Michael de Adder appears to no longer be under contract with The Washington Post. He's not listed as one of their three cartoonists on their Editorial Cartoon page, although Ann Telnaes, Edith Pritchett, and Michael Ramirez are. de Adder's contributor page now reads "Michael de Adder was a political cartoonist for The Washington Post." [emphasis added] and his last cartoon was January 16th. I reached out to Mr. de Adder, whom I know slightly, but have not received a reply from him. A WaPo source confirmed that he is no longer with the paper, but did not know the reason for it.
The Post still does not have a full-time editorial cartoonist, continuing to disdain the legacy of Herblock and Toles.
