When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

The image is a political cartoon depicting two anthropomorphic animals representing the Democratic and Republican parties. On the left is a donkey, colored in muted grays and blues, with large, droopy ears and a skeptical expression. It is wearing a blue shirt. On the right is an elephant, rendered in shades of gray with distinctive wrinkles and folds of skin. The elephant is wearing a bright red jacket and a red MAGA hat, which is a prominent symbol. Its trunk is curled slightly and it is gesturing with one of its hands.

Above and between the two animals, a gold-colored oval coin is depicted in mid-air, labeled "MIDTERMS" in black text. A wavy line indicates the coin is in motion, suggesting a flip or toss.

A speech bubble emanates from the elephant, containing bold black text that reads: "HEADS I WIN, TAILS YOU RIGGED IT". This statement directly addresses the "MIDTERMS" coin and implies a cynical view of election outcomes, suggesting the Republican party will claim victory regardless of the result and accuse the other side of rigging the election if they lose.

The background is entirely white, which isolates the characters and emphasizes the cartoon's message. The artistic style is a rough, sketch-like line drawing with watercolor-style coloring, giving it a distinct political commentary feel. The signature "Branmall'26 NYDN" is visible in the upper left corner, indicating the artist and publication. The composition places the donkey looking towards the elephant, which is the speaker, creating a visual dialogue focused on the election and its perceived integrity. The elephant's gesture and the accompanying text are the central focus of the cartoon's commentary.

Someone explain to me like I’m five how a President using his own government to prevent tax audits into himself isn’t blatant corruption.

BREAKING: SB 2471 has been signed into law! It’s the first of its kind in the nation and renders the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision irrelevant in Hawaii. This is a win for the movement to get big money, especially dark money, out of politics.

Anyone else notice this? Mainstream journalists have forgotten their duty to speak truth to power. It is why it is one of the rights written into the Constitution. Political cartoonists are the real and true heroes of the moment.

This isn't sustainable - as the GOP will learn during the upcoming midterms - provided we turn out the vote.

Sixty percent of Texas counties did not have a pharmacy in 2023. In 2025, more than 4.3 million Texans lived in pharmacy deserts, meaning they must travel farther to reach a pharmacy than a supermarket. And one pharmacy closes each week in Texas, according to the Texas Pharmacy Association.
