In the nick of time, which is how we do things around here anymore, we have our commentary on Mittens’ SOTU address, which takes place in a few hours from now. They are probably adjusting his chemical component, adding another layer of orange goo to his face, and making sure his tie is properly starched.
But really, the only version of the address on the SOTU you need to read is right here!

I should probably quit pretending that I can get 2 ‘toons done in a week for right now, but I am ever hopeful. Fortunately I have SO MANY relevant ‘toons from Mittens’ first Reign of Terror that you would hardly know they are re-runs…um…I mean Encore Presentations!
Here are some ‘toons featuring Nixon’s Ghost, who I bet is going to have things to say any day now.
And of course, the Lunar New Year is about to start and it’s The Year of the Fire Horse. We haven’t done a new ‘toon for that (it’s coming, I swear) but here’s who was riding the range 12 years ago when the Horse Year last circled around!
I bet Pinky’s girls, Four and Five will be getting ready for their Panda Chronicles Debut with their Year of the Fire Horse Presentation!
Pinky: nobody said anything about FIRE!!!

Well, I got all involved in a printmaking project and so did not finish today’s planned ‘toon, but we have a choice selection of ‘toons from Mittens first reign of terror that are sufficient unto the day, whatever the means!
It is a sad state of affairs that these ‘toons are both relevant and not as bad as things are now. I hope you are able to hold things together and keep voicing your truth. I am trying and sometimes am even successful.

Bob T what is the sound of one paw clapping Panda
In the top five of my favorite 200 films, is The Big Lebowski, a film, that when it came out, came out to lackluster reviews, but over time has been proven to be a cult classic and has many hardcore fans. One of the films fans turns out to be Senator Adam Schiff. During some hearing or event or something, I can’t remember who he was referring to but he quoted the Dude saying to his friend, the semi psychotic bowling buddy, Walter Sobchek: “You’re not wrong, Walter, you’re just an asshole“
At least six of the Coen brother’s films are in my top five favorites. Take that math and suck on it!
…a few weeks ago, there was a hearing when Senator Sheldon Whitehouse was questioning DJT’s personal attorney AG Dead Eyes Pammy Jo about an alleged bribe in the form of $50,000 cash in a bag that was given to one of F45’s henchman. Pammy Jo was extremely evasive as to whether the cash had been returned to the undercover FBI agents or if not returned, declared on the person’s IRS return.
I kept waiting for Senator Schiff to leap up and yell…
So I had to draw this:
Congratulations are in order to Virginia, New Jersey, and NYC for the fabulous outcome to Tuesday’s election. I believe Abigail Spanberger, Mikie Sherrill, and Zohran Mamdani will be great leaders to their respective states and city. I’m riding the wave of hope as far as it will take me.
Stay strong, everyone.

If you haven’t yet seen The Big Lebowski, what are you doing standing around reading The Panda Chronicles?
Nixon’s Ghost makes another appearance as an official guest correspondent on the ZooNooZ panel! Who needs 60 Minutes when you have ZooNooZ?
It’s been quite the week, hasn’t it? Call or email your reps, watch some panda videos, (Binky Li and Queen Bee have been romping up a storm in DC. At least something good is happening there) and then go outside!
I’m listening to Taylor Swift and The Boss, because they are both hot as hell and they are much better to chair dance to than the whining coming out of the WH from F45v2.0.

Bob T winning not whining Panda
I am taking advantage of both my last minute hustle getting ready for an upcoming art show* and my vast archive of Panda ‘toons, especially those dealing with Mittens’ malfeasance when it comes to making bank out of the Oval Office.
Fear not! I’ll be back with some new ‘toons next week!

Everyone who’s anyone is in on the absolutely if we told you, we’d have to kill you top secret chats coming out of the defense department these days.
Fortunately, Frank and Mikey are on the job!
Stuff is getting scary out there. I’m glad Frank and Mikey are on our side.
In other nooz, if we didn’t mention it already, Princess Pinky Junior has arrived in Vienna, to wow the crowds and make her play for world domination, Princess Panda style! Stay tuned!

Anyone want to roll the dice for double or nothing for our social Security Checks?
Yeah, me neither.
I bet soon sarcastic quotation marks when referring to F45 or his office will be considered a terroristic act.

Bob T Fuck ’em if they can’t take a joke Panda
If only, he mused, but no, even his own party members realized that this was a stain on their party, and he had to go. Alas. Today’s GOP has no such self awareness about crimes and stains.
We are at a turning point.
Do we choose the candidates and party that want to give people a bottle of water when they pass out from the heat at their political events? Or do we want the party that tells stricken parents of murdered children that they should “just get over it?”
Do we want JOY or Carnage?
I don’t know about you, but I think the choice is pretty clear.

PS: I am not even going to discuss the latest revelation about RFK Jr. I suspect Frank and Mikey might have something to say about it, or maybe not. They were really offended.
Ya know, I thought about doing something about the trial today, and then I thought, “nah…I don’t want to jinx it by assuming you know who would be found GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY,” so instead I planned this nice little ‘toon about Oreo, the Oreo stealing bear, and THEN, what happens at like 5 AM yesterday morning, my text messages start blowing up with nooz of Binky Li coming to Washington DC, so this time procrastinating worked to my advantage, because I could work the arrival of Binky Li and his girl fren into the ‘toon.
So here ya go! I’m pretty sure Nixon’s ghost will pop in next week to gloat over TFG’s 34 COUNT GUILTY VERDICT.
There will be champagne popping and dancing in the streets tonight. Hopefully the gun totting minions of TFG will be kept under control. Be happy and stay safe, panda friends. We have two new sets of bears to welcome later this year!
Enjoy some Oreos and milk and no double dipping!
