I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Masked ICE gestapo agents just murdered an ICU nurse after assaulting him, stealing the firearm he was lawfully carrying, spraying him with chemicals, then restraining him so they could shoot him point-blank.

And the federal government's response is to shield the killers and justify the killing.
Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

CBP has murdered another person in Minneapolis, in broad daylight, on video. This was not an accident or an isolated incident. There is no finger-pointing or spin Trump and Republicans can put on this to convince anyone otherwise. This is murder — just like we saw with Renee Nicole Good.

ICE murdered a nurse today
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll empty a whole goddamn magazine into you while you’re lying on the ground if you don’t cheer them on while they’re fucking doing it.
