WASHINGTON, DC: A provocative painting featuring Vice President Kamala Harris has ignited a firestorm of controversy after being prominently displayed at the Moms for Liberty 'Joyful Warriors' summit in Washington, DC.

The artwork, which depicts Harris in a grotesque and apocalyptic scene, drew both admiration from summit attendees and widespread condemnation from online critics, as reported by The Daily Beast.

The painting, created by MAGA artist Scott LoBaido, portrays a laughing Kamala Harris tearing into the bloody entrails of a dead bald eagle, the United States's national bird.

The image is filled with disturbing details: Harris is shown with blood covering her hands and mouth, a communist symbol emblazoned on her jacket, and President Joe Biden, depicted as a figure wearing a dunce cap with a knife in his back, sitting on a stool in the background.

To add to the apocalyptic tone, a nuclear mushroom cloud looms ominously on the horizon.

The artwork was prominently displayed at the Moms for Liberty summit, an annual gathering aimed at defending parental rights and improving education in America.



 

This year’s summit, held in the basement of a Washington, DC hotel, attracted around 600 attendees over its four days of programming, according to The Atlantic. Attendees reportedly "stood in awe" of the painting, while the internet reacted with widespread outrage.

LoBaido, known for his provocative and often politically charged artwork, hyped up the unveiling of his latest piece on social media earlier in the week.

In one video, he dramatically claimed that the painting, titled 'We Did It Joe', would become an iconic work of art, rivaling even Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa.

"They might not forget about the Mona Lisa, but she’s going to be in the back seat," LoBaido boldly declared.

The artist’s decision to unveil the painting in front of the US Capitol added to the spectacle. Pulling a blue cloth off the artwork, LoBaido claimed it would "change the course of history."

The painting was later displayed at the Moms for Liberty summit, where it became a focal point of discussion.
