Tsunami Warning by Daniel Boris


New book illustrated by Matt Wuerker

This book is available for free as an ebook, or as a print paperback. I got both!

A new book by Norman Solomon
With cartoons by Matt Wuerker

The Blue Road to Trump Hell

"This book scrutinizes how the behavior of many Democrats assisted Trump's electoral triumphs. That scrutiny is important not only for clarity about the past. It also makes possible a focus on ways that such failures can be avoided in the future."



Press release:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New Book – The Blue Road to Trump Hell – Launching in Print and as Free E-Book

"The Democratic Party enabled Donald Trump to become president twice because of repetition compulsions that still plague the top echelons of the party – undermining its potential to end the real-life nightmare of MAGA control over the federal government," Norman Solomon writes in The Blue Road to Trump Hell: How Corporate Democrats Paved the Way for Autocracy. "This book scrutinizes how the behavior of many Democrats assisted Trump's electoral triumphs. That scrutiny is important not only for clarity about the past. It also makes possible a focus on ways that such failures can be avoided in the future."

To reach a large readership, The Blue Road to Trump Hell is being published in December 2025 not only in print but also as a free e-book that will be widely distributed online. "We're augmenting publication of the paperback original by simultaneously releasing the entire book in digital formats, making it available as a download from BlueRoad.info and many other platforms at no charge," Solomon said.

The book includes eleven full-color cartoons by Matt Wuerker, who has been Politico's editorial cartoonist and illustrator ever since its 2007 launch. In 2012, Wuerker won the Pulitzer Prize for editorial cartooning.

Solomon is national director of RootsAction and executive director of the Institute for Public Accuracy. He is the author of more than a dozen books including War Made Invisible: How America Hides the Human Toll of Its Military Machine (2023) and has written about politics for many publications including The Hill, The Nation, the Guardian, Common Dreams, the Los Angeles Times and Salon.

Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Another 'No Kings' Weekend"!

Inspired by a Bluesky thread about all the DNC astroturf front outfits
hogging all the public protest space, and how they plan on exploiting
the situation in Minnesota. I've seen where the Fifty Fifty One dipshits
and their pals are already making some moves.

     "SCRising has a strong commitment to nonviolent action. We expect
all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with
those who disagree with our values…"

– even if Those Who Disagree are armed, lawless fascist thugs hell-bent
on oppressing, mass-murdering, disappearing and imprisoning us all, and
coming after your own personal posh Liberal ass, right out there in the
street?

"Good Trouble"? Oh, get the hell outta my face. Would it be safe at this
point to discount any opinions from anyone throwing around the phrase
"good trouble"? We're long past that; we need some people with the
cojones to start some bad trouble.

And I gotta love their almost pathological clinging to Nonviolence™
dogma even as the State and Capital literally beat them down in the
streets. It makes me puke. Yeah – it'll be "peaceful" until the pigs
start clobbering their stupid Liberal asses with tear gas, beanbags and
flash-bangers, and anyone who fights back will be labeled an "agitator"
and ratted out.

Can you identify these NCS cartoonists for the Library of Congress?

 The National Cartoonist Society event was at the Library of Congress October 31, 1951.

If you can, please post in the comments or email Sara Duke at sduk at loc.gov (you'll need to reassemble that email address).



First ID from Inkspill's Michael Maslin: I see Otto Soglow in there, dead center with two hats.
