WIP "Rabbits After Rain". 1st layer down. One of several in progress in a series inspired by flowers I saw all around Andalusia this last April.

There will be a twist ending in the lighting, before I am done!

He did encourage his mom to use her visibility for good, to bring awareness to how unfit RFK Jr was (and is) for participation in governing, much less any leadership role

China has been heavily investing in renewables for forever, and now they have energy on tap for AI and their citizens with falling emission levels.

The US is being left behind by clinging to fossil fuels.

Seems like his face is clear enough for his manager to recognize him. I wish I could believe there will be consequences.

Hard to imagine a warning of risk of prostate cancer being removed, if it was hormone therapy for men.

And whatever you learned, it didn't stick, because you betrayed all of them and every single one of your constituents.

"Serious bipartisan negotiations"? Really? You are either a complete moron or you think your constituents are morons. We see that you are a bought and sold corporate Dem, but worse, you have willingly caused irreparable harm. You are clearly unfit for office. Resign.

"This deal is our best path"? You didn't even make a deal. Any 6th grader has more saavy than to accept a pinky promise from established liars and bullies. THE SHUTDOWN WAS BECAUSE THEY WONT PASS THIS. My God. Just resign.

Sorry but nobody raised by such an abject failure as a leader is going to be competent to lead. Just no. Nobody associating with this clown should be anywhere near a position of leadership.

Your gross incompetence and abject failure to represent your constituents calls for resignation. RESIGN. You are worse than worthless, you have caused irreparable harm. Your legacy is simple stupidity.

He is beyond feckless. May his next primary be his last, and I hope the door hits him twice in the *ss on the way out.

He caved. And as one of his constituents, I will put my back into seeing him primaried. Between this and his refusal to support Mamdani's candidacy, Schumer is unfit for leadership much less representation.

Democratic leadership:
YOU MUST VOTE HARDER.

Democratic voters:
VOTE SUPER HARD IN MASSIVE NUMBERS AND FLIP SEATS AT MULTIPLE LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT ACROSS THE COUNTRY

Democratic leadership:
WE’RE CAVING. LULZ.

I swear to god Chuck Schumer better not ruin the bolt of energy that Tuesday shot through Democrats by folding on the shutdown

If only Chuck Schumer could be just 5% Mitch McConnell and not 100% Charlie Brown.

"Hyde language" would be a ban on anything related to abortion. So, any Senate Democrat that caves is agreeing to vote to implement a nationwide abortion ban in exchange for healthcare subsidies.

@chuckschumer.com we will put our backs into primarying you if you fumble this.

I don't usually make calls but I did this time. Following up their abandonment of Mamdani with abandonment of millions of constituents is going to guarantee people show up to primary @chuckschumer.com and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

If they agree to this, they are truly idiots OR paid off. Every single Democrat voting for that deal needs to be primaried. They betray their constituents and are also simply incompetent.

Please do not give in on the shutdown. Not only for the people who will suffer because of it, but because there will be zero faith in the DNC for fumbling this.

He also thinks as long as he doesn't use that word "tax" he can issue demands for "compulsory contribution to state revenue, levied by the government on workers' income and business profits, or added to the cost of some goods, services, and transactions" (the definition of tax).

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them β€œviolent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

πŸ“Œ Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

We need a Congress that has not fully abdicated. I understand Dems are reporting to work and mad as hell but that's not good enough. How about a daily roundup of impeachable offenses and/or acts of treason?
