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.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) is planning to fly to Minneapolis tomorrow. Ro Khanna flew in today.

We've been telling Dems to do this last week. You have to be in Minnesota. You have to be with the people. You have to stand next to Walz and Frey.

Coordinated effort, leadership, and pushback.

I'm voting no on DHS funding.

Masked agents are operating in our streets and hurting people with zero accountability. It’s un-American.

If you’re upset and want to help, call your senators and representatives and tell them this chaos needs to stop.

I’m a doofus but I actually am a federally certified law enforcement training officer, as well as for the state of Georgia. Worked lots of crimes. I’m a doofus but I know that what the federal agencies are doing in our name is immoral, unethical, & illegal. So I speak out now.

Walz: "I don't care if you are conservative are flying a Donald Trump flag, a libertarian 'Don't Treat on Me,' a Democratic Socialist -- this an inflection point. If we cannot all agree that the smearing of a citizen and besmirching everything they stood for -- someone has to be accountable."

Citizen videos again showing our government is lying. This is not a dangerous person intent on ambushing police. I know guns are dangerous, Jesus Christ I know that. But guns in holsters aren’t. And you can’t push for universal carry & then claim that carrying a gun warrants this

Kristi Noem and the trump administration are a fountain of lies. Listening to Noem spew lies is like listening to Baghdad Bob in 2003. Disgusting

Trump’s plan all along has been to get his followers to accept killing of Americans.

It starts with demonizing immigrants, killing alleged drug dealers, and ends with killing Americans, then lying about it.

Justice is coming for trump and his gestapo.

This is a goddamn nightmare.
ICE detain yet another minor child—chase him down his own street and tackle him to pavement.

"I am legal! I am legal!" he cries over and over in Spanish.

Agent pins the boy down in snow—he desperately tries to keep his exposed hands from freezing at -25°F wind chill temperature.

Orin is probably the preeminent fourth amendment scholar in the United States. He is also extremely professional. This is the way he says "I wish a bitch would try"
This DHS memorandum says that the DHS General Counsel's office has adopted a new position that the Fourth Amendment allows entry into the home to make an arrest just based on an administrative warrant.

I would like to see that argument.

ICE are thug scum.
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

Coming back to this photo because it is Art.

Anyone that’s worn a uniform and done a Cool Job knows it is VERY ANNOYING to have media and observers follow you around on shift.

At least in part because they will absolutely film you doing something wrong or embarrassing.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

Agents like this should be identified and their name and picture posted on a searchable web site with videos and content like this linked to their names
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Renee Good should still be here.

She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth.

She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.
