#ArtAdventCalender Day...?? Before the Storm Watercolor on paper

#ArtAdventCalender Not sure what day it is anymore. This is the first painting I did in 2017 using quality paints/paper. 26 Meeting Street, Charleston, SC

#ArtAdventCalender Thanks to all 5 people who "like" my work. This is from the Governor's palace in Williamsburg. It is the Scullery.

#ArtAdventCalender I've missed a few days, but here is a painting from earlier this year. Cedar Wax Wing - trying to loosen up my work.

This is really troubling. So much damage has been done to this country just within 11 months of 47's presidency. How can we ever undo this?!?

🩸🩸🩸 NEVER FORGET: Instead of honoring our Constitution's key principle of a Peaceful Transfer of Power, POS Donald Trump Abused his Power on Jan 6th by inciting this violent & deadly attack on our country's Capital and should be in prison for life 🩸🩸🩸

#ArtAdventCalender After the last painting, I wanted to work on a series. This is #2

This is one of my favorite pieces. It is currently in a small gallery show. Watercolor and gouache on paper. #artadventcalender

I heard that now they're placing people who criticize ICE under surveillance. I want it to be known to the entire world that I despise ICE to the core and I think their entire institution should be abolished. They are cruel, inhumane, and are examples of the worst of humanity Fuck ICE Fuck Fascism.

It’s an abomination of our tax dollars. Nobody wants this.

Rep. Grijalva says she was pepper-sprayed by ICE

PRO TIP: If you're going to lash out at reporters for questioning your stamina, don't fall asleep mid-rant.

This absurd pardon shows the murderous boat bombings were never about stopping drugs

Real photo.

There was no "Emergency" situation with crime in DC. This stunt got a 20 year old young woman killed. It. Got. A. Woman. Killed.

Ahem

To the six Democratic lawmakers who made that beautiful video reminding our military members of their duty and obligation to NOT obey illegal orders, I say this: Make MORE of them.

Great news. This is what an ICE agent looks like in a mugshot. Meet Gerardo Rodriguez, 45, of Temecula, courtesy of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. Arrested for "illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week." 🧵

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Jeff Bezos paid $50 million for a wedding. He just got a $16 billion tax break. He just laid off 60,000 people. And you're furious about a kid getting a free school lunch?

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

This is very disturbing!! 🤬

Project 2025 is finally on full display and God has zero to do with it.💀☠️👺💩

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor. Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors. These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism. This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function. Every American should reject it.

Truth

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics. It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history. It corrupts our political system every day.

If the National Guard is really in D.C. to protect federal property, they should probably have been at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. two days ago

If you’re driving around in unmarked cars, wearing masks, and kidnapping people, you’re not one of the good guys.

🚨🚨🚨

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Mike Johnson has given the house a very very very very very very very very very long vacation because he’s worried about the Epstein files

🎯🎯

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare. And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

I like how they are carrying American flags, but not attacking police with them.

Dallas didn’t disappoint. #NoKings

A Chicago-style No Kings Day. #NoKings

Hell yes, Pittsburgh. Love Yinz. No Kings.

Los Angeles came out in droves. #NoKings

No Kings, Portland, Oregon

An astonishingly large crowd! Chicago

Boston, bigger than the Tea Party.

1. Washington DC #NoKings 👑
