They Are So Put Upon.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Casino Murder Case.

Ahh, racist whining about taxes. Behold the awesome patriotism of a man who feels he's owed everything and owes nothing, and how dare you call him on his bullshit!

Why, When You Put It Like That, It Makes Total Sense!

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Dragon Murder Case.

You know, I'm genuinely torn as to what's the most fascinating part of all this wall of crazyfail, that Muir doesn't realize he's swapped out how the Evil Conspiracy of Evil works yet again, that Russia's back to being a bad guy, or that at the bottom lies Muir's eternal conviction that the things he wants just CAN'T be unpopular, that the Democrats can't just win elections, that it has to be an evil plot that gets them back into power and makes things he supports fail. (And when he himself finally acknowledges something he supported failed, this does not lead to any general reevaluation of his beliefs.)  This is a man who feels powerless when those he supports hold power. And again, he just can never ask himself why that is, because the actual answer would destroy him.

It's Really Happening. Offscreen.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Kennel Murder Case.

So, the same racist joke as before, only even more lifelessly done. 

Oh, and Muir still doesn't understand how H1B visas work.

Well, let's see if Muir's going to gloat about Maduro tomorrow, or Monday, when things are likely to really be going off the rails.

In Today's Episode, The Part Of 'El Dorado Dad' Will Be Played By A Clip Art Caricature....

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Scarab Murder Case.

As Muir reminds us that A) he will entertain downgrading the cast's circumstances, but he won't commit to it,  B) El Dorado Dad is fucking scum, and C) Muir has completely turned on a Congress that the Right largely controls, let's just really soak in the... art of today's strip, because... damn. El Dorado Dad's mustache looks very close to a crudely drawn mouth. That is just... shit.

You Support ONE Genocidal Dictator, And It's Like You're A Criminal!

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Bishop Murder Case.

A reminder that Sam was offering to hold Putin's gold in her depository. And that this was when Gunpowder was declaring itself sovereign.

I'm saying this because it amuses me that Muir wants to refer back to a plotline that he seems largely to have decided to sweep under the rug, it should be remembered just how batshit it was.
