Kash Patel, director of FBI, Trump firings, rats, Trump lackeys, sycophants, Pam Bondi, pointing to the chaos of Trump appointments and firings. The rat's aggressive pose and the face's shock amplify the humor in political survival tactics.
