Trudeau has now made that decision and it is today.

JHB - so that we all might share with others outside of DU, could you show us the links to those images?

You should see something like, "View image", or "Copy image location", either of which will reveal the URI of the image. Whatever software you are using must have the source location of the image in order for you to see the image; all you have to do is get the software to reveal that location to you.

I added spaces around // and . so you would see the links, not the images.

However, you can't post the image directly from GoComics; they've set up their display in a way that doesn't give a direct link to the image.

For the images displayed in the OP, today's strip was via ArcaMax, an aggregation site
https://www.arcamax.com/thefunnies/doonesbury/

For the two 1974 strips, I made screen captures of the strips from GoComics and put them on the Imgur site I use for this situation, when I can't link to original source images.

Since from your discussion with Hermit-the-Prog ( thanks for the assist, HtP) I gather that you're not familiar with methods for posting images, what I've done below is repost the image URLs from the OP but with the website set in bold using DU's standard tools (the b/i/u/link/excerpt/etc. found above "message text" when replying). Doing that breaks the link in the "background" so an image doesn't appear, but if you copy it directly from your screen the URL you copy won't have the bold tagging. so you'll be able to copy and paste directly to the images.

Leading up to yesterday’s. Indeed, I was wholly unavailable for the one in 1974.

Thanks for posting, JHB!
