Our democracy has been gravely wounded

The Trump immunity decision says: a president CAN VIOLATE THE CRIMINAL LAW if he acts within his broadly defined “constitutional authority”

Absurd and dangerous

There is no basis in the Constitution for this Court constructed…

How bad was today's Supreme Court decision?

If reelected Trump could assassinate his political opponents as long as he cited a statute or constitutional provision for doing so.

We are in real danger.

Ableist comments against the President starkly contrast with the Democratic Party's values of inclusivity and equality.

Calling for the President to step down after filing deadlines and as the Democratic nominee is dangerous because it undermines the democratic process and stability. Such a move risks chaos within the party, jeopardizing the election's integrity and giving an advantage to…

Allan Lichtman on Biden's Strong Chances of Winning 2024

I love, love, love this clip of historian Allan Lichtman as he offers us a much-needed lesson in history and politics.

Let’s hope certain pundits and operatives internalize his message and realize that giving up on Biden and his incumbency is so foolish.pic.twitter.com/iNabsPelTy

I’m a soldier in the army of love #tommorello #soliderinthearmyoflove

Santa Monica Airport Artwalk 2024 Was A Huge Success!

 

Wow! Over 1400 folks visited our studios during the latest 2024 edition of the Santa Monica Airport Artwalk. Thanks to all the folks who visited my studio and engaged with me, my family, and my art. Producer and creator Austin Ross and his partner the amazing (The Harder They Fall) Annabel Durst brought scintillating energy into my studio. My recent painted homage to Basquiat found a moment with Austin while @sergioarau looked on from the background with a copy of @la_weather_novel by @mariaescandon in his hands. Good vibes, good folks, good hope! Thank you @18thstreetarts , @cityofsantamonica, @stgactor
