Undocumented immigrants contribute nearly $100 billion in taxes every year.
Meanwhile, the wealthiest 1% dodge $163 billion in taxes annually.
The real drain on America isn’t coming from the border — it’s coming from the boardroom.

![You’ve talked about passing the baton in the loop of life. How do you want Hideo Kojima to be remembered when you pass it on?
I am not going to pass the baton to anyone. I will rather crush the baton… [Laughs.] I don’t need to give “Hideo Kojima” to anyone. If I pass the baton to my staff and tell them to make things the same way I do, the company will not succeed and will go out of business.
What do you mean by that?
Every day, if I tweet something that I like, a director or an actor or a musician contacts me. They say, “I’m a creator because of your games.” But they didn’t receive the baton of Hideo Kojima. They received my small fire. They’re not copying me. They’re not trying to be me. They have this fire, and they light up their own. And they’ll probably give that to someone else. There were legendary comic book artists when I was a boy. I didn’t become a comic book artist – I was inspired by them, I was influenced.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qxkeykszpqoob6dotcmifvur/bafkreihrf3nwfnjknhjmlcfuugqqodtxsfrs4ql47ezppmzn33np43azka@jpeg)

I'm fortunate I got to board a fun stylized music-driven sequence under Alex Kirwan's direction, after we worked well together on the Witch Hazel cartoon for the shorts years ago. My drawings are so scribbly, I think I roughed it out in barely 2-3 days if I recall, no cleanup. But man, what a blast.

There were a lot of influences I looked at and felt inspired by before diving into the sequence. Bubsy Berkeley scenes, Oskar Fischinger, Boris Artzybasheff, sequences from Fantasia/Make Mine Music/Melody Time, Dumbo, Cinderella, Modern Times... lot of homages and little references here and there.

I wish I had more time to make my boards polished & pretty, but I guess there was enough information there to work off of, including Stephen DeStefano on designs, Joshua Moshier's incredible score & the amazing animators up at TonicDNA. They took my thumbnails and made a stunning sequence out of it!

Clearest proof yet that the Trump admin uses "DEI" to mean "nonwhite people doing something impressive and getting credit."
Navajo Code Talkers made a big difference in WWII. The Axis had more trouble translating their language than cracking codes. And it's not like the Navajo owed the US anything.
