For all the fearmongering about capital flight from New York City, there’s an exodus few want to talk about: working people.

Sky-high rents and outrageous child care costs are already pushing families out of the city they keep running.
 
That’s what we have to change.

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.

Whenever you give people impunity and tell them any resistance is a crime, you're going to get imposters trying to take advantage of a "do crimes for free" loophole.

It happens online too. We often see people impersonate police in order to get unquestioned access to people's private online data.

Think about it like this. This ICE agent was on camera and unmasked — fulfilling one of three "demands" Democratic leader Chuck Schumer just issued in order to agree to save Republicans and give DHS even more money.

And he was still threatening to kill someone.

An extraordinary document. Read it.

“Attached to this order is an appendix that identifies 96 court orders that ICE has violated in 74 cases. … ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”

Andy McCarthy lays out why having DHS investigate Alex Pretti's murder is so problematic.

But there's another now: the goons that assaulted Pretti 11 days before CBP murdered him are HSI, the subpart of DHS purportedly investigating the murder.

As with Renee Good’s death, refusal to conduct a credible criminal investigation only makes the eventual prosecution of federal agents more likely.

One problem is that Democrats look at already passed funding as untouchable, while Republicans look at it as something to chip away at forever.
Case in point: the 2022 IRS surge funding in the Inflation Reduction Act.
TIL the House cut another $11 billion from that last week! And Dems voted for it!
ICE and CBP will still be funded through the BBB during a government shutdown but FEMA, TSA, the Coast Guard and others in DHS will not be funded and about 75% of the rest of the government will shut down.
