Actually, it's exactly the duty of an artist. To take a stand through their art.
"Any artist cancelling their show at the Trump Kennedy Center over political differences isn't courageous or principled—they are selfish, intolerant, and have failed to meet the basic duty of a public artist: to perform for all people"- Kennedy Center spokesperson Roma Daravi
Kennedy Center vows to sue musician who canceled performance over Trump name change
The Kennedy Center is planning legal action after jazz musician Chuck Redd canceled an annual holiday concert. Redd pulled out after President Trump's name appeared on the building.

How does one even play 333 games of golf in 4 years? I think that means you're on the course twice a week for four hours, or one entire working day per week. Do we not give the President enough stuff to do?
Donald Trump, who disparaged Obama’s golf-playing and who said he’d be too busy to play himself, has surpassed Obama’s eight-year total in less than five years and is on pace to play twice as often — once every five days on average. www.howtoreadthisch.art/president-ho...

The most corrupt presidency in American history.
GOP operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman, convicted election fraudsters, were paid $960,000 in the second quarter to secure a pardon for a former nursing-home operator who defrauded the government of $38 million. Trump pardoned the man, Joseph Schwartz, last month.
Inside the New Fast Track to a Presidential Pardon
Even some of the president’s closest advisers have been surprised by a number of the recent series of pardons.

It's almost as if the Enlightenment figures who founded the US had learned the lessons of Europe's wars of religion and created a secular state that would both protect worshippers from political interference, AND protect the polity from becoming dominated by religious sectarians.

“National security concerns” isn’t a magical incantation. There have to be real, plausible national security concerns.
A swarm of drones becoming undetectable by flying through an offshore wind farm is not plausible. Laughably so.
Even if radar had trouble there, how’d they get to the wind farm?

Burgum claims "national security concerns" created by wind turbines are detailed in a "classified report" & pertain to "radar interference," adding that "if you wanted to attack a population center on the east coast our country, you would send a swarm of drones right through one of these wind farms"

Just want to add: Being convicted of a crime in the U.S. wouldn’t justify sending someone to a foreign gulag to be tortured, and arguably violates separation of powers since the “sentence” they are legally bound to serve is one issued by a judge, not Stephen Miller (i.e. the factoid is irrelevant)
Bari Weiss lied in her memo. She said segment didn't report administration's legal justification (it does in the very first sentence) and didn't say how many detainees had been charged with crimes as opposed to just those who were convicted (it does). www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

Trump: "With respect to the insurance companies, I want to meet. There's essentially 14 of them, 10 big. I want to meet with them and say, 'I want you to cut your rates. Way down. Way way down.' And maybe, if they do that, we'll be able to not cut them out. We'll be able to continue to deal w/them."
