Feminist artist who loves jazz and traveling. I voted for the black prosecutor, not the orange felon. Bernie Sanders & AOC & Cory Booker are heroes. We can agree on progressive policies. How do we make them happen? #artist #resist #fucktrump

So I got a little distracted. Back to art!!

Choose 100 paintings that have stayed with you or influenced you. One painting per day for 100 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just paintings. Day 25 of 100.

Sure, Jan…that is why your team photo looks like a mayonnaise convention and the policy memos read like Mad Libs.

Fun trick: Every time Trump says ‘Antifa,’ swap in ‘MAGA’—suddenly, what he's saying becomes true.

Data centers are receiving billions in state tax exemptions.

These centers, many owned by Big Tech giants, are driving up electric bills and sucking up huge amounts of water.

AI is boosting the stock portfolios of the richest Americans while everyone else pays the price.

He can have all the roundtables on antifa he wants.

Truth is, he’s lost the narrative. Majority of Americans don’t believe it anymore. They see it for the desperation it is.

Keep pouring it on!

Today it has two.

See how this works?

We at The Steady State have studied the indicators of authoritarianism for decades — usually dry words in intelligence reports. But sometimes, a single photograph says it all.

Reverend David Black, other faith leaders, journalists, and protestors have joined a class action lawsuit alleging ICE violated their First Amendment rights during protests outside a detention center.
