Speechless. Wow.
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.

- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

Another Friday, another 10 #PostcardsToVoters to encourage voters in Hillsborough County, Fla., to start or renew their Vote By Mail.
PostcardsToVoters.org is aiming to mail 2 million postcards to Florida Democrats by October. That won’t happen unless we start writing NOW. Won’t you help us?

Trump: "Whoo. I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker. That could've dome some damage but you know what? I wouldn't have shown the pain. I would've gone back. Boy did you hear that? That was nasty. But I would not have shown the pain. I would've acted like nothing happens as my finger fell off."
