Civic satire with teeth. A backbone forged in the Constitution.
We stand against kings, cults, and cowardice—mocking what demands mockery, defending democracy without apology, and calling out every cheap attack on freedom.

Miss Piggy enters the briefing room like the feminist icon she is.

“You will answer Moi’s question… unless you want a Hai-Yah karate lesson.”

Never underestimate a determined porcine Force of Nature.
A stylized illustration showing Miss Piggy dressed as a reporter in a blue blazer, holding a microphone and pointing confidently. She faces a caricatured blond man in a white shirt and red tie who looks angry and is pointing back at her. A purple caption bar at the bottom reads: “You will answer Moi’s question… unless you want a Hai-Yah karate lesson.” The scene has the dramatic tension of a press-room confrontation, with Miss Piggy appearing amused and in control.

Miss Piggy has entered the conversation.

Actress. Singer. Dancer. Fashion Icon. Feminist Force of Nature.

She has no patience for the tasteless, classless debauchery that is the Trump regime and insecure little men who fear strong women.

No dogs were harmed physically or emotionally in the making of this meme.

Politicians are a different matter.

#KristiNoem #DoesTheDogDie #RightsAndReason #Satire #DarkHumor
A shocked black-and-white dog looks to the side as a person’s hand points a revolver at its head. The image is darkly humorous. Below it, text reads: “Kristi Noem doesn’t check Rotten Tomatoes. She checks Does the Dog Die? — and if the answer’s no, she skips it. It’s a take off on the old National Lampoon cover - buy this magazine or the dog dies.

When the city lost all hope, seven frogs rode in from the wetlands.
They don’t ribbit. They don’t retreat.
They just HOP.
🐸🤠🌇
#TheMagnificentHop #PortlandNeedsHeroes #HoldingOutForAHero
A vintage-style Western movie poster titled “The Magnificent Hop” shows seven anthropomorphic frogs dressed as cowboy gunslingers standing in a desert at sunset. The central frog wears a sheriff’s badge and a wide-brimmed hat, flanked symmetrically by six companions — each in unique Western attire such as bandanas, cigars, and hats. The warm palette of ochre, red, and brown evokes a 1960s film poster, with bold serif lettering across the top reading “THE MAGNIFICENT HOP.”

MAGA thinks schools are running “gender-conversion machines.”

Meanwhile, teachers are crowdfunding for pencils.

This is what they imagine — a Seussian nightmare powered by fear and fiction.

Lee, Jackson, Stuart. Beards.

Without these “beardos,” the Confederacy would have been down quite a few warriors.

#Confederacy #MAGA #Beardos
Black-and-white portraits of three Confederate generals with full beards: Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and J.E.B. Stuart. The caption contrasts Pete Hegseth’s claim that “facial hair is incompatible with the warrior ethos” with these historic figures, highlighting the irony.

A meme split into three sections. Top right: an illustration of Martin Luther King Jr. with the quote, “If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, boy, I hope he’s qualified.” Bottom left: a cartoon illustration of Charlie Kirk with MLK’s real quote, “I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.” Across the middle, bold white text on a black banner reads: “Match the quote to the man. One preached equality. The other peddled racism. MAGA says they’re the same.”

Cartoon of a rainbow-painted VW bus covered in protest flags and bumper stickers. Flags on the roof say “ANTIFA,” “Black Lives Matter,” and “Climate Justice Now.” The sides are plastered with stickers like “Tax the Rich,” “My Other Car Runs on Tofu,” and “Free the Bees.” A peace sign decorates the front. On the roof are yoga mats, crates, and a compost bin. A dog in a bandana rides shotgun, while a passenger plays a ukulele in the back. The license plate reads “ANT1FA.” Caption below: “ANTI-FASCIST EXPEDITIONARY FORCE.”

BREAKING: Mickey meltdown on Truth Social

President attacks Mouse.

