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.

Trump is building an army loyal to him alone, and paying them up to $250k/year. If you can’t see ICE for what it is yet, then you’re not going to until it’s too late.

The irony of ICE detaining and disappearing the original Americans should stop everyone cold.
As a Lakota proverb says, when you discover you’re riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. This system isn’t broken. It’s dead.

We’ve all heard and read about the family that was flash banged and tear gassed in their car but most of us haven’t seen the video footage from that night.
You can hear others yelling “There’s kids in that car”.

An ICE agent killed a migrant in a detention center by strangling him. The autopsy cites homicide. I’m not seeing it being reported near as much as it should be. GET THIS EVERYWHERE!

Next time you look at your greatly increased monthly bill for healthcare, remember that Republicans chose to use the money set aside for supplements to defray your costs to, instead, invade Venezuela to make ExxonMobil even richer.
Thank them with your votes.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Two ICE vans were parked next to me last night in downtown Johnson City, TN. My husband inquired what they were doing with all the comms antennas on their vans, and one smiled while they said “to listen for aliens”.. They aren’t being subtle, y’all! They’re monitoring us!

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.
I did it because the government isn’t.
This is what I found.
