Unbelievable. Trump-aligned figures are now trying to raid the U.S. Treasury by turning their own criminal and unethical conduct into giant payout claims and the DOJ is actually entertaining it.

Got my contributor copies the other day! Cover art for “Awkward On The Rocks” by Marcel Feldmar

Trump is having his DOJ pay himself and his friends millions of dollars, and Republican Senators put a $500k payoff to themselves in the shutdown bill. They’re stealing our tax dollars while telling you the mom on SNAP wanting to buy a box of cookies for her kids is the problem.

PREMIUM EVENT: Join me and George Conway and for a members-only live podcast exploring why Republicans capitulated to Trump, the latest in the Trump-Epstein saga and what’s at stake for American democracy. Tuesday, November 18 at 7pm ET | Live on Zoom newsletters.democracydocket.com/conway-podcast

Is Donald Trump putting his thumb on the scale for Paramount-Skydance CEO David Ellison in this bidding war? Perhaps because of Paramount's $16 MILLION donation to Trump's Presidential Library? This reeks of corruption.

Nother one :). This guy has a frog. 5”x7” wall plaque. More tomorrow unless I decide to finish the last 2 tonight.

Children and babies will suffer because of the Trump-caused chaos surrounding SNAP benefits. Completely unacceptable. @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social

Alright let’s do this one more time! So stoked to be rejoining the Spiderverse crew - in theaters June 18, 2027!🕷️

Full art for the Game Knights @commandcast.bsky.social dueling dragons kickstarter playmats! A really fun challenge to create two mirrored pieces that connect together, but also work separately. They came up with the idea for growth and decay, and I decided to go with dragons 🐲

sure sex is great but have you ever supported your artist friends during the holidays by buying their lovely work?

Somewhere out there someone who’s the best at what they do is terrified that they have imposter syndrome while a bunch of barely literate pedophiles are very calmly running the world

The experience of seeing a glacier is something else! Here are some studies I did on location over the summer. I’d been trying to paint from this vista all week but it was constantly covered in cloud... until the last day! 😅 Hooray! #iceland #landscape #scape #art #pleinair #oilpainting Photo

I had the honor of making this painting for Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein.

I saw this illustration by @annafollies.bsky.social on Tumblr today and instantly lost it. Still missing Fergus every day. 💔 www.tumblr.com/annafollies

it's funny how some versions of your own work you kinda shed as you go along- I'm still proud of these sketches from 2014 from what eventually became Shardbound, but in a lot of ways it's a look & feel I've grown away from

Thumbs up

👀 Slide deeper into the dark,someone hungry for the Spotlight is waiting for you at the end. #DnD

I am now 1/3 of the way through my lifespan pls share my art? :3

It was this time last year that I was wholly distracted from pressing project deadlines by making this ragtag troupe. Currently resisting the pull to add new recruites...

Fast delivery via @peow.bsky.social: Linnea Sterte's incredibly beautiful work arrived! I've browsed through it a bit and I'm thrilled! Thanks for the tip, @jimmymakepeace.bsky.social! I can hardly wait to immerse myself in this world, the art is incredible! @decassette.bsky.social. 😍

Introducing another piece in the upcoming launch collection: the Gothic Key Necklace. This piece was originally a bit of a joke in my head, 'cause I love goth stuff, and I thought... hey... I should make a 'goth' necklace. And then it morphed into Gothic architecture. But I love how it came out.

During the confirmation process of Trump’s judicial nominees, Democratic lawmakers posed a question with a clear-cut answer: Did Joe Biden win the 2020 election? Their responses, however, forecast a huge threat to the impartiality of our justice system.

Sounds like a great turnout motivator.

Internal documents and former company executives revealed how Cigna doctors rejected patients’ claims without opening their files. “We literally click and submit,” one former company doctor said. (Published March 2023 w/ @capitolforum.bsky.social)

the thing that strikes me about this — again, besides it being false — is the venom and disrespect for the people who come here to work and build better lives. they aren’t “servants.”

This is super bad for US citizens, especially on the left of the spectrum. Gives this authoritarian administration potentially the power to surveil & go after US citizens on spurious "funding of FTO" grounds. This whole antifa boogeyman is being fully weaponized. So dangerous.

"Trump’s Unpublished National Security Strategy Is Stephen Miller’s Far-Right Wet Dream" The president’s new draft natsec document rants against migration and cultural “erasure” – and endorses far-right political parties abroad, sources tell Zeteo.

"There is so much about the draft papers that have caused some who’ve seen it to privately complain that it reads like openly fascist European rantings from the first half of the 20th century." Zeteo scoop on a "bonkers" national security strategy draft:

Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes. Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule. (Published Oct. 2024)

"The reason why this is of concern, is—he's the president of the United States, he's been found in another case by a civil jury to have been liable for sexually abusing a woman in a department store, he's a convicted felon, and he's had dozens of women accuse him of sexual abuse."

Oh wow!!

Not so sure the White House is going to be too happy with this ratio over at the other place

Epstein survivor Annie Farmer: "It was very unlikely that we would get the signatures we needed for this discharge petition. And here we are. ... For years people said it was unlikely that anyone would care or know about the crimes of Epstein and his co-conspirators." @kaitlancollins.bsky.social

The situation in the Situation Room being the presidential pedophilia coverup. And let’s not be silly — the Situation Room is not some kind of inviolable holy space.

Civil society has to hold together and pull forward until the Democratic Party changes. It makes no sense to wait for the Democrats as a party. What makes sense is shifting the ground underneath them.

Four years ago today, I started my Substack newsletter The Good in Us. What a long, strange trip it continues to be! Everything is at stake in the next three years. Let's stick together and fight the good fight. www.marytrump.org/p/four-years...

The CFPB was created. The Trump administration is seeking to eliminate it, despite the fact that Congress has passed no law enabling it to do so.
