Philip Glass has withdrawn his symphony based on Abraham Lincoln from the Kennedy Center.
"Symphony No. 15 is a portrait of Abraham Lincoln, and the values of the Kennedy Center today are in direct conflict with the message of the Symphony."

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.

The pages unfold gently, where ink and words whisper their secrets. The creases in the marginalia, the scattered notes along the margins all are private musings between thoughts and paper. This moment is a quiet respite, wrapped in the soft embrace of words

Even if Nomm resigns or is impeached, she must face criminal prosecution for directing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to carry out large-scale violations of constitutional rights, violations that led to dozens of foreseeable deaths.
Kristi Noem must resign.
And if she won’t, she must be held accountable and impeached by Congress.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Experienced federal immigration agents in Minneapolis are privately raging about the killing of nurse Alex Pretti and want out of the mission they now see as “lost.”
ICE and Border Patrol agents are said to have turned on the operation—and on their colleagues who killed Pretti.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Stop funding and abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)—this agency is beyond redemption!

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
