Idk how many republicans or conservatives will watch any of this, but I hope to see the sound bites everywhere tomorrow.
Senator Booker is currently talking about the gap in healthcare between the rich and the poor. Media always ignores democrats doing anything. Spread the clips today and tomorrow.
Cory Booker has taken the Senate floor and plans to filibuster as long as he’s physically able to protest the complete disregard for the rule of law by Trump and Musk.

Building up small inventory for festival season can get monotonous so I decided I’m going to use the color cube to help keep things fresh & try to stretch myself a little bit. Started this set of six smalls today after having one of my studio mates grandkids pull a card. Still in progress 🎨 #art

Played around with a critter doodle today. Made a smaller but similar style drawing to one of my popular larger pieces. Might do another today or tomorrow. I miss doing goofy stuff like this. 🎨

Donald Trump is treating the destruction of a democracy as a political show — throwing Ukraine to the wolves and doing a favor for Putin.

It's shameful and dangerous.

I've been to Ukraine, as have many Senate Republicans. I hope they speak up. Millions of lives are at stake.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

While the bird flu gets worse and egg prices skyrocket, Trump’s team fired employees who were working on the bird flu response.

Now, they’re frantically trying to reverse course.

This is the opposite of efficiency.

This breaks my heart … Roberta Flack was a major part of the soundtrack of my youth. “First Take” was one of the very first LPs I bought with my own money as a young teen. Rest in peace and power, dear Queen.
