It’s day 10 of Trump’s reckless war with Iran, and he’s already wasted nearly $11 BILLION dollars. That’s more than twice as much as what we spend each year on community health centers that provide medical care for low-income & uninsured Americans. Priorities.

Recent reporting reveals that 46 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office, including Emmanuel Damas, who did not receive critical medical attention in detention: "He could not even blink his eyes. There was nothing there. They let him rot in there and die like he had no family."

Anyone else notice this? Mainstream journalists have forgotten their duty to speak truth to power. It is why it is one of the rights written into the Constitution. Political cartoonists are the real and true heroes of the moment.

Cosplaying working class Rafael Cruz went to Princeton and Harvard. When he flees his constituents without power, he stays at the Ritz-Carlton. His wife, Heidi, is Managing Director at the fancy investment firm Goldman Sachs. They are not men & women with callouses on their hands. They are elites.

He really loves that word.

‘Unreal’: Trump directly called out for alleged market manipulation

I’m honored people printed my artwork to carry in the historic No Kings Protests this past weekend! Ironically, I found myself traveling and without access to a printer so I grabbed a few sharpies and a stray piece of cardboard and drew a sign I carried in both the Pasadena and Los Angeles marches.
