August 4, 2026 is the day this 1950 Ray Bradbury story is set. No humans, just the residue of their technological achievements, an automated life and nuclear destruction

Recent small paintings reminding me to breathe Flower. Become Air. Touch Grass.

Lock them up

The existence of a trillionaire is a policy failure.

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court. That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits. Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.

Blood moon eclipse today. Last week i did not know why i painted the moon red. Now i understand

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians. We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

Is Sam Altman sending out a SOS to the world?

And we have only one AI company with any bit of ethics or morals and no congress willing to regulate or do any oversight

I'm at the Olympics and the entire stadium booed JD Vance. 😌

This is an immensely significant document that continues to get virtually no attention in US media—but lots abroad. In Jul 2015, Epstein arranged a meeting between a known highest-level Russian intel operative, Sergey Belyakov and Peter Thiel,

a government run by extremely online child kidnappers and cringe memers

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

AOC on ICE: It’s our task to figure out how to claw back what has essentially supercharged this agency into becoming a relentless domestic paramilitary that is also a blank check to Palantir to create facial-recognition scans on U.S. citizens.

Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.

I don’t know which conservative Democrats need to hear this history lesson, but the German elected officials who voted to fund the Gestapo were considered Nazi collaborators. History is watching.

Brassworks Gallery Portland is opening its annual postcard show this weekend. Here are my oil paintings for the show. All works are 4 x 6 inches and selling for $100 brassworksgallery.com/collections/...

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

NEW: Republicans are quietly working to install voting conspiracy theorists to local election boards in two of Georgia’s largest, bluest counties, laying the foundation to subvert the state’s 2026 midterm election. From: @jenrice.bsky.social

"the state can just summarily imprison someone without filing charges or holding a trial" doesn't just overturn democracy it overturns 1000 years of common law, like throwing out the entire legal system entirely and saying all people in America are the state's property.

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

Signal's end-to-end encryption is useless if one end (someone's phone) has been hacked. It is, however, good for hiding stuff from public records laws. This is a huge scandal.

Spring wake up call 🌱

USA—beacon of democracy—where you at???

He's running for Mayor of NYC as well. Please share his website and donation link if for no other reason than to make sure Cuomo stays the hell out of office. www.zohranfornyc.com

i think shutting the government down is preferably to nullifying article i of the constitution

New leadership immediately

I don’t understand why the president is allowed to spout nonsense about colonizing another country and the 25th amendment isn’t being invoked in addition to all the other horrors this is insane. It’s absolutely insane. It isn’t funny or even weird.

It’s amazing to find out at this late date how much the rule of law depended on people simply deciding, on a voluntary, daily basis, not to break the law.

This is a grave and sobering admission: they are not pursuing the “WELL ACTUALLY he broke the law during protests,” they are bragging that they are deporting people for protected speech.

Under this theory, Marco Rubio can expel Canadians who say “you should stop threatening to annex Canada.”

Schumer needs to be replaced. Stop waiting for him to step down, force him out

This should scare everyone. The Trump admin revoked Mahmoud’s legal status, kidnapped him, and is now holding him in an ICE detention facility without any due process. Trump is an authoritarian, testing the limits to see how much he can get away with. He won’t stop here.

After crashing the economy, incompetent UK PM Liz Truss was forced from office by her own party. She served only 49 days, famously outlasted by a lettuce. Trump has betrayed allies, cozied up to enemies & is crashing the economy. His party is servile & silent. Today marks his 49th day in office.
