Art is not made to decorate rooms. It is an offensive weapon in the defense against the enemy. Pablo Picasso, 1943-03-24
I saw the ‘Diversity’ poster by Michael D’Antuono in a tweet from Malcolm
Nance.
Michael D’Antuono’s art is reminiscent of Norman Rockwell.
But these are different times:
Like Rockwell, D’Antuono uses his art to make a powerful case for American Democracy and the Rule of Law.
I post these images because I agree with them. I do not know the artist and do not profit from sales of his work.

Sometimes images are more powerful than words. I don’t think most Trump supporters care about it either way though. Hang in there, my friend. Keep speaking up for humanity.

I think the GOP is demonically possessed and the White House needs an exorcist. I imagine a contingent of priests in the Oval Office shouting, “The power of Christ compels you! For reals, dude!”

Lol. The GOP doesn’t know who Christ is.

Do the worshipers of Moloch have exorcists? I guess that would be absurd. 🙂

Rob, thanks so much for featuring Michael D’Antuono’s artwork. I know I’ve seen some of it, but didn’t know who it was. This is a wonderful collection.
Now that #45, the squatter in the Oval Office, has renewed his DISTRACTION tweets and rallies, we need to be reminded of the overall problem. All these racist speeches and tweets are mainly meant to distract us from his prosecutable crimes.
These images are a great reminder. Hugs.

I think more insidiously, to distract us from the fact that Barr is shutting down the investigations into trump’s theft of the 2016 election.

I’ve spent almost 10 years in psychotherapy to get sane in a nation in which a quarter of the people are crazy enough to look for pedophiles the basement of a pizza parlor that doesn’t have a basement because a Russian propagandist on FaceBook said Hillary Clinton was using the basement to traffic children. The fact that one of these nut jobs is President is what makes the story so outlandish. Add a professional class with no skills or dealing with an abusive, gaslighting know-nothing as President and we have the makings of a dark comedy.

Yes. We live in an ugly time made uglier by the fact that we know better. Perhaps I expect to much from people. I’m horrified and exhausted by last night’s racist spectacle in North Carolina. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. I appreciate it.
