Whether you're pro or anti Trump, no one can deny that American politics are in complete chaos since Donald Trump became President two weeks ago.
And apologies to my American friends for the upside down U.S. flag.
Toronto held its second anti-Trump protest in as many days outside of the U.S. Consulate General on University Avenue today. The rally was attended by thousands despite the frigid temperature. The anti-Trump protesters came from many walks of life: liberalists, left-wing and centrist people, Socialists, Communists, Black Lives Matter (BLM), labour unions, mainstream population and visible minorities, and groups from many religious groups.

Trump vs. the Constitution
“ For the June 18, 2018, cover of TIME on the political attacks launched by White House on Robert Mueller, the special counsel investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, we turned to Brooklyn-based artist Tim O’Brien. A long-time TIME collaborator, O’Brien has had work appear on over two dozen TIME covers since 1989, with subjects ranging from Pope Benedict XVI to Osama Bin Laden.”

▶ “This portrait of Trump gazing into a mirror and seeing a king gets to the heart of how he and his legal team have approached this past week and the past 500 days, actually. Besides the usual challenge of the short deadline and making the image work, whether or not to have him looking at himself or looking at us was the thing I pondered most. His eye contact with each reader, each American fits the situation best.”
— Tim O’Brien.

The Art and Agitprop of M. T. Liggett
The engaging - and frequently enraging - metalwork of M. T. Liggett is part art, part agitprop. Decades in the making, Liggett's extensive collection of metal whirligigs and totems lines his property outside Mullinville, Kansas. Hundreds of pieces reflect a singular view of life and politics, local, national and global, and depict (some would say skewer) the likes of tomato- and squash-bodied flower children, school board members and all manner of Mullenville's "elitist bourgeois." Front and center, however, are a jack booted Hillary Clinton, goofy Al Gore, President Rush, King George, a headless Laura Bush, and a call to "Elect Ted Kaczynski." There's hearts and love here, too, if you're looking.
For much more info, just google M. T. Liggett.
Take a circular container and pour in an assortment of nuts. Watch carefully. The nuts aren't doing anything. Watch some more. No change. Watch again. Same story.
How are the nuts different from Congress ?
The nuts can't kick the can down the road. Something at which Congress excels.
My first attempt at using the OM-1 High Res mode which produces an 80MP file. I'm happy with that. : )) : ))

I'm always looking to expand my portfolio and expertise in various ways of photography. I was contacted recently by a local political candidate for some media photos to use in various formats. I took a bevvy of photos and they're now being used online and on posters. I love a good challenge, and I see this particular guy going far politically.
A double dose of satire from Bristol artist ANGUS, who is known for his cheeky slant on things. Here in East London he has a pop at members of parliament (duck houses, second homes etc) and the "white Oscars" - the latter very topical with the Oscars ceremony coming up shortly...

While he was waiting for someone, this man was looking in the window of a cigar store. I couldn't help but think that it's a double whammy of things politically incorrect: a cigar store Indian and smoking.

After yesterday's graffitied picture of Free Derry Wall, in the Nationalist Bogside, in the wake of the news that former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher had died.
I today decided to visit the Loyalist Fountain Estate. I had hoped that The Bobby Jackson Memorial Wall would offer some sort of message that would highlight the emotion of the Protestant people of Derry/Londonderry and balance the demographic following The Iron Lady's death.
The wall, part of a memorial to Bobby Jackson, a local loyalist who had first painted an iconic mural of King Billy at The Battle Of The Boyne in the estate, regularly contained messages. One of the most recent was painted for Queen Elizabeth 11 's Jubilee. However today the wall remained a blank.
In contrast, the messages on Free Derry Wall had been added to. And on the grass beside the wall lay the remains of coloured carnival streamers and party poppers. The evidence of an impromptu party held by a group of Dissident Republicans on Monday evening.
