I love this painting.
There's such a hidden story there.
Is the painter being annoying?
Is the painting meant to be put above the snack drawer her already chunky husband keeps raiding?
Or is she judging us through the mists of time?

The act of denying life-saving treatment to someone because of their lack of ability to pay for it is, in fact, murder. You are deliberately killing someone. Denying chemo coverage to a man with treatable cancer and letting it metastasize is an insurance company killing a person.

Yes, it’s illegal. Like changing it to Department of War, like ten thousand other things. Part of the Trump strategy is to break the law and convey “the rule of law is weak and feminine and laughable and should be overridden by Our Guy.” Trump is fundamentally anti-law.
