The wheels of industry are turning here on the home front. (Well… Not so much ‘industry’ as ‘words & drawin’… but still). Stay tuned for more on this in the coming week(s)…

These men were building us homes.

The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants.
Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS.
Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

Hey “Patriots”….
It’s been days since an al-Qaeda rebel bribed a president with a hotel. Where’s the ‘America first’ jargon we’ve heard for the last eight years? What happened? Did your metals of honor fall off? Or did you trade them for a red baseball cap?

Recently found: The poster to the first art show I was part of. Kalamazoo underground comics … at WMU. The poster was by Jeff Wilson (whose comics were totally bonkers!) So I framed it. The other pics are what I had in the show.

Thank you to the wonderful people at PaLatte Coffee & Art (Grand Rapids) for everything they do. They help me as I bumble my way thru learning a second language, they are friends, and they continue to play host to my paintings.
“Thank you”

No warrant, unmarked vehicles, masks worn to conceal identities, un-uniformed jack booted thugs in jeans, no due process,… and yet the police assist them with ‘crowd control’ for their unlawful arrest. Is America great yet?

With Martin, Trump tried to force GOP senators to confirm an unqualified bumbler and extremist just because he is Trump’s “favorite US Attorney.” That didn’t work. That makes Martin’s derailed nomination a defeat for Trump too.
Ed Martin’s defeat Is a sign Donald Trump’s power Is waning
Republican Senators balked—this time—at the president's effort to force through an unqualified extremist.
