DOGE didn’t add up. After promising 2 trillion in savings Musk returned to life as an internet troll leaving taxpayers a huge deficit hole.
DOGE has quietly been absorbed by the Office of Personnel Management. Another America First fiasco that leaves the oligarchs richer and us poorer. #art

Charlotte was the latest to deal with masked thugs refusing to show warrants abducting prople
Every time hard working, law abiding community members posing no threat are arrested, assaulted, or detained, We the People are hardened in our resolve for a return to the rule of law and due process. #art

Our Art of the Deal president’s 28 point blueprint for peace is nothing more than the Ukrainian surrender.

As usual Ukraine isn’t part of any negotiation, nor our allies, nor any input from Congress.
Zelenskyy is being very cautious but intimating a split from Washington. #art

Weeks ago Trump was screeching about the violent rhetoric that led to the Charlie Kirk shooting.
Yesterday he’s called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed.
A video went viral from CT. Senator Chris Murphy, calling on anyone and everyone with a voice to “pick a fucking side” #art

🚨🚨This is no "peace" plan, it is a recipe for further suffering and #Russian imperialist expansion in the #west. It is difficult to appreciate just how much damage the #trump administration has done to #Ukraine and its war efforts. It is disgusting beyond words. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...
Ukraine banned from Nato, Russia readmitted to the G8 and territory ceded: what’s in Trump’s draft plan
Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he expects to discuss the plan – which was reportedly drafted by Russian and US officials – with Trump

And just like that, the Epstein Files became another democratic hoax just like the president whining about Russia Russia Russia.
Bondi immediately opened investigation into democrats which triggers the stall mechanism because files relating to ongoing investigations can’t be released. #art

Trump tells reporter not to embarrass Prince MBS with questions about killing reporter Jamal Khashoggi. Trump described K as extremely controversial and a lot of people didn’t like that gentleman Americans have chosen to tune out. A dream scenario for the rise of the authoritarian oligarchy. #art

This print is a section of the Lazarus poem “The New Colossus” that adorns the base of the Statue of Liberty. The text is a powerful symbol of America’s promise of refuge and opportunity for immigrants. This piece is purposely cut in two in protest of the draconian deportation of immigrants. #art

Hey!!! Look over there! The president says it’s another hoax. Epstein is like that Russia Russia hoax.
Like the rigged election. “Patriotic tourists” of J6 were persecuted by democrats.
GOP continues in lockstep, ignoring everything from self dealing corruption to pedophilia from Trump. #art

This is my latest woodcut in a series focused on individuals, as individual acts of defiance are proving to be more durable protections to democracy.
“Mary Frank: Stop the Coup” is a portrait of the artist/activist in her studio as she holds one of her hand painted protest signs.

Mary Frank: Stop the Coup. Color woodcut. Portrait of artist/activist Mary Frank in her NYC studio with one of her hand painted protest signs. As institutions and elected leaders fail to meet the moment is ever more necessary for We the People to stand together. #art

Authoritarians need to exert their control over the arts.
Authoritarians gain power by turning people against each other and the arts can create communities. Where the arts thrive, creative vibrant communities develop. The printing of my woodcut edition portraying artist/ activist Mary Frank #art

The normal guardrails of democracy: an independent judiciary, the press and a Congress acting as a co-equal branch of government have failed. We are left with the continuing threat of coup via the implementation of Project 2025.
This is a portrait of artist/activist Mary Frank in her NY studio #art

It’s obvious that the Arts are a threat to the authoritarian playbook.
This piece shows artist and activist, Mary Frank in her studio holding one of her hand painted protest signs.

Why give out SNAP benefits? Why provide affordable health care? Why not build a gilded ballroom for billionaires instead.
The president and Republican Congress would rather inflict crippling cruelty on the poor and middle class rather than negotiate.

The carving is complete and we are ready to print. This is my portrait of artist and activist Mary Frank.

These are the four carved blocks that I’ll be printing from this coming week and with a bit of luck I’ll have an edition that resembles the mockup. #art

While we the people beg for SNAP benefits to feed our children, beg for affordable health care, beg to shelter the homeless, the rich build ballrooms.

We deserve better and it is possible in a country where a single company (Tesla) can contemplate a trillion dollar!! payout to Elon Musk. #art

Congrats to Dems across the country as elections are showing a rising tide of frustration at GOP overreach
People are fed up with trade wars, higher prices, fed up with military in our cities. People are fed up with “Great Gatsby” parties and ballroom construction while SNAP benefits run out. #art

Get out and vote today. While it’s not a presidential year or even midterms there are plenty of local elections. Every voice counts and every election counts.

Trump announced we will resume nuclear weapons testing.
It’s hard to square a Nobel Peace Prize with a nuclear arms race. Plus positioning a D Day armada off the coast of Venezuela. Or surging our military into Democratic controlled cities. #art

Capture the judiciary, blackmail the oligarchs that control the media, strip the military of leadership, reduce Congress to a rubber stamp as a series of “emergencies” must be met with increased state violence. The FBI investigates any opposition and the Department of Justice convicts them.

Be prepared for ICE season. My socials are filled with ICE lobbing tear gas at folks who don’t want them in their cities.
Masked, without identification or uniforms, detaining citizens, profiling using illegal warrantless detentions to satisfy Stephan Miller’s quotas. #art
