A political cartoon shows Donald Trump and Ayatollah Khamenei on opposite ends of a seesaw labeled Strait of Hormuz. Trump occupies the open side while the Iranian leader sits on the closed side. Colorful shipping containers line the beam with some falling off. The image highlights tensions over the vital oil shipping route. The cartoon uses the seesaw to illustrate competing efforts to control access through the strait.

Dave Whamond's cartoon shows a wooden pirate ship tilting over waves, with a figure resembling Trump in a skull cap saying 'Nothing against the women but these boys are doing a heckuva job!' Women labeled Leavitt and Tulsi stand on a plank, another labeled Bondi splashes in water wearing a cowboy hat. A suited man steers, a shirtless man holds a raccoon, tying into tags like AG Pam Bondi ousted, Trump loyalist, walking the plank, Kristi Noem, Tulsi Gabbard, dead women walking, Kash Patel, incompetence, Trumps kooky cabinet, and ship metaphor for political upheaval.
