The military was an infection vector in the Spanish flu pandemic that killed 50 million people.

There is not enough torment in one lifetime to make up for this.

Wow.

Born in Norwalk, CA in 1926 to Japanese immigrant parents, Asawa was the 4th of 7 children and grew up on a truck farm. In 1942, her family was sent to different Japanese internment camps as a result of U.S. isolation policies during World War II. At the Rohwer War Relocation Center, Asawa learned to draw from animators who previously worked at Walt Disney Studios interned there. In 1943, she was able to leave the camp to attend Milwaukee State Teachers College on scholarship. Hoping to become a teacher, Asawa was ultimately unable to, as her Japanese ancestry prevented her from obtaining a teaching position in Wisconsin. In 1945, Ruth and her older sister traveled outside of the U.S. to study in Mexico. She was taken by the colors and arts there. It was during her second trip to Mexico in 1947 that she learned the knitted-wire loop technique from a Mexican teacher, which she used to make the sculptures for which she is most famous. Eventually in 1946, Asawa joined the avant-garde artistic community at Black Mountain College, where she studied under German-American Bauhaus painter and color theorist Josef Albers, as well as the American architect and designer Buckminster Fuller. At Black Mountain College, Asawa began making looped-wire sculptures inspired by the basket crocheting technique she learned on a 1947 trip to Mexico. In 1955, she held her first exhibition in New York. By the early 1960s, Asawa had achieved commercial and critical success and became an advocate for public art, saying, "art for everyone." Asawa was the driving force behind the creation of the San Francisco School of the Arts, which was renamed the Ruth Asawa San Francisco School of the Arts in 2010. She passed away in 2013 at the age of 87, leaving behind a legacy that transforms pain into beauty.

Ruth Asawa :
American modernist known for her abstract looped-wire sculptures inspired by natural and organic forms. In addition to her 3-dimensional work, she created figurative and abstract drawings and prints influenced by nature, mostly flowers and plants.

"Executive" meaning I am having tantrums.

Isn't RFK Jr trying to kill all mRNA vaccines and research?

HOW EMBARASSING! Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction during a Pentagon sermon. 🤣🤣

They know the correct number and if you have any kind of error according to them, not intentional, even if you have an accountant, they wait a year and fine you.

Now do yourself as a doctor in robes healing the sick with a side of attacking the Pope.

This guy actually knows better and knows he is lying. And doesn't care.

And he's supposed to be one of the smarter ones. They are all just pure rubbish and should never be allowed anywhere near a position in any government ever.

Does this Medicare fraud grifter know he is part of the government that pays his salary?

And his wife.

Let them eat cake vibes.

These people are nuts.

Is he talking about the US?

Or the smarts.

That's because they are weak fools.

America's money goes to Hungary. To Argentina. To fund wars in Iran and invasions of Venezuela.

It goes to kill shipwrecked survivors. To ICE, who shoot US citizens and build concentration camps

Our money seems to fund death and destruction all across the globe

But it never goes to help Americans

Galloway ? He understands business, marketing, and the corporate world and loves talking about his wealth/success and how to build it . Some of his other positions are far from progressive - anti-union, pro-crypto, pro-palestinian protests un-American. Meh.

The "intolerant socialists" have only been portrayed that way, endlessly, by right wing propaganda. Common sense moderates who understand incremental change have been made out to be like raving lunatics when the reverse is true.

Should have voted for the woman. That's the party that works across the aisle FOR citizens to have better lives.

The best seat cushion is in first class.

It "IS" patriotic to want to get rid of him.

That should be 'they" . Typo but you get it. It's what keeps them going.

The feed on the hate.

He gave them an off ramp - thankfully many are taking it.
