Awww! I love this one too. #WHC Chicago, I believe.
Was looking for some photos for Patreon tonight, and came across this one -- probably my fave of @raingraves.bsky.social and me of all the ones that have been taken over the years.

The Pedo-Protector Prez ordered a brand new distraction & the Dept. of War (actually the Dept. of Defense: a mini-distraction within a distraction, no extra charge!) is delivering by expanding our ongoing unlawful policy of randomly bombing the tiny boats of fishermen with no due process whatsoever.

From the #AnneRice Celebration of Life last night at the Orpheum Theater in New Orleans. This was after, with Christopher Rice and Eric Shaw Quinn, who co-produced the amazing remembrance. It was absolutely beautiful.

The government shutdown stops USDA from administering farm subsidies, raising the specter of growing farm foreclosures. It also delays a bailout President Trump had promised for farmers impacted by tariffs.

Pay attention. Even if you dislike Bernie. Everyone I know is affected by their #Healthcare premiums increasing beyond affordability. First they starve you. Then they take away access to Healthcare. This is how you break an enemy. Cutting off food, medicine. Americans are the enemy of #Trumpwreck.
In the middle of all Trump’s distractions, pay attention to the fundamental issue:
While the richest people are getting richer, tens of millions of people are struggling to pay for rent & groceries.
Now 15 million Americans are going to be thrown off health care. Unacceptable.

The statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands mid-frolic wasn't the first anti-Trump artwork on the National Mall in recent months. But it was the first to be removed, despite having a permit.

Here are a few pictures of a Tariff notice I got from UPS on items for my small business. Ask yourself... Is the math mathing? Before you ask, it was itemized with the contents of the package, so it looks legit. The notice arrived 2 days *after* the due date. #UPS #Tariffs #Trumpwreck #JPMorgan

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable.
This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed.
