“Light Melts Ice”, 24x24. Acrylic on canvas. Trying to express reactions to our current state of affairs. I want to be hopeful yet very aware of where we are. These are crude and I will probably continue on this after it dries. But it felt good to let anger and outrage flow.

"The ending of "The Hangman" from 1964 based on the poem by Maurice Ogden. Film made by Les Goldman and Paul Julian."

Taken from @gorillaprutt.bsky.social 's Instagram, this surreal piece is painfully relevant. If you don't speak up for others there will be no one left to speak for you.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

Watch the video as a recklessly driven cheap car careens around and a gang of armed thugs spring out to menace an innocent civilian, like a kidnapping or robbery or murder-for-hire.

It looks like organized crime taking place in a third-world country, because it is.

As Oliver Hardy would say, "Another fine mess".... as Trump is trying to not just void the 17th Amendment, but seeks to bypass ratifying the change by the voters approving this by vote in each state. Otherwise he's not got time to pass it in Congress to be voted on by each state before November
