Bruce always meets the moment 💔
brucespringsteen.net Bruce Springsteen @brucespringsteen.net · 9h
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.

Universal in all languages, actually!
Screenshot of an X.com post by Count Mysterioso (@MysteriosoX) saying, “Oh man, Dutch is such a difficult and enigmatic language, if only we could know what this means.” Below is an image of JD Vance in a suit, with overlaid Dutch text: “Buitenland” and “Wie is J.D. Vance, de First bitch achter president Trump?” (contains a derogatory phrase).

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti

Absolutely heartbreaking
Photos of Alex Pretti with Sara’s caption: On August 16th at approximately 10:00 pm I received a call from the ICU at the VA saying my Dad had sepsis and needed to be intubated to stay alive so Josh and I headed in. We were greeted by the kindest, most calming and warm soul who helped us understand what was happening and showed deep care for us and my Dad. He continued to show utmost patience and kindness over the next few days as my Dad remained in the ICU and we were there continually. It was Alex Pretti, the man shot today by ICE. If you see this video and don't think it's murder, I don't understand your thinking and ask you to question your heart. He was out there trying to help and protect and from the little we knew of him, it doesn't surprise me he was not afraid to be on the front lines of this horrible scene in our Minneapolis. Weeping for his family and all those at the VA who no longer get to work with him or receive his care.

1. Hundreds of corps that pledged to stop donating to members of Congress who voted to overturn the election on 1/6/21 have broken their promise over the last 5 years

But we've identified 10 promise keepers:

Farmers
Airbnb
Expedia
Nike
Clorox
Eversource Energy
Holland & Hart
Qurate
Whirlpool
Lyft
Five years later, these 10 corporations still aren’t funding election deniers
Five years ago today, on January 6, 2021, a violent mob stormed the Capitol building.

Kelly just received a multiyear deal with SiriusXM. Her on-air comments defending Epstein's child trafficking make it clear: she should NOT have a platform with millions of listeners. Sign the petition now to demand that SIriusXM cancel Megyn Kelly’s show NOW! sign.moveon.org/petitions/re...

Pete Hegseth must be investigated, removed and criminally charged.

After World War II, 3 German U-boat crewmen were sentenced to death for machine-gunning Allied sailors who were clinging to life rafts after their boat was sunk.
It's long been known in the military that this is a war crime. Pete Hegseth must be fired and prosecuted.
Headline: U-boat men to die for murder of Allied crews

It’s the busiest shopping period of the year, so we’re hitting pause on buying from corporations that enable Trump’s fascist agenda: weaintbuyingit.com/?utm_source=bluesky
(next to a crossed out Home Depot logo) “Home Depot has allowed its parking lots to become ground zero for ICE raids on immigrant day laborers, and its billionaire co-founder Bernie Marcus has funneled millions into Trump's campaigns.” (next to a crossed out Target logo) “Target, which once branded itself as the friendly, inclusive big-box store, has now scrapped its DEl goals and scaled back LGBTQ+ offerings to avoid angering the regime.” (next to a crossed out Amazon logo) “Amazon didn't just shower Trump's inauguration with cash -- Jeff Bezos' company pitched facial-recognition tools to ICE and powers the Palantir systems ICE uses to track and deport immigrants, making Amazon a core contractor for the regime's deportation machine.”

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

I've launched an investigation into the contracting and approval process for the demolition of the White House—and whether the corporate donors funding Trump's ballroom are seeking favors with the Administration.

Trump demolishes the East Wing — and White House norms
The East Wing's rapid razing bypassed a detailed process for major federal renovation projects in Washington. Now, Senate Democrats are demanding answers.
