My work is multi-disciplinary. I situate myself as artist in the debate of what constitutes an intelligible life-one that is speakable, has meaning, is valued.

Happy Marriage Equality Day! 🏳️🌈
I love you, @HackettCongress. Thank you for the privilege of your goodness each and every day.
#LoveWins#LGBTQ
Today marks the 5yr anniversary of the Obergefell v. Hodges landmark opinion by SCOTUS making #MarriageEquality the law of the land. This past Sunday, on June 21, 2020, Rita and I celebrated our 10th anniversary of legal marriage in MA.
This is our story: https://t.co/3330VOPYvE
To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.
It's only Tuesday and Trump has fucked up a pool for $14 Million, lost a war agreeing to pay Iran $300 Billion, and ballooned his already expensive ballroom budget by another $200 Million.
Where are the Republicans screaming about "waste, fraud and abuse"?
Chicago, it’s good to be home!
Michelle and I built the Obama Presidential Center to be a place where people of all ages can learn, play, and work – and we can't wait to welcome you all later this week!
The attacks on Michelle Obama’s femininity aren’t jokes.
They’re a pattern of anti-Black misogyny that this country refuses to hold accountable.
She is the standard.
She has always been the standard.
🎥: @MichelleObama
Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one.
He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.
He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history.
We have nothing to hide.
Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere.
The country is watching.
Our @MBK_Alliance Ambassadors are examples of the outstanding young people we’ve been proud to support at the @ObamaFoundation over the years. We hope the Obama Presidential Center inspires even more.
Trump lies constantly and he is desperate for the Iran war to be over. So desperate that he’s giving Iran 20 times the money Obama did, and getting nothing in return, except an open strait that Iran will charge a “maintenance fee” to all ships. Well done, bozo
😱😱😱 And just like that, it completely VANISHED from the media.
But a sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Lets make this viral 👇
Remember, during today's literal cage match on the White House grounds:
No matter what, it's not his house. It's our house.
Get a hat, coaster, or sticker to support groups and candidates who will respect the form AND the function of the people's house. https://t.co/yGDgJciDQZ
Biden at 80. Trump at 80.
One rode bikes, worked out daily, passed historic legislation, released yearly physicals, and answered endless questions about his age and health.
The other falls asleep in public, rambles through speeches, looks visibly swollen, and has reportedly taken multiple cognitive tests ordered by doctors.
Guess which one the media treated like a five-alarm health crisis. 🙄
“The story of this era isn’t merely that powerful men demand obedience. History is full of powerful men demanding obedience. The story of this era is whether enough Americans still possess the courage to refuse. Scott Pelley did.”

A message to all sane Republicans:
He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals.
You said nothing.
He bulldozed the East Wing.
You said nothing.
He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing.
He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing.
He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing.
He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing.
He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing.
He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing.
His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing.
He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing.
His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing.
He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing.
He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing.
It’s time to start talking.
When 60 Minutes is in trouble, we are all in trouble. When Pelley says CBS is meddling in his reporting for political reasons, believe it. https://t.co/lWpjdv1Unm
So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
Richard Gere on Trump: “We’re living in the darkest moment that I’ve experienced on this planet. Whoever thought America could turn like this? Whoever thought that a maniac like this would be president and dismantle all the good things? America’s never been a perfect place, but it has a perfect ideal. First day this guy dismantled almost everything that was good about the US government and people”
Tom Steyer on Trump: “I started a business from scratch. He inherited $450M from his poppy. My wife and I have said we’re giving the money away while we’re alive. He keeps stealing money. He’s not a business person, he’s a thief. He is someone who has consistently been a crook”
