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.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

It's now been four weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

We will either end fossil fuel dependency and the predatory extractivist basis of global production, or they will end us through wars and ecological collapse - all at the same time.

Kyiv was hit with 500 drones and 40 missiles. Civilians died.
Trump’s response? Understanding Putin’s inconvenience.
This isn’t diplomacy. It’s a bromance—paid for in Ukrainian lives.

The Missiles Fall. The Bromance Endures.
As Russian drones and missiles tore into Kyiv, Donald Trump found time not for outrage—but for understanding Vladimir Putin.

“Out of touch” isn’t it.
A president who gilds the Oval Office in gold, slaps his own name on a cultural institution, tears down the East Wing for his own vanity project, and then tells us the affordability crisis is all in our heads.
It’s not out of touch; it’s contempt for the people he governs.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Censorship is major step on the path toward an authoritarian regime. Cancelling an important 60 Minutes piece on the very real brutality being experienced by imprisoned people has lit a 4 alarm fire.

We now have a bipartisan majority of members of Congress demanding a vote to extend ACA tax credits and keep health care affordable for all Americans.
Speaker Johnson, bring this legislation to the House Floor immediately or step out of the way.
