The Summary
I will try to post more editorial cartoons in the comments section as I find them this evening. I suspect that there will be many, many more over the next few days.
I expect to resume posting my weekly diary of editorial cartoons on Sunday, April 2nd. I wasn’t able to do so the past few weeks due to work travel and other pressing obligations.
The editorial cartoonists are having a blast. Trump’s legal troubles will keep them busy and working overtime. This (and future) criminal indictments could be interpreted as the full-employment act for the nation’s cartoonists.

The New York Times said that Trump was surprised by the indictment and unsure of his next move. Many of his aides were caught off guard by the timing of the announcement.
“I Am Not a Crook!”
As for FOX “News”...
The conservative network's hosts scrambled to defend the former president's hush money payments to Stormy Daniels — and even got into it with each other
FOX NEWS STRUGGLED in real time to process the first criminal charges ever brought against a president on Thursday night, as the network recoiled from the news that a Manhattan Grand Jury has voted to indict former president Donald Trump.
Gasps could be heard around the set of The Five as the news broke, and anchors lashed out at Prosecutor Alvin Bragg — and in some cases their co-hosts, while reacting to the news.
Host Jesse Watters — keying off the case likely revolving around a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels — railed that there’s no criminality in paying off one’s former lovers. (The legal issue at hand isn’t that Trump paid her, it’s whether the manner of payment ran afoul of New York law and federal election law.
