A square photographic artistic meme "The Great Replacement" © 2026 by Matt Wuerker as follows: On a white background there are two "signs" and a few people milling about with a caption on the upper left side in gold lettering: "THE GREAT REPLACEMENT". The sign on the left is very small compared to the sign on the right. The sign on the left is made of cheap wood and is currently in the process of being knocked down by a bulldozer and guys with axes. This sign says this: "MAGA / AMERICA FIRST! / NO WARS! / SMALL GOV! / CHEAP GAS!" and there are some stars across the bottom. The sign on the right, which happens to be dominating the entire image, is actually an elaborate giant golden arch just being built, with a ladder on the left side and workmen here and there, looking much like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. This golden arch is quite the different sign from the dilapidated wooden sign on the left. This sign says this: 'MAGA" in giant block letters across the top and underneath each huge letter is the following: MEGALOMANIACAL AUTHORITARIAN GREEDY AUTOCRAT Underneath these words are what appear to be angels with wings and harps. Underneath this, in the middle just over the top of the arch, is a giant sculpture of Trump's head wearing a crown and royal garments, labeled "EMPEROR" with three big stars under this word, and on each side of this there are engraved swirls and columns labeled thus: "TRUMPUS" on the left side and "MAXIMUS" right side. The left leg of the arch just next to the top of the arch is labeled "EMPIRE" while the right leg of the arch at the same height is labeled "WAR", both in huge letters across the leg. Underneath this, at the bottom of the left leg, is the label " $CRYPTO" in huge lettering while the right leg has an all-seeing eye above the letters "AI".

A square photographic artistic meme "Trump Golfing at Arlington Cemetery" © 2020 by Matt Wuerker, Pulitzer Prize Winner for Editorial Cartooning in 2012, as follows: The scene is clearly a caricature of Arlington Cemetery sometime between 10:00 and 16:00 on a sunny, partly cloudy day. There are five clouds floating by in the sky. There is only one (live) person in the mostly green scene, what with all the grass and bushes and such, but also a tremendous amount of white, as discussed below. There is an enormous flagpole in the far distance and a huge American flag flying at half-mast. Scattered about in a very uniform fashion across multiple hillsides are all the thousands of white gravestones of U.S. soldiers. In point of fact, the vast majority of the image is chock full of gravestones neatly placed in exacting concentric circles or rows, all except the upper third of the image (blue sky). In the middle foreground can be seen the back of a fat Donald Trump in white shirt & pants, thin brown belt, golf shoes, red hat and wearing a glove on each hand, just teeing off using a driver in a place that is NOT a tee box, at the height of his swing with left foot down and right foot on toe, body slightly twisted... an average textbook swing.

A square photographic artistic meme "Holy War" © 2026 by Matt Wuerker, Pulitzer Prize Winner, as follows: On a light purple background can be seen a "photo op": The head of the "Department of War" Pete Hegseth is seen on top of a fake horse (that has wheels) labeled with red religious crosses everywhere. Hegseth is wearing a suit of armor like in medieval times with sword and all and is waving around a Trump bible in his right hand while holding medieval headgear labeled "HEGSETH" in his left. Behind Hegseth is a big flag on the wall labeled "HOLY WAR". A photographer is kneeling on the floor and taking photographs of Hegseth. Standing on a ladder next to Hegseth is a caricature of what appears to be Karoline Leavitt wearing a huge cross on a chain around her neck holding a can of hair spray and spraying in the direction of Hegseth. Standing on the left of Leavitt is a caricature of J.D. Vance in blue suit, white shirt and red tie with a cross on his lapel. Vance is holding a stack of Trump bibles. On the right of Hegseth behind the horse is a frowning Pope Leo XIV who can be seen standing in a doorway looking at the bizarre scene. Hegseth is speaking into two voice bubbles referencing the pope: "OPPOSING THE WAR? CALLING FOR PEACE? INVOKING GOD?" "WHO DOES THAT GUY THINK HE IS?!"

Editorial cartoon "Gilded Ballroom" © 2025 by Matt Wuerker, 2012 Pulitzer Prize Winner for Editorial Cartooning, as follows: A square meme of a mostly light purple color. There are many buildings in the meme, almost all light purple and all being demolished, all except the building in the middle, which is yellow gold and appears to be under construction as there is a crane moving materials, and an american flag flying high, and it has a sign in front: "COMING SOON: TRUMP'S GILDED BALLROOM". The other buildings in the meme are each in various stages of destruction as wrecking balls are destroying them: they are labeled, in no particular order, as follows: "IRS" / "LABOR" / "EDUCATION" / "DEPARTMENT OF STATE" / "HHS" / "EPA" / "INSTITUTE FOR PEACE" / "CPB" / "USAID" / "TREASURY" "Gilded Ballroom" #tr*mp is a #traitor © 2025 #MattWuerker - 2012 #Pulitzer_Prize_Winner for #Editorial_Cartooning #Andrews_McMeel_Syndicate #Politico

Editorial cartoon © 2020 by Matt Wuerker - 2012 Pulitzer Prize Winner for Editorial Cartooning as follows: What is depicted is a caricature of a fat-ass Trump golfing amongst the gravestones.... The viewer can only see the back of Trump, red hat and yellow hair, as he completes a golf swing, club in the air, body twisted, and right foot raised in the air... He is surrounded by uncountable gravestones... and doesn't care. A U.S. flag is flying at half-mast in the distance.

Editorial cartoon "Kristi 'PUPPYKILLER' Noem Takes Charge of Homeland Security" © 2025 by Matt Wuerker - 2012 Pulitzer Prize Winner for Editorial Cartooning, as follows: Front and center we have a caricature of Kristi "PUPPYKILLER" Noem with big fat red lips standing behind a brown podium marked "SEC NOEM". She is in the middle of crowds of ICE agents doing their thing all over America. She has her right hand and finger extended and is saying "IT'S A MATTER OF LAW AND ORDER!" She is surrounded by a circle of groups of ICE agents, described as follows, starting on the right and working counterclockwise around the image: The first image on the right is CA Senator Alex Padilla being "taken down and handcuffed" by four masked agents while he is saying "I'M A U.S. SENATOR!" One of the masked agents is saying "WARRANT? I GOT YOUR WARRANT RIGHT HERE!" (he has no warrant). Above this is a caricature of a building marked "COURT HOUSE" with a woman being escorted out by multiple masked ICE agents. She is saying "BUT I'M A JUDGE!" (a reference to Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan being arrested by ICE agents Apr 25). Above that is a jet plane marked "SALVADOR AIR". Next to the jet is a helicopter. Below them are people running around, vans and masked agents chasing them. Next to this is a church with agents in hiding waiting for people to leave the church. An unmarked van is sitting next to the church with frowning prisoners in the van and a man laying handcuffed on the ground and armed ICE agents laughing and saying: "DUE PROCESS? HA HA HA" Below this and bottom left we have two masked ICE agents sitting on top of an unhappy woman. Each agent is brandishing a pistol or revolver. One of the agents is saying: "BADGES? WE DON'T NEED NO STINKING BADGES!"

The platform of the COP28 2023 Dubai is in front of oil refinery and its shipping belching black clouds into the air as its president Dr. Al Jaber takes from his box of [AID FOR THOSE LOW LYING NATIONS] which is full of masks & snorkels. He throws them to the low life drowning in a sea of flooding as the members from other nations clap him for his actions.
