Bruce wrote this song last Saturday. The day our government executed a VA nurse trying to help a lady to her feet. Bruce is America's conscience. 🇺🇸 “We’ll take our stand for this land and the stranger in our midst.” m.youtube.com/watch?v=wWKS...

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

On D-Day, 81 years ago, bravery fell like rain on the parched soil of Europe. General Dwight D. Eisenhower is shown with Company E, 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment, at the 101st Airborne Division camp, Greenham Common, England, on June 5, 1944 - one day before the landing. Heroes all.
