Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

I agree. No more of what happened with Bernie. Conversely, "the peepul" need to stop gravitating towards the far-right when want an alternative. Thats what bothers me- like in a lot of western countries, there are left alternatives but people still want the fucking Nazis.

Oh yeah totally. Kinda feel like we're just discovering it after overlooking it photo-wise for so long. Right under our noses.

An anti-DOGE protest in DC yesterday.
It's becoming increasingly harder to feel that we're not sliding into authoritarianism. Who knew that a democracy could be such a pushover? That the guards rails that were supposed to stop things like this were made of naught but sodden paper?

Now is The Time of Monsters... Shooting inauguration weekend in DC...

" That's the dark magic of MAGA for a photographer- it's such a spectacle and circus and the very things that make it so repellant, toxic and even evil are what make it so compelling. It’s a grim muse."

Why are the Democrats so spineless? | Moira Donegan No wonder the American public thinks of Democrats as out of touch, opportunistic and cowardly. That is because they are

"They have already tried compromise; they have already tried capitulation. It is time to try defiance"

Seriously. Does a democracy just fall that quickly and easily? Only if it is ALLOWED to.

I've said since the election that we need to let America burn itself down a bit before people start waking up. It's only week 2 and we have a fucking inferno.

As much as I am not a fan of the beliefs behind these signs, I love coming across these sorts of things. Hell I seek them out. Often times the bits of Americana that repel me the most as a person, attract me the most as a photographer.

Inauguration Weekend Pt. 1- Peoples Rally, DC

One last rage against the coming of the dark ages. It was a decent enough sized crowd, but (I felt) far too small for the gravity of the moment. Too many have of us have capitulated or assimilated.

Gareth and I have our first book coming out. It's a huge moment for us. It's the cumulation of over a decade of obsession, travelling, walking, shooting and hard work.

Pre-orders start now until March 31. Shipping in May/June. Excited!

I finally (after a lot of writers block and distractions) got another blog post done, and moved to substack, because I dunno, seems like where most of the other photographers go.
