I had the privilege to see Stevie Nicks in concert recently. When introducing this song she said “I wrote this song for you. It’s a gift for you. Use it.” And I pretty much haven’t stopped crying since. youtu.be/lJDCYh5iWQs?...

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez was detained in the Leon County Jail on charges of unlawfully entering FL as an “unauthorized alien.” In fact, he is a U.S. citizen born in the US. Despite presenting his birth cert in court, a judge ordered that he remain in custody. He has been released but this is fascism!
