OUR BATHROOM MIRRORS ARE VITAL TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY

My Charlie Kirk animation is STILL banned on TikTok for “hateful behavior.” Turning Point USA and the Charlie Kirk Show accounts are up and running though! (not sure if I should blame the outgoing Chinese owners or the incoming pro-Trump ownership?)

Keep in mind, Comey was indicted by the 3rd-place runner-up in the Miss Colorado USA pageant (2010) who has never prosecuted a case.

These AI-generated utopian images in the Gaza redevelopment "plan" turned my stomach and planted the seeds for this cartoon & post… A techno-futuristic utopia for Gaza open.substack.com/pub/markfior... #gaza #middleeast #trump #netanyahu #genocide #ai #cartoon

ICYMI, Trump stands up for throwing cigarette butts on the beach. No, crazy ranting man, I have not seen the "massive amounts of garbage, almost too much to do anything about" flowing past San Francisco. (& I've spent a good deal of time on a surfboard in that water.)

Trump's defense of throwing cigarette butts on the beach, while pointing out the sea is one big mat of Asian trash off the California coast. www.c-span.org/clip/united-... (Apologies, C-Span, I did not know my snarky description would end up on your site.)

Just a smidge ironic that this cartoon was instantly banned on TikTok,🤬 yet Charlie Kirk & Turning Point USA's accounts are up and running, pumping out Saint Charlie Kirk nonsense. "Removed for: 'hateful behavior'" Hmmm, was it the flying bats?

🙏 RIP Charlie Kirk, patron saint of hate 😡 markfiore.substack.com/p/charlie-ki... (He was a white nationalist who said racist, xenophobic, anti-gay, anti-trans, antisemitic, misogynist, anti-Muslim things while helping elect an anti-democratic autocrat — but, hey, he spoke to college kids!)

Say what you will about Charlie Kirk, I fully support the idea of fireworks at my memorial service.

LET'S GET RRRRREAAAAADY TO DISSSSSSSEMMMMMBBLLE!

EXCLUSIVE: Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

...

I don't recall the part in the Bible where St. Paul said, "I think it’s worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the second amendment…”

Kimmel out, autocracy in! Just like McCarthyism, but worse… markfiore.substack.com/p/autocracy-...

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

Li'l Trumplandia is growing up. We're going from a nascent autocracy to a burgeoning autocracy. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Now that's a lede... "A mass “doxing” effort to track down, intimidate and harass people perceived not to have sufficiently mourned the killing of the rightwing activist Charlie Kirk was endorsed on Monday by JD Vance." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is the same guy.

I am VERY agitated and have yet to receive one penny from ANY leftist NGO, let alone millions. I'll keep checking the mailbox though...

Yes, two things can be true: 1.) Charlie Kirk was a racist, xenophobic, misogynist bully. 2.) Assassinations are bad.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer. The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial. Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

Meanwhile, the ICE majority takes over SCOTUS. (But don’t worry! Squi’s pal Brett says it’s just “common sense!”) Another step in our early-phase autocracy… markfiore.substack.com/p/scotus-ice

Well this sure puts to rest the idea that we are living in anything but an autocracy: wapo.st/45VsenS

"Chicago Midway Blitzkrieg" was probably too on-the-nose. #trump #stephenmiller #fascism #ice #immigration #chicago

ICE in Chicago "Operation Midway Blitz" literally pushes Trump's Epstein story down the page.

Okay, the version I imagined is a little more succinct. (And much less creepy than the original.) markfiore.substack.com/p/make-ameri... #predatorinchief #epstein #epsteinfiles #trump #donaldtrump

The propaganda machine is spinning out of control… with seemingly nothing to hold it back, certainly not shame, and clearly not fear of any kind of accountability down the line.

if only there was a term for waging war against your own country.

People in the National Guard have a right to be pissed. Just playthings for America's Rising Dictator. Much more here! markfiore.substack.com/p/be-all-tru... #trump #animated #cartoon #satire #nationalguard #military #democracy #autocracy

NEW: More than two decades after victims and families of the 9/11 attacks began trying to hold the Saudi government responsible for aiding the Qaida terrorists who carried out the plot, a judge has ruled that a lawsuit against the kingdom can go to trial.

Today we learned that wind farms: 1.) blow up the electronics on trains & cars 2.) kill fish & whales 3.) contribute to swarm drone attacks on "our most populous part of our country, the Pacific Northwest." Thanks, Doug Burgum!

In which we learn that RFK’s pet coatimundi attacked his mother and sent her into premature labor

Another day, another burst of Trump disinformation about magical California water valves. markfiore.substack.com/p/animation-... #misinformation #disinformation #trump #california #water @katestarbird.bsky.social

read trump's new executive order on domestic military dplymt + vigilante "portal." one of the reasons i am happy to be an independent journalist is so I can say that this is crazy, fascist, brownshirts shit without getting pulled into a meeting with PR for "opening us up to criticism from the right"

He didn't just invoke MLK's "arc of the moral universe" line. He added that the arc won't bend itself and people need to step up to make that change happen. Absolutely right. Pitch perfect.

Will you people just hurry up and riot already? Martial law doesn't make itself! (Okay, maybe it does.)

These guys are in a whole heap of trouble. www.defense.gov/News/Feature...

Pardon the quick Facebook rant: It is beyond me how such an awful website became so successful & huge. I'm not even talking abt the undermining democracy/hurt kids/rabbit hole stuff, I just mean on the technical side. UX is SO frustrating, I give up. (I try to use it to post cartoons, that's it.)
