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. Stay free

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop. It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities. I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk. Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared. Well, here’s a link: georgetown.box.com/v/Vladeck-IC...

Your fear means you see what’s happening. Your exhaustion means you care. And caring right now is an act of resistance. Please remember that Trump's plan is to flood the zone with chaos, cruelty, and nonstop outrage until your nervous system gives up. We won't walk away.

We cannot trust strongly worded Schumer to whip the votes needed to stop this ICE budget. If you haven't done so, please call your Senators now and demand they VOTE NO next week on the ICE budget! It's going to take all of us.

You need to be on the phone with your reps daily. If you need help knowing what to say when you call, follow @jesscraven101.bsky.social. What Tr*mp did to our ally Ukraine is deeply unpopular with Republicans, and they need to be flooded with calls from their constituents outraged over this betrayal
2/28 Call all 3 reps about that INSANE Oval Office meeting 202-224-3121
Hi, I'm a constituent calling from [zip]. My name is Trump and Vance's Oval Office meeting with President Zelensky today was a major embarrassment, and totally horrifying. The way Trump and Vance spoke to Zelensky was disrespectful, condescending and antagonistic. It was clear they were using Russian government talking points. We look like imbeciles on the world stage, and, more importantly, like a country that is fully in league with Vladimir Putin. Trump's fealty to Putin and Russ dangerous and unacceptable. I stand with Ukraine want the Senator/Congressmember to make a staten, saying that s/he does as well. We are either for freedom and democracy or we are not. Which side is s/he on?
Thanks.

Why Does No One Understand the Real Reason Trump Won?
It wasn’t the economy. It wasn’t inflation, or anything else. It was how people perceive those things, which points to one overpowering answer.

They know the “catastrophic cut and run from Afghanistan” was Trump’s plan, right? Remember Trump’s dance with the Taliban which lead him to invite them to Camp David—on 9/11? That was part of the plan. Should have been a warning for Biden. 🤦🏽‍♂️

We are on the verge of the largest wealth transfer in history and that, combined with the rise in investment in private prisons, should be a cause for concern for everyone. Stop supporting billionaires who care more about profiting from putting people in cages than about whether they live or die.
