Our diversity and disobedience is our strength. Stay curious. Keep asking questions. Keep reorganizing.

Everyone watched silently as the ship glowed with flames and wondered what was next.

The rolling shambles continues. And the painting continues. Defiance.

Broken things by careless people.

Snapshot of the ongoing apocalypse.

Peace requires effort. Peace is not the default state. Peace comes from collaboration, negotiation, and understanding.

We’re here, Seattle 🪧🤘 #indivisible

Going full Ted Lasso with my protest sign. 🪧🤘⚡️ Believe in citizen-centered government. Believe in participation. Believe in collaboration. #Seattle #indivisible #NationalSecurity

Every one of my paintings is a protest sign. “Flight Plan” #internationalrelations #nationalsecurity

It’s time, Seattle! See you at the Space Needle.

Helicopter for your weekend. #nationalsecurity #signalgate

Just another WTF day in America. Painting about human folly continues. #signalgate #natsec

When everyday is like WTF. Bring it on.

Every Democratic Governor should issue and sign an Executive Order making it illegal to pay anyone to sign a petition, and likewise illegal to accept any form of payment to sign petition. They should do this before they go to sleep tonight.

Portrait of a civilization floating on the river of fire. Hostile Witness project.

On the artist’s palette gathers the shit of the world to paint a portrait of us.

Imagination. Emancipation. Resistance.

Painting human folly and power up close in America. Hostile Witness.

Pursue the complexity or it will pursue you.

Smells Like Team Spirit

Pursue the complexity or it will pursue you.

Human tragedy. Human folly. Hot mess.

Partially hoping for a good Chicken Kyiv recipe from episode one with the Cold War intrigue. Thank you and congratulations @goatrodeo.bsky.social and @benjaminwittes.bsky.social from a fan and Lawfare supporter. NatSec Nerd Power.

Watched paint dry this week. Because that’s what painters do. You’re welcome.

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

Panopticon ready for the weekend. US 2025.

Hostile Government Takeover It's a bop

Asking again for a friend.

After a friend enquired about the protests happening in Seattle I genuinely responded that our top news story was the Orca Whales 🐳 frolicking in the sound. Sorry not sorry. Scroll cleanser. westseattleblog.com/2025/02/phot...

Drawing matters. Appreciate you @mluckovich.bsky.social existing. ✌️✊

Listening to @lawfare.bsky.social and @benjaminwittes.bsky.social break down the litigation in progress while flipping through Judge Dredd is my coping strategy. Prefer the Brian Bolland drawings most. Artists are the canaries in the coal mine yet again.

Art is power. ✊

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” (Orwell.) This is where we are. The only antidote is telling the truth no matter the cost.

For my national security nerds, here’s my painting inspired by Munich. #MSC2025 “Civilization WTF”. #natsec Follow for more slow burn painting social commentary.

Does every day have to be the first day of the aftermath? Asking for a friend. “First day of the aftermath” painting.

Trump's latest power grab is allowing DOGE to access our bank accounts, health records, and Social Security numbers with no transparency or accountability. Tell Congress: Keep DOGE out of our data.

Appreciate when @benjaminwittes.bsky.social tries to comfort us that justice will prevail one day and every enabler will go down with Patel. One day.

Nearly HALF A BILLION DOLLARS of food is rotting because of Trump and Elon’s illegal USAID freeze. Food that would have fed hungry children and saved lives — being wasted. www.cbsnews.com/news/usaid-t...

Huge fan of #GirlSecurity and it's mission. Appreciate you, Lauren for all that you're doing to raise awareness and empower women and citizens to participate in the world.

We will just come up with other words to subvert the system. Instead of “feminism” we’ll use “kindness” and “multitasking”. Be ungovernable.

Stay vigilant. Triple check everything you read. Seek original sources. Truth is the first casualty. It’s always been about power. “First day of the aftermath,” painting detail.

By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes. From @lawfare.bsky.social and @goatrodeo.bsky.social

Scorched earth February 2025.

Key lessons: *Follow the Money, But Also the Data *The Battle Over USAID is (Mostly) Not About Foreign Aid But About Power *The Aggressive Push for Deferred Resignation Reveals Weakness *The Credibility of DOGE is Gone *Career Civil Servants Pushing Back Against Illegality Deserve Our Support

Snap out of it, America. The warning lights are flashing red. My latest. www.thedailybeast.com/yes-its-a-co...

EXCLUSIVE: The Bureau of the Fiscal Service is a sleepy part of the Treasury Department. It’s also where, sources say, a 25-year-old engineer tied to Elon Musk has admin privileges over the code that controls Social Security payments, tax returns, and more.

NEW: Marko Elez, Musk operative at Treasury, not only isn't limited to read only access (has admin privileges) but has already made extensive code changes to the Treasury Dept payment system. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/musk-...
