Comic Relief: Aaron McGruder Brings Back The Boondocks In Strip Form Just When We Need Him Most

Source: Victor Decolongon / Getty Aaron McGruder Brings Back The Boondocks Comic Strip S#!t is hard out here. Every day there’s some new political f***ery or racist BS that we have to contend with and honestly, it just gets exhausting. Luckily, there is a man who is able to not only articulate the socio-political sentiments of many Black people, he also knows how to make it funny as hell. Putting the truth inside the candy is what we love about Aaron McGruder and The Boondocks characters that he brought into our lives. Today, Charlagmagne tha God posted the return of McGruder’s beloved comic just in time for the State of the Union address tonight. Peep these Robert Mueller panels featuring Uncle Ruckus. If you’re a cable news junkie then you’ve seen Malcolm Nance airing out the truth about Donald Trump and his shady regime for years now. Yo! LMFAO! Long live Huey and Riley! Even Nicole Wallace was brought into The Boondocks world. Aaron made it pretty clear that we might not get this again or regularly, but damn are we happy to at least have The Boondocks back for the moment.

Getting deported isn’t funny. Getting separated from three kids isn’t funny. ICE is horrible and they shouldn’t be aided by jokes. Wretched of the earth Tomi Lahren thought it was funny and had a tweet making fun of 21 Savage. I got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight ICE agents ready to deport ya. https://t.co/tivP1Ljj8V — Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) February 3, 2019 Then, late as hell in the festivities, Demi Lovato hopped on Twitter to talk about how the memes were funny and baybeeeee she got dragged. It was so bad that she deleted her whole entire account. Again. Welp. Sorry not sorry. Twitter came for both of their a$$es with a dragging of the century. Take a look… watching demi lovato have a meltdown on twitter pic.twitter.com/tuYmXGxqJ7 — нαя∂ι ♡ (@harddiiwhite) February 4, 2019
