The selected cartoons appeared first in other publications, either in print or online, or on social media, and are credited appropriately.

Bruce MacKinnon | Halifax Chronicle-Herald

Bruce MacKinnon depicts Lady Justice being assaulted by the Republican Party in the wake of Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations against US Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. She has accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were teenagers, but the GOP has backed Kavanaugh to the hilt.

Mike Ramirez | Political cartoon

Mike Ramirez depicts Donald Trump’s dilemma over firing deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein. Rosenstein allegedly suggested secretly recording Trump and invoking the 25th amendment to remove him from the US presidency.

Carlos Latuff | Twitter

Carlos Latuff reacts to the protest led by women Saturday in Brazil against the candidacy of right-wing frontrunner Jair Bolsonaro in the upcoming presidential elections. People call Bolsonaro racist, misogynist, fascist and homophobic, and Latuff depicts the female symbol kicking out the Nazi swastika.

Morten Morland | The Times

Morten Morland has a take on UK’s former foreign secretary Boris Johnson lashing out at PM Theresa May for her proposed ‘Chequers plan’, whereby she is seeking a common rulebook for the UK and the EU for goods, but not services. Johnson called it deranged and preposterous. Morland refers to the ongoing US vs Europe Ryder Cup golf tournament, and depicts May asking Johnson if it is ‘us’ (the UK) against Europe. 

Pxmolina | Twitter

Pxmolina asks the people of Nicaragua to act immediately as Daniel Ortega’s government may soon criminalise protests in the country. “The individuals and organisations that call for these illegal displacements will be brought to justice,” the police have threatened in a press note.
