An older watercolour drawing from when I used to make frequent trips to sketch in London. This shows the Embankment with lots of pigeons, a pavement artist and a couple of Japanese young women on one of the benches. This was sold at an exhibition. #art #pleinair #London #Thames #watercolour

#GVerse #KingResist #Unite #FBaRmy An ICE Agent was BUSTED by Bloomington Police in "Operation Creep" trying to solicit sex from a minor. When arrested, he said "I'm ICE, boys." That #FuckICE Agent is toast.

As President Trump's call for National Guard deployments rings out across the U.S., a small contingent of Ohio guard members is quietly expressing concern in an encrypted group chat.

“Our oaths did not expire simply because we took off the uniform.” Former Navy pilot Ken Harbaugh shares a powerful Veterans Day message about service, sacrifice, and what real patriotism means — inspired by Marine Master Sgt. Mike “Top” Washington.

This Veterans Day, I’m thinking of the millions of Americans who have served in uniform — and how our government is failing them right now. Words aren’t enough, we need actions. Fund the VA. Fund mental healthcare. And end endless wars.

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength. Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans. The American people need more from their leaders.

"Speaker Johnson, it looks as though the president is currently stabbing you with a knife. Do you have any comment?" "Well, look, this is the first I'm hearing about it. As you know, I've been really busy not doing my job, so I just don't know enough about this alleged stabbing to make a comment."

"I am worried about how quickly basic democratic rules and norms have been weakened." Former President Barack Obama discusses democratic backsliding and defines the stakes ahead of the 2025 election.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."