#Satire #TinyHands #MakeDisneyGreatAgain
Fake Donald Trump post parody. At the top, a tweet-style message from @realDonaldTrump reads: “I never liked Mickey. Used to be FUNNY, not anymore. TOTAL has-been. Thinks he’s got the BIGGEST HANDS — WRONG. I have the BIGGEST HANDS. He’s got tiny hands, tiny ears. He better not PROTECT that late-night hack!!!! PATHETIC! TOTAL DISASTER. People are saying MICKEY IS FINISHED. Should have his citizenship revoked. Believe me! Thank you for your attention to this matter DJT.” It shows 65M views, dated Feb 22, 2025. Below, a graphic compares Mickey Mouse’s gloved cartoon hands labeled “BIG HANDS” versus a pair of tiny baby hands labeled “tiny hands.”

Colbert’s got nothing to lose.
Stewart could give a fuck less.
Meyers and Fallon — just a matter of time.

So what do you do?
You open the ACME app (now with one-day delivery), order a crate of TNT, maybe throw in a couple of anvils…

…and go out Wile E. Coyote style. 💥
Cartoon of Wile E. Coyote grinning while holding a stick of TNT and standing next to a TV showing Colbert, Fallon, Meyers, and John Oliver. Above him, bold text reads: “Come on boys, if we’re going out, let’s go out with a BANG!” The word “BANG!” is in red comic letters inside a yellow explosion.

During WWII, Disney put their art to work against fascism. Donald Duck starred in Der Fuehrer’s Face, a wild cartoon where he dreams he’s trapped in “Nutzi-land.”

80 later, Donald is on the wrong side of history.

#Disney #WWII #DerFuehrersFace #Satire #HistoryRepeats
Black-and-white cartoon parody of Donald Duck at a desk in a grim Nazi-style setting. A framed portrait of Donald Trump hangs on the wall in place of Hitler. On the desk sits a book labeled Mein Kampf, a bottle marked “Nazi Swastika Sauce & Bugs,” and a saw. A cuckoo clock with a swastika is in the background. The image references the 1943 Disney short Der Fuehrer’s Face, reimagining Donald Duck under Trump’s authoritarian shadow.

They weren’t called terrorists then. They were called heroes.

On June 6, 1944, antifascists stormed Normandy. Fascism didn’t fall on its own — it was resisted.

It was fought. It was defeated.

Resist. Persist.

#NeverForget #DDay #Resist #Antifa
Black-and-white photo of American soldiers landing on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, June 6, 1944. They wade through the surf toward enemy fire. Overlaid text at the top reads: “ANTIFA ‘Terrorists’ Land in Normandy, June 6, 1944.” At the bottom: “They weren’t called terrorists then. They were called heroes.”

The Constitution was exclusionary by design. Yet Enlightenment ideals slipped through the cracks. Abolition, suffrage, civil rights grew like dandelions in the sidewalk. The experiment isn’t finished. Democracy requires stubborn persistence. 🌼
A single dandelion pushes up through a crack in the sidewalk. White seed head against blurred background. Text on the image reads: “Democracy requires stubborn persistence.” The image symbolizes resilience and endurance in difficult conditions.

Kids deserve ice cream trucks, not ICE trucks.

Joy, not fear. Community, not raids. 🍦

Illustration of children lined up at a bright ice cream truck with the words Ice Cream / Helados painted on the side. A smiling vendor hands a popsicle to a child reaching up. The bottom text reads: “Ice Cream Trucks not ICE Trucks.” The image contrasts childhood innocence with the cruelty of immigration raids.

Different places, but the story’s the same.

They all have heartbeats.

Rights shouldn’t depend on our zip codes.

In America, crossing a state line can mean losing basic rights: who you can marry, whether your body is your own, if your vote even counts.

This isn’t “freedom.” It’s a patchwork where liberty is conditional.

Florida’s leaders want to scrap all childhood vaccine mandates.
Even polio. Even measles.

This isn’t freedom. It’s performance politics—anti-intellectualism dressed up as “choice.”

We know what happens when iron lungs fill hospital wards.
We’ve been there before.
