Sheyene Gerardi, Venezuela
Venezuela´s Sheyene Gerardi inherited the mining estate from her parents in the Orinoco belt region in Venezuela. The state became worth over $1 billion in 2017, after Venezuelan authorities claimed the area, dubbed “the Orinoco Mining Arc”, to possess reserves of uranium and some of the largest untapped gold and coltan reserves in the world. The company, through its subsidiary, is also developing automated mining technologies. Her businesses also include projects and activities with NASA.

Space X CEO and Tesla Motors product creator Elon Musk is no ordinary CEO. And it is not unusual for CEOs to engage in extreme sports or activities. Musk recently went “wing walking” on an airplane with his wife. What else does he like to do? Elon is an avid reader and here are some...

SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket launched the STP-2 mission at 2:30 am from LC-39A on the Kennedy Space Center. The two side boosters returned to land at LZ-1 & LZ-2 on the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, creating the two side-by-side landing streaks. Had to play hide and seek from the bright lights of the dredge in the shipping channel at Port Canaveral, but the lifeguard tower was up to the challenge.

From Wikipedia: "RTFM is...internet slang for the expression "read the fucking manual"—typically used to reply to a basic question where the answer is easily found in the documentation, user guide, owner's manual, man page, online help, internet forum, software documentation or FAQ."
Donald Trump and Elon Musk claim they are saving money by firing thousands of federal workers and independent federal watchdog groups, whose roles included protecting whistleblowers and federal employees. While no one disputes that there is some bloat in the federal government, the job of Inspectors General across various agencies was to ensure taxpayers' money was spent according to the law. However, Trump has dismissed these watchdogs and is removing other federal workers indiscriminately. More importantly, according to the law, the offices of Inspectors General are nonpartisan, and a president cannot fire them or federal workers without cause. A recent 60 Minutes exposé shed light on our current situation.
Reporter Scott Pelly: "President Trump is casting aside those who might stand in his way and among the first to go were at least 20 leaders of federal offices that were created by Congress to hold administrations accountable. You may not know it, but after Watergate, Congress set up a system to audit the executive branch and ensure the rights of federal workers. Those offices became known as watchdogs. Congress has guarded their independence from politics so that no president can use these powerful auditors to punish enemies or hide their own fiascos. But now, for the first time in 44 years, President Trump has fired these officials en masse. One of them is Hampton Dinger, who has a warning about what America is losing as it's firing the watchdogs."
Our country has a manual for its governance known as the Constitution. Trump, Musk, and their supporters are disregarding it and the laws enacted by Congress to ensure the fair treatment of workers and the appropriate use of funds for approved projects. Meanwhile, the current GOP-led Congress is failing to uphold these laws. RTFM Donald and Elon!

Money speaks. And the wealthiest man in the world, Elon Musk, is yelling. Once calling Donald Trump “a stone-cold loser,” The New York Times headline set the stage for Musk’s unprecedented support for the ex-president: “Frenzied Musk Is Going All In to Elect Trump.”
Musk bought and used Twitter to express his adoration for Trump to his 201 million followers and promote conspiracy theories. I was an early adopter of social media in the 2000s, hoping to meet some interesting people and have engaging conversations. Twitter, now X, started out that way. Sadly, it has now become a cesspool inhabited by extremists and bots under Musk. With no oversight, he uses this platform to promote his own agenda and reinstate like-minded conspiracy theorists, such as Marjorie Taylor Greene and Alex Jones, who were previously banned on Twitter for their misinformation posts. The Times stated, “On X [Musk has] warned in dire terms about the effects of progressive policies and censorship. He has claimed, without basis, that the Democrats are trying to fill the country with undocumented immigrants who would reward them with permanent power….” He has also claimed that money meant for FEMA to aid hurricane survivors has been diverted to allow more undocumented immigrants into the country. Both are false.
He formed America PAC with his billions to help finance Trump's campaign. That is his right after the Supreme Court ruled in its Citizens United decision "that the freedom of speech clause of the First Amendment prohibits the government from restricting independent expenditures for political campaigns by corporations, nonprofit organizations, labor unions, and other associations."
If the GOP is campaigning on Americans' fears, let’s not forget that money buys power and influence. This is one fear that Trump and Musk have conveniently overlooked.
Americans have lost confidence in their government. We no longer trust our legislators and the Supreme Court to solve our country’s problems: income inequality, affordable health care, a woman’s right to decide what’s best for her health, the economy, and climate change. Governance has become a series of battles. It’s no longer just political ideology. We are at war over cultural issues while our politicians ignore our basic needs. And we’ve lost faith in our country’s institutions when ersatz news organizations like Fox knew Donald Trump lost the election but promoted voter fraud to get ratings.
The morals of our GOP legislators and their sycophants are just as important as their economic policy. How can we trust a party that Alex Patton, a Florida-based Republican consultant and pollster, has characterized as a party that “has become mean and driven by emotion on whom we dislike.”? “But,” he says, “that is the driving force in American politics right now.” That is the driving force of the GOP, not the Democrats. This is not an example of the equality of “bothsidesism.”
In my essay, “ It’s Time to Release Our Own Kraken!" I outlined the history of the Republican Party’s “below the belt” tactics. They continue to be underhanded to this day. But with the low level of civility in our present polarized country, many Republican legislators now in office have hit new ethical lows.
As a visual artist who has spent over a decade creating posters about the sorry state of American political discourse, this year I began a new series of portraits, "Faces of the Republican Party." The men and women in this series deserve to be taken to task for their unwillingness to compromise, belief in conspiracy theories, and disdain for the LGBTQ+ community, women’s rights, and our children’s education. The purpose of our government is to solve our nation’s problems. It’s not a place for personal vendettas or manufactured cultural issues.
“Faces of the Republican Party” is not a partisan series of portraits. Merriam-Webster defines the word as “a firm adherent to a party, faction, cause, or person, especially one exhibiting blind, prejudiced, and unreasoning allegiance.” The people depicted in these images are the partisans. Instead, my series is a documentary and op-ed showcasing the facts in 2022. All of them had a hand in trying to overthrow the government. These images are MAGA Republicans who put their blind allegiance to Donald Trump and their careers ahead of the needs of the American people.
Republicans are perfect examples of Patton’s “driving force.” This force is dirty, mean, misogynistic, selfish, and wastes our tax dollars. These people are just a small sampling of individuals responsible for the loss of credibility and faith in America’s institutions. And worse, they couldn’t care less.

Hands Off! Protest in Vero Beach, Florida on April 5, 2025. A large crowd of over 2000 showed up to protest Trump and Elon Musk policies and the havoc caused by DOGE. This was one of 1200 locations where people raised their voices across the nation with more than 5 million participating. Resist!
