One of my favorite painters.
Magnificent portrait of a woman, 1620, by Artemisia Gentileschi. She was born on this day in 1593.

True, but at this point, nothing he does will garner trust. Once lost, trust is difficult, if not impossible at times, to regain. Trump is evil.

Since January 6th, MAGA has been normalizing political violence. Now, after what happened in Minnesota, they’re normalizing political assassinations. We cannot let MAGA turn America into a nation of conspiracy theories and thug violence.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.
