This morning, the Justice Department went after nearly an entire state's federal bench, all at once. The judges had said the government wasn't following court orders. The response was to try to remove the judges. Here's why every American should be paying attention. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Italy Shows How Amazon Can Be Forced to Bargain: Shut Down Its Distribution
Amazon is huge and powerful, but Italian workers have shown it can be forced to negotiate. Could US workers do the same?

Vincent van Gogh "Wheatfield with Cypresses" (September 1889) Oil on canvas | 72.1 × 90.9 cm. (28.4 × 35.8 in). National Gallery, London. #ArtSky #VanGogh
"Wheat Field with Cypresses" (1889) by the Dutch Post-Impressionist master Vincent van Gogh. 
The artwork is celebrated for its thick, rhythmic brushstrokes (impasto) that bring the swirling clouds, golden wheat field, and windswept trees to life with vibrant movement. 
Van Gogh painted this landscape during his stay at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole mental asylum in Saint-Rémy, France. Inspired by the scenery just outside his window, he considered the towering, dark green cypress trees to be a signature element of the southern French landscape.

the people of Dublin did not exactly roll out the red carpet for Donny. nor did Ireland's President Connolly. Dear Leader found out the hard way he's not very popular abroad. boo fucking hoo. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I bring the receipts. link is here: bit.ly/4j1Wg00
respect.

you’re always hearing that word — respect — seeping from Dear Leader’s rancid anus-mouth.

Donny never shuts up about respect. ‘nobody respected Sleepy Joe Biden. no one respected Obama. nobody respected America. I’m going to change that. I’ll make America respected again, because everybody respects me.’

yeah, well — here’s a pro tip for Mister I’m So Fucking Respected: live your life in such a way that the entire world doesn’t piss itself laughing at a giant inflatable version of you getting nailed from behind.

“For my subject matter I don’t start off and pick a subject as such; that’s not my way of addressing a drawing. My way of doing it is to start without a preconceived plan of exactly what I am going to execute in full, and so I come up with a small part of it which is pleasing to me and I use that as a starting point to wander into, through the drawing. I try to make things that satisfy my eye, that satisfy my sense of form and colour.”

Take a minute to stare at this sunset painted by Vincent Van Gogh, it'll be good for you. Notice the single paintstrokes, and the ocher-golden light coming from the sun setting, and imagine being there for an instant. Vincent Van Gogh, Sunset at Montmajour – 1888
A van gogh painting depicting a sunset light coming from te right, with individual paintstrokes being ocra-dark yellow and golden over some leafy tall trees and bushes. The sky has a light mint shade with pastel paintstrokes all over, following the wind current.

Educator Nancie Atwell won the inaugural $1MM Global Teacher Prize in 2015--and donated every cent back to her school. She founded Maine’s Center for Teaching & Learning in 1990, a non-profit K-8 lab school, where kids choose their own books & read an average of 40 books a year. 😮 🧵 #Education
A beautiful photograph of American educator Nancie Atwell, born 1952, the inaugural winner of the 2015 Global Teacher Prize. She is positioned slightly off-center against a bright, softly blurred natural background under a clear sky. Captured from a low angle looking upward, she smiles warmly with an expression of joy and fulfillment, looking off to the left of the frame. Her wavy, shoulder-length grey hair caught gently by the wind frames her face, and she wears a simple pearl earring. Her attire consists of a crisp white jacket layered with a silk, ocean-blue scarf draped loosely around her neck, featuring a subtle, dark marble pattern. The natural lighting highlights the texture of her clothing and hair, creating an uplifting and triumphant mood. The composition emphasizes her pioneering contributions to education, notably her founding of the Center for Teaching and Learning, encapsulating a lifetime of dedication to student-centered literacy.
