Trump’s voters have become like the members of the administration, delighting in the crassness and obscenity that pours out of the president and his circle whenever they are challenged. But policies suffer and the public is poorly served.

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)
As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

I love Rick's writing, and am grateful that this one is free. (My monthly journalism subscriptions are running about $50, which is a ceiling for me.) I'm sharing to read later, as it's a little too early for heartbreak.

Even if you aren't the sort to subscribe to someone's block list, this provides excellent fodder for individual accounts to block. I opened up one and found the first several posts to be nothing but lies and smears - easy block.
