Rick McKee's 2013 cartoon depicts an IRS office where a female agent presents an audit document to a seated male taxpayer. The taxpayer, grinning with a thumbs up, declares he has done nothing wrong and refuses more questions, noting it worked for the agent. This IRS audit cartoon highlights themes of accountability and hypocrisy in a political satire IRS agent context.

Elements like the IRS sign and office setting reinforce the government agency accountability cartoon narrative, making it a sharp take on bureaucratic irony.
