Donald Trump Jr poses in front of a dark beige background. He is wearing a dark suit & tie with a US flag pin. His eyes appear to be glassy and narrow, seemingly stoned out of his mind or high as a kite (as he often appears in public). Text above his image says, โDonny Jr made $450 million this year. He attended only 2 board meetingsโ Below is a news release inset into a white rectangle from citybiz saying: โBlinkRx Appoints Donald Trump Jr. to Board of Directorsโ

Photo of ICE agents shooting Rev. David Black at close range with pepper balls. (photo by Ashlee Rezin of the Chicago Sun Times) Text below the photo says, โReverend David Black, pastor of the Chicago Presbyterian Church invited ICE agents to pray with him. Instead, they laughed and shot him repeatedly at close range with pepper balls. They shot him in the head and he collapsed to the ground, but they continued to laugh & shoot him.
