Jim Carrey Takes on Attorney General Barr in Post-Mueller Report Political Cartoon
Tim Kenneally
Jim Carrey took another artistic jab at President Trump on Wednesday, this time invoking the classic William Golding novel “Lord of the Flies.”Carrey’s latest work, posted to his Twitter account, also showed off the actor/artist’s flair for poetry.The “Kidding” star newest creation depicts a bloated Trump in sunglasses and a red cap bearing the message”Make Me God,” seated and clutching a microphone as his minions poured what appeared to be a Kool-Aid-like beverage down the throats of a crowd. Above his head is a golden “T” — suggesting his personal business ventures — and the American and Russian flags.Also Read: Jim Carrey Sees Red Over Attorney General William Barr in Latest ArtworkThe image, an apparent nod to the mass deaths initiated by cult leader Jim Jones in Jonestown, Guyana, was accompanied by a poem likening Trump to Jack, the savage, power-hungry character from “Lord of the Flies.”“Let’s all drink a toast to the new king of lies, and the minions who help him while democracy dies, and our kids who’ll be taught that the wicked are wise because Potus was Jack from ‘Lord of The Flies,'” Carrey’s message read.“How much poison are you willing to swallow?!” Carrey concluded.Also Read: Jim Carrey Goes Into 'Exorcist' Mode on Trump After Mueller Report Is ReleasedGulp; that’s quite the assessment.Drink in Carrey’s latest artwork below.Let’s all drink a toast to the new king of lies, and the minions who help him while democracy dies, and our kids who’ll be taught that the wicked are wise because Potus was Jack from ‘Lord of The Flies’.

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on possible Russian interference in the 2016 election is in — and so is Jim Carrey’s latest artistic assessment of the political landscape.
Shortly after Mueller submitted his report to attorney general William P. Barr, actor/artist Carrey unveiled his latest work, and it’s clear that he’s waiting to see what Barr will, or won’t, do with the report.
Carrey offered his rendering of Barr with the message, “The Mueller report is out! The question now is…how low will this Barr go?”
Carrey wasn’t the only show business denizen to weigh in after Mueller submitted his report.
“Star Trek” alum and frequent Trump critic George Takei also offered his thoughts on Friday, tweeting, “No matter what Mueller’s report contains, we already know three things: Trump surrounded himself with felons, he obstructed justice on behalf of those felons, and he faces multiple federal and state investigations for other criminal activity … The wheel of justice has many spokes.”
