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.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.
The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

They couldn’t let us bask in the joy of victory for even 1 week.
All they gave us was 5 days. Couldn’t even get us to a week of being hopeful. All that goodwill and joy and happiness that maybe the Democratic Party really can do something right, all of it tossed in the trash pile. Sigh…

Trump‘s brilliant plan of 50 year mortgages means that after your first 20 years making huge interest payments to a bank you will have paid down almost none of the principal and they will still own the house you are living in with 30 years to go. A scam from a career con man.

Since Trump’s 2024 win...Democratic leadership...as a collective unit....has been playing Tiddlywinks. Never unified. Never fierce. Never using every tool with spit-flying intensity. Not. One. Fucking. Time.
You may "feel" like they have been...but...the facts do not support that feeling.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

The only option for Dems now to is to quickly change the narrative again away from shutdown and back to Epstein. With congress coming back Adelita Grijalva will be sworn in and the discharge petition for a floor vote on releasing the Epstein files must go forward.

Maybe I’m late to this realization, but it just hit me…
What are the odds that Speaker Johnson calls the House back for a CR vote with the Epstein files still hanging over his head?
Those 8 Dems might have hung themselves out to dry and risked being primaried for nothing.

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.
So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

All of the legacy media outlets that told us last year that Trump and the GOP really loved voting by mail and criticized me for saying it wasn't true were wrong. Now Trump is trying to ban VBM and he also wants to take over vote counting and certification. I hope they listen to me this time.
