Old but proud Canuck. Artist who still makes art. Retired pro makeup artist (Canadian Opera; CBC etc), retired costume and wig designer, and retired classically trained chef... Yeah- done a lot and seen a lot and it's STILL fun to get up in the morning.

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

Quite the opposite... The photos of his fake ear and his followers with pads taped to their head; the crusts of makeup in his face; the ridiculous posturing at international summits... These should always be kept to teach how NOT to be president.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..
