Michael Ramirez Cartoons Are Back on Ricochet!

 

***Note: Due to time constraints, Michael has not been able to reliably post his latest cartoons on Ricochet.  As his manager/publicist, I will be taking over that duty.  His cartoons and essays are available at michaelramirez.substack.com, and most content is free, so sign up if you enjoy daily newsletter updates.  Below is Sunday’s essay, along with the latest cartoon. I’ll be posting regularly, and Michael will comment when he can.

McAllister will be talking to Whiskey Politics Podcast with Dave Sussman later today on this, and other topics. Be sure to check it out.  Preview Open

Obama’s Chair

 

A professor once told me that the secret of truly great visual art is an element of humor that intentionally invites the viewer to smile with the artist. I’d say Michael P. Ramirez achieved that today:

It’s All Unraveling (And Why That’s a Good Thing)

 

Michael RamirezAmerica, tired of being lied to by its coastal betters, chose a President to tear it all down to the studs, from where a more hopeful and stronger country could rise again. Much of the anger that brought Donald Trump into office was certainly directed toward Washington DC’s elites, but also our cultural pillars. With a $20 trillion national debt, politicians had been Weinsteining their constituents for decades and people of both parties have had enough of the D.C./entertainment/sports/media complex.

The only results from the Progressives’ identity politics prescribed by Leftist septuagenarians was to balkanize a once civil union. Meanwhile, the overpaid, yet feckless consultant class on the right finagles their benefactor’s largesse but yield few results. Jabba the Hutt politicians along with their K-Street enablers tied the American voter to his chain, while they focused on reelection. It’s only about their power. From their mahogany walled watering holes in DC, they laugh at us idealistic rubes while ensuring their marble streets remain shiny in National Harbor. Americans weren’t just voting against DC. They were voting against the cultural rot that started decades ago.

Meanwhile, Hollywood, known for facades phonier than Obama’s Greek columns, somewhere along the way went from dream factory with a few crazies, to become the worst stereotype conservatives always believed it was. Its incestual, intellectually shallow, immature, and chronically insecure inhabitants know only two modes: reading someone else’s words for a living or regurgitating Bill Maher’s. These people have spent so much energy on dividing the country into a caste system, they hadn’t realized their product has suffered, relegating themselves to brain-numbing CGI superhero remakes and Oscar-bait no one will ever see, but … another award show to congratulate each other on our brilliance! Movie audiences are responding with their wallets as year-over-year box office receipts have plummeted.

I’m tired. Tired of both sides. Tired of the media, especially Britt, Bill, Sean, Kelly, Anderson and Jake. Tired of intellectual dishonesty from friends who call my side racists and Trump Hitler. Tired of those on my side not admitting we nominated a gift to the Left that will never stop giving, even after #ExplodingCommode2016™ is […]

When the Left dominates music, theater and visual art, its naked attempt to strip away culture can only be answered with events like this one at Lotus Contemporary Art Gallery, 511 Roosevelt, Phoenix, April 22-23:   A conservative band of artists will host a show of “provocative” art, most of it blatantly political.  Marc Stolfi’s […]
