With a personally created special medal for all the top agents he deems worthy, our artistic Director of the FBI is making a big time appeal to the preteen boys inside all of us. #plagiarized #punisher #art #fbi

It appears that their appeals process is broken as well. Sad.

It's absurd that Bluesky should slap an "Adult Content" warning in this image. This marble statue is accessible to children in a national art gallery. There is nothing "sexual" about it. The 3 mythological daughters of Zeus, represent mirth (Euphrosyne), elegance (Aglaea), and youth/beauty (Thalia).

Um, where’s the big A-1 headline story that says “Republicans take a perilous risk” by doubling down on destroying Obamacare, relied on by millions? The GOP has the White House, Senate & House, but can’t keep government open.

With shutdown, Democrats take a perilous risk at a precarious party moment

The shutdown is a gamble for a Democratic Party facing its lowest approval numbers since the Reagan era.

I’ve been through government shutdowns. This one is radically different.

Here’s what is at stake, and why Democrats must hold the line. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/this-shutdown-is-different

The Republicans are running out of time. The American people are finally waking up.

The Republicans wrote the big beautiful bill so that the price hikes from the tariffs would hit after the election. If you think they’re stealing from you now, just wait till November.

It’s not hard to understand. Republicans control all three branches of government. They are once again trying to kill Affordable Care Act by raising the prices. Democrats want Trump & GOP to stop punishing Americans by raising prices for tax cuts for billionaires www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I decided to start a drawing project, and have been marking up/sizing 26 sheets of paper to start soon. I suspect the project will take at least a year and plan to do monthly minute long wip videos as all of the pieces progress together.

I have no idea why the headline in US newspapers today isn’t: President Declares War On American People. He’s clearly sick. Why don’t more journalists say that?
