Not that absurd at this stage #USPolitics #Trump ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

Trump is entering the scene, while behind him Karoline Leavitt, tied up in his long tie, with a growing wooden nose and wearing a large crucifix says, “So many nasty antifa-crats sir, what if the courts won’t let us sool the national guard on them?” Trump’s fist is raised to start the dance, he is thinking ‘fvkfefe genius’ as, from the opposite side an aged and out of condition ‘Village People’ are shooting and dancing their way in.

Trump in a war room leaning over a flat map of America with models of tanks, troops, helicopters, guns on certain ‘blue states’, and even naval vessels off the Californian coast. They are being pushed around by scantily clad women as another woman enters through the door at the back. Trump, lovingly held by Hegseth on one arm and Vance on the other, has lifted his head and turned to the door saying, “Is it my peace prize?”

Every other day #auspol ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

PM Albanese is supporting a group Jewish people who have gathered to remember their tragic losses. As they do, Albanese has turned back over his shoulder, raised his finger to his mouth and ‘shushed’ at an endless landscape of unnamed graves.

WT . . ? #auspol #PNG ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

At the diplomatic table prop, in front of the multiple flag props, PNG PM Murape looks suddenly concerned after signing the Pukpuk defence treaty and done the big pen (mic) drop when Aus PM Albanese leans in and says, “Congratulations on your commitment to capitulate to the whims of the U.S. President”.

Standby #auspol #Israel ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

Cartoon says at the top ‘Standby for a statement by the Foreign Minister on the abduction and imprisonment of Australians by a rogue nation’. Depicts FM Wong as per an official statement but a large hand painted as the Israeli flag comes from behind her, blood stains on arm, while the other hand is on her shoulder, near her neck, restraining her.

Quiz #auspol #Israel #SumudFlotilla #USPolitics ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

A scene from a game show called ‘Without Jeopardy’ the clue on the board reads “Blows a murderous stench; Unbound from mercy and shame; To any place and any flesh; As Nations yield their souls; And consequence itself has perished.” All contestants have written ‘what is Israel?’ although one had written ‘Trump’ first before crossing it out. Everyone is eagerly awaiting the answer from the host.

Trump and Hegseth as babies playing with their toy soldiers. Trump is in the bath crying, “I want pretty boat”, Hegseth has a soldier in each hand - ‘piew’ ‘piew’ ‘piew’ “take that fatty”, he says.

A good visit #auspol #UKPolitics ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

PM Albanese has come out of number 10 after a quick visit. His agenda reads ‘Climate, migration, Israel, aukus’. He bends down to give Larry the cat a scritch, Larry is thinking to him “did they take YOUR balls too?”

Good boy #USPolitics #auspol ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

In a circus tent with red and white stripes finished off with blue bunting decorated with white Star of David’s is Netanyahu standing on the ground stained with blood. He is waving Nobel peace prize in one hand and trying to coax some kind of four-legged Trump creature to jump through a bloodied hoop that he is holding in the other hand.

Stakeholder input #auspol #socialmediaban ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

Sitting, glued to a tv, by themself in a darkish room, someone is tapping away angrily on a mobile device. Next to them, a dog has its paws over its eyes as two teenagers walk by. One says, “OMG, this social media ban might be like targeting the wrong ones”, the other replies, “Hundret p’cent” (hundred percent)

One from the archives #auspol #USPolitics

Trump is with his doctor, in the background, with a sly grin, a man is holding a huge Australian branded suppository. Trump is banging the desk in a tantrum and saying to his doctor, “not until you add 25%* to it!!”
*now 100%

Did you mention we are still the 2nd biggest exporter of fossil fuels and the 5th biggest producer - with plans only to increase this output?

Why indeed #USPolitics #Trump #AMA #auspol ko-fi.com/hudsoncartoons

A couple of nurses walking through a hospital, one says, “Maybe paracetamol IS harming kids, why else would he say it?” As they walk the orange line on the floor leads into what appears to be the sexual assault ward where a number of young girls sit silently waiting to be seen, orange handprints all over, some covering their mouths.

Thoughts and prayers
#USPolitics #auspol t.co/pwQVDLYzH2

In a stadium full of people somewhere, a man is hugging a huge wooden crucifix and looking reverently skyward. The crucifix is adorned with the headwear of the ku klux klan, and a glow Emirates from behind it.
