Wallet Pain: Top 10 Cartoons This Week

Post author By Daryl Cagle
Post date June 2, 2026

The cost of everything remains the top story for most people, with Trump’s war in Iran causing prices to rise at the fastest pace in three years.

It’s not just gas and groceries. As Dave Granlund highlighted in our most-reprinted cartoon of the week, home prices are also rising to unaffordable levels, as are the interest rates people are being forced to pay. With inflation rising, don’t expect that to change anytime soon.

I chuckled at Dave Whamond’s cartoon about a family’s credit cards being maxed out. The solution? Be like Trump and put in a reflecting pool. Why not add an arch over your driveway while you’re at it?

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Dave Granlund

#2. Gary McCoy

This is a nice how-to course on how to draw Trump bashing political cartoons. Come look!

#3. John Darkow

#4. Dave Whamond

#5. Chris Weyant

#6. Pat Bagley

#7. Dave Granlund

#8. John Darkow

#9. Jonathon Brown

#10. Dave Whamond

Losing Faith in the American Dream: Top 10 Political Cartoons of the Week on Economy, AI Jobs, and Everyday Struggles

Post author By Daryl Cagle
Post date May 16, 2026

Can anyone still achieve the American Dream with skyrocketing housing costs, gas prices approaching $5 a gallon, and AI robots on the verge of replacing human workers? Paul Duginski doesn’t think so — and his powerful cartoon on losing faith in the American Dream is our most reprinted political cartoon of the week.

Duginski turns the classic “climb the economic ladder to success” into a literal fairy tale, capturing widespread economic anxiety in 2026. Many of this week’s top cartoons also tackle the growing fear of AI taking jobs, from overworked employees to new graduates losing opportunities to machines. These relatable editorial cartoons highlight the biggest issues facing Americans right now.

#1. Paul Duginski – Losing Faith in the American Dream

#2. Dave Granlund – Trump Underwater in Polls

This is a nice how-to course on how to draw Trump bashing political cartoons. Come look!

#3. Dave Whamond – Transforming the Workplace with AI

#4. John Darkow – AI Just Took My Job

#5. R.J. Matson – Partisan Redistricting Redraws Party Symbols

#6. Gary McCoy – Mother’s Day… What a Gas

#7. Dave Whamond – Another Reboot

#8. Bob Englehart – The Hantavirus Speaks

#9. Chris Weyant – Treacherous Waters

Rising Gas Prices Hit Home: Top 10 Most Reprinted Cartoons This Week

Post author By Daryl Cagle
Post date May 11, 2026

Trump’s war in Iran continues to hit us all back home, with gas prices continuing to climb, along with the cost of just about everything else.

Dave Granlund’s cartoon about a lawn-mowing kid asking for gas money upfront was our most-reprinted cartoon this week, and for good reason. Everything from shipping costs to toothpaste are being impacted by the rising cost of oil.

Spirit Airlines knows this well. The budget airline company went out of business this week largely due to the rising cost of fuel. I laughed at Dave Whamond’s cartoon, which transformed the defunct airline into a Spirit of Halloween store. But I mostly agree with the sentiment of Bruce Plante’s popular cartoon about the world college graduates are entering: “We are toast.”

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Dave Granlund

#2. Bruce Plante

Robots vs. Humans: Top Ten Cartoons of the Week

Post author By Daryl Cagle
Post date April 26, 2026

It’s time for another fun week of “Which jobs are being killed by A.I.?”

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, announced it was eliminating 10% of its workforce this week in its push for A.I. Oracle is also cutting thousands of jobs as it invests heavily in A.I., while Microsoft is offering buyouts.

Sometimes, all you can do is laugh. Editors liked Dave Whammond funny riff on a robot-filled “Office Space,” while Jeff Koterba had a more serious take on humans losing in the race for humanity.

While robots were front an center, our most-reprinted cartoon of the week was a riff on companies looking for tariff refunds drawn by John Darkow. They’ll probably just use the money to triple-down on A.I., anyway.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. John Darkow

#2. Dave Whammond

#3. Jeff Koterba

#4. Bob Englehart

#5. Dave Whammond

#6. Chris Weyant

#7. Bruce Plante

#8. Dave Ganlund

#9. Dave Granlund

#10. John Darkow

Iran, NASA, Melania and Trump! Top ten cartoons of the week

Post author By Daryl Cagle
Post date April 18, 2026

A war in Iran, a beef with the Pope, inflation crushing the middle class. What a time to be an American!

This week, the nation’s top cartoonists remind us we’re living in challenging times. Dave Granlund’s popular cartoon highlights the staycations many of us are being forced to plan, while Paul Duginski highlights the impact of Trump’s policies on the heartland.

Our most popular cartoon, drawn by Bruce Plante, is a thank you note to NASA and the Artemis mission for providing a brief distraction from all the bad news. Unfortunately, the next Artemis missing isn’t scheduled to launch until mid-2027 at the earliest, so we’ll need to find something else to divert our attention until then.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Bruce Plante

#2. Dave Granlund
