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.

There are likely fewer than 200 adult #Florida panthers left in the wild.
To protect them from a massive new development in their occupied breeding habitat, conservation groups just notified Fish & Wildlife Service and others of their intent to file suit in federal court.

Trump and his family have pocketed more than $1.8 billion in cash and gifts since his reelection. He said he would usher in a "New Golden Age" for America, but one year into his second term, he's only ushered in a new golden age for his own wallet.
