We’re furious.

White supremacists, conspiracy theorists, and far right extremists have gone unchallenged long enough. The armed rampage at the U.S. Capitol on Jan 6th was not the end of their attacks on democracy.

We urgently need to do more to fight against the far right and its violence — while we still can.

Please join us in our fury and help us amplify the voices of the authors and activists fighting for our future.

Matt Bors

Matt Bors relentlessly skewers the latest absurdities of American politics and culture. From war to religion to obsessive lawn care, Bors’ cartoons dissect and expose the news, ‘avoiding the Donkeys and Elephants of many of his peers,’ to make readers think and laugh about real issues. Bors’ unique cartoons feature a vivid style and biting humor that have earned him a great deal of praise. Drawn! Magazine editor John Martz says that Bors is ‘one of few in his field whose work redefines what an editorial cartoon should look like.’
