General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

I swear, if everyone doesn’t reply to this with, “Watched you parade around stage with a chainsaw to understand why we can’t perform our jobs effectively due to wannabe management,” I’m going to be big mad. Also - I posted this twice because it’s still illegal and still dumb.

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Trump’s executive order shutting down DEI claims that recruiting diverse applicants “diminishes the importance of individual merit, aptitude, hard work, and determination.” Donald Trump’s war on DEI isn’t about merit.

Ilhan Omar introduced an amendment to make corporations pay their fair share. Instead, the GOP voted it down and have moved along the budget bill that would strip $880 BILLION from Medicaid. Fun fact - that's the ENTIRE budget. #HandsOffMyMedicaid

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

How rich that Senator Bill Cassidy voted for RFK, a vaccine denying quack. Guessing he will silently watch as Americans become severely ill, even die. He owns what RFK does. His legacy will be that he was too weak to stand for what is right in order to save his own ass from Trump’s wrath.

This photo from Lake Superior feels empty to me. Which is honestly how I’ve been feeling as of late. Things are abysmal here in the US and I fear they will only get worse for some time. Hug the people you love and support those you can. It’s going to be a bumpy ride. #PhotographersUnited #nature
