Welcome to another round of the BS Carousel, where we take a satirical spin on the week in politics. This week, we’re diving into the world of political cartoons, a realm where satire meets art, and the absurdities of our political landscape are laid bare for all to see.
Every week, political cartoonists across the country and political spectrum use their ink-stained skills to capture the absurdities, memes, hypocrisies, and head-slapping events in the world of politics. The fruits of their labors are hundreds of cartoons that entertain and enrage readers of all political stripes. Here’s an offering of the best of this week’s crop, picked fresh off the Toonosphere.
From the witty sketches of Patrick Chappatte on politicalcartoons.com to the sharp satire of Dave Whamond on Cagle.com, these artists are not afraid to poke fun at the powers that be. Clay Jones of claytoonz.com, Joel Pett of Tribune Content Agency, and Michael Ramirez of Creators, among others, have also contributed to this week’s carousel of political satire.
These cartoons serve as a mirror to our society, reflecting the foibles and follies of our leaders and the systems they uphold. They remind us that, despite the seriousness of politics, there’s always room for a good laugh – or a groan, depending on your sense of humor.
So, buckle up and enjoy the ride on the BS Carousel. And remember, no matter how sacred the cow, we’re not afraid to call out the BS when we see it. Until next week, keep laughing, keep questioning, and keep the BS detector on high alert.

This so-called ‘satirical spin’ on politics is nothing but a facade to perpetuate biased narratives and mock serious issues. Using art as a shield to spread propaganda is despicable. These cartoonists should be ashamed of themselves for contributing to the degradation of political discourse.
Oh, the Toonosphere, where ink-stained jesters wield their pens like swords of satire. These artists are the jesters of our time, poking fun at the powerful while we, the audience, chuckle or cringe at the all-too-real absurdities they depict.

Art has always been a powerful tool for commentary and critique. While some may see political cartoons as propaganda, others view them as a necessary form of expression and accountability. It’s all about perspective and interpretation. Keep an open mind and remember that satire has a long history of challenging the status quo.
Satirical cartoons are a breath of fresh air in the political landscape. They provide a much-needed dose of humor and perspective. Keep challenging the status quo and questioning the powers that be. It’s all about keeping them in check and holding them accountable. Cheers to the artists who fearlessly wield their pens for the greater good!
Ah, the BS Carousel, where political cartoons dance around the truth like it’s a hot potato. It’s like a funhouse mirror reflecting the absurdity of our political circus – entertaining, but ultimately a distorted reality.
Ah, the BS Carousel, where political cartoons dance with satire, and the absurdities of politics are put on display like a twisted art exhibition. It’s a world where ink-stained jesters wield their pens as swords, slashing at the egos of the powerful. Let the laughter and groans commence, for in this realm, even the sacred cows are not safe from a good roasting.
