Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

I saw the video. Watched it over and over again. Then I saw the picture, the blood…and the last thing my eyes focused on was the small stuffed toy.

They are stripping us of our rights and killing us in cold blood. A lot of us have been enraged. Those of you who aren’t need to wake the fuck up.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Fuck ICE and fuck our administration. What happened in Minnesota is horrible and should have never happened. That clown who fired into the car, it shows he had ZERO training with a weapon. And he killed a woman. He needs to be held responsible.

This whole thing is BULL SHIT.

My friend tells me she can’t wait until I’m at a point where I can do a podcast with her and just say all the things I wanna say that are extra spicy and would probably get us canceled. 😂

I’ve always championed free speech but all my life I’ve been taught to practice safe speech.

Huge difference

I realize now that I’ve taken for granted the feeling of relative safety I had for most of my life in the country I call home the USA. It saddens me that even though things were never perfect, there was a time when it felt like no matter how often we stumbled, we still managed to make progress.

I strongly dislike hypocrites, gaslighters and liars. If that’s how you do business or conduct your relationships please don’t bother me, don’t try and connect with me, I want authenticity and will no longer let people disrespect me or my time.

If this triggered you…it was meant to.

Peace.

I miss the days where my whole life revolved around finding inspiration from other artist.

When I was in college I felt inspired by everything and everyone. My timeline was filled with artist I aspired to be like. The people I followed? 98 percent of them were artist from different backgrounds
