I've always loved huge paintings and great miniatures. Both transport me into a different frame of mind. Baltimore artist Jill Orlov's work does that. Can't help on close inspection but reflect on materials, themes, puzzle of how it all came into being. baltimoremagazine.com/sectio…

“Trump sees the armed services as yet another entity to be misused for his personal benefit, damaged and then discarded just as he has with his bankrupt businesses, the evangelical Christian churches and the Republican party.”
"The photo of a grinning Trump giving a jaunty thumbs-up over these patriots’ graves is an indelible image of narcissism risen to the point of sociopathy," writes former Trump administration official. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

NEW VANCE AUDIO: In an interview from 2020, JD Vance agrees with a podcast host who says having grandmothers help raise children is “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female.”
He also agrees when the host says grandparents helping raise children is a "weird, unadvertised feature of marrying an Indian woman."

J.D. Vance is not only one of the greatest frauds in American politics, he is the most obvious fraud in American politics.

One thing lost in "childless cat lady" brouhaha is the more substantive claim Vance said he was making.
Vance said his point was that Dems are "anti-family & anti-child."

“I care deeply that the American people have an entire picture of what is at stake in this election. And where we are right now, after that debate, is not giving us that picture,” says historian @HC_Richardson.
“It is my expectation, following the Supreme Court’s recent decisions, that that balance may be restored. But if it isn’t restored from the higher reaches of our government and from the media, the American people sure better do it themselves.
“Because we have five months to make sure that we get to the 250th anniversary of the American republic. And if we don’t come out right in November, we’re not going to make it.”
