Died (alas!) on this day in 1592, in Bassano del Grappa near Venice, Jacopo Bassano. Here at age 80, still painting away, as portrayed by of his four artist-sons. Dynasty!

🔥 Top Campaigns, Last 24 Hours:

1️⃣ “Do Not Fund DHS or ICE Until They Are Dismantled and Rebuilt” (+14,769)
2️⃣ “Oversight: Why Is a Sitting President Suing Agencies He Leads for $10 Billion?” (+7,345)
3️⃣ “Protect Our State’s Elections From Federal Voter Intimidation” (+4,728)

Light ‘em up.
