Available at the Fruitlands Museum (Harvard, Massachusetts) in the gift shop are these handmade journals featuring photographs of my original tintypes which I made on the grounds at Fruitlands. The journals were made by my wife, Jeannine Stein, and they have beautiful papers and bindings.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.
Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Secretary of Homeland Security on racial profiling by ICE:
“That is not true… Don’t you dare ever say that again.”
Who the f*ck does Kristi Noem think she is, addressing a legitimate question like that? It is true. Tom Homan admitted it. Noem is a liar.

Laughing in front of cages designed to hold migrants and refugees, many of whom came to this country fleeing extreme violence and poverty, and hoping to raise their children in a more compassionate country. And many of whom followed all the legal procedures to enter the country.

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.
