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.

I need to write to NIH Director Bhattacharya and apologize...

Through the awesome new "agency priorities", NIH has eliminated residential segregation, disadvantage, poverty, and racism...

Checks notes: Oh, I'm sorry. Those are just terms eliminated to get grants funded this fiscal year.

One thing I have learned in my time in politics is that if one of the parties is shameless, the other party cannot afford to be spineless.

That’s why he’s occupying our cities and talking about launching military strikes on frigging Minnesota.
