Talking with Cartoonists x3

Three pulitzer prize-winning cartoonists sat down for interviews recently and looked back at their careers, the state of political discourse in America, the Iraq War, and the dumpster fire that is the Republican party.

David Horsey notes how the Jan. 6 Committee has made it easer to talk about Trump’s crimes:

Jim Morin talks about the waste that was the Iraq War 20 years later:
