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.

I'm haunted by the Nazi images of Gregory Bovino and federal agents on the streets of Minneapolis, plus the news that a man ICE snatched from Minnesota has now died in a prison camp. It's all too similar to the country my grandparents fought against in World War II, not the America I know and love.

The claim from Trump's DOJ that filming immigration raids (which terrorize people and communities) could amount to domestic terrorism is a reminder of how important it is to support civil liberties groups. It takes repeated, persistent court battles to secure our constitutional rights.
Justice Department says filming immigration raids is 'domestic terrorism'
A leaked Justice Department memo directs federal prosecutors to press “domestic terrorism” charges against individuals who record immigration operations.

A key passage Goldsmith cites in the US DOD Law of War Manual:
"It is forbidden to declare that no quarter will be given. This means that it is prohibited to order that legitimate offers of surrender will be refused or that detainees, such as unprivileged belligerents, will be summarily executed."

The government may be shut down, but Trump is still managing to get some work done in Washington—like illegally demolishing an entire wing of the White House to build himself a ballroom.

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.
