Dave Granlund's political cartoon hilariously portrays South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem in a rodeo metaphor, being violently thrown from a bucking horse labeled 'DHS' under a sign reading 'Kristi Noem's Last Rodeo.' This satire illustration captures her career downfall amid the infamous dog killing scandal, where she admitted to shooting her unruly pup Cricket, sparking widespread outrage. The humorous cartoon underscores how her VP ambitions for the Republican politics ticket were derailed, turning her book promotion into a PR nightmare. With elements of cowboy politics and political humor, it highlights the irreverent side of GOP satire, suggesting this could be Noem's final political stunt.

A political cartoon published November 1, 2012, shows a headless figure in a Romney-labeled suit with an abolish FEMA button. The figure stands beside a speech bubble referencing escape from a storm with only a suit. The image responds to Mitt Romney's earlier statements favoring elimination of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Hurricane Sandy made landfall days earlier, prompting federal disaster response. The cartoon uses the visual of a missing head and storm backdrop to highlight the timing of Romney's past position on the agency.
