David, I think he added some hair on the topside to your mugshot. You appear so much younger.

Yes, you two got it, right down to the red tie. A little orange on your face would have helped but made you less handsome. Please wear to breakfast.

Send out an all points bulletin and a BOLO (not the tie!) to local LEOs, there is a resolute, seemingly well dressed fanatic on the lose in Tucson! Or the Metro area. Or Arizona somewhere. Trying to Make America Think Again…so what’s a MATA with youse guys?

Whenever I have seen you in person your eyes are so friendly, sympathic, kind and just plain happy to be here. You have the look of an honest, principled man. Most of your pictures are the same. But this mug shot had no such life. You nailed it.

What a great story about your friendship. Photography lasts forever and reminds me of the day, time and emotions felt.

Steve is truly a genius when it comes to the visual arts, but true evil emanates from inside, and you just don't meet that criteria!

I love your newsletter! So much so I became a paid subscriber yesterday, in hopes you never leave the political scene again. (Well, if you die it’s ok - but that’s the only reason - none of this “I need more time with my family” stuff. They’re probably glad you’re busy elsewhere. 😳)

Nice "Kubrick Stare" attempt there, David, but I detect the mischief in your eyes as opposed to the unbalanced bully egomania. You just can't repress when those Irish Eyes Are Laughing inside...

Love the story. May you and Steve continue to have Light Finding adventures for decades to come.

Nope, you just don't cut it as someone trying to look like someone trying to look like a mobster with bad hair. On another topic...maybe a rethink of your self titled substack...Arizona's Progressive Voice could indicate that you think you are the only Arizona progressive voice which would indicate more than a touch of megalomania. Although being a standout cartoonist for many years, hmmmm. Maybe a lil reader contest to rename your substack?

MATA...good one. Make America Think Again. Would like to see Meckler’s photos exhibited at the Center for Creative Photography. The photo of you with ink in your mouth is funny and my favorite. I always smile when I see it.

Nice try, David but there's no way you could ever radiate evil the way tRump does! It's just not possible to hide your humor and positivity behind a "glare."

It is perfect! Have a great day, Fitz.

Amazing. He got every detail completely right! The only way to handle Trump is to make fun of him.

Who is this handsome devil? "He looks Good and He looks Hard."
