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

Donald Trump is lying. I was at the ICE facility two days ago and saw a few peaceful protesters, not a “siege.”

Former president Barack Obama says he supports California Democrats’ moves to redraw congressional districts to offset similar efforts from Texas Republicans. “We cannot unilaterally allow one of the two major parties to rig the game,” said Obama.

Niemöller was asked by his concentration camp cellmate why he had ever supported Hitler and the Nazis. Reportedly, this is what he had to say for himself:
Screenshot from Niemöller's Wikipedia entry, which reads:

"I find myself wondering about that too. I wonder about it as much as I regret it. Still, it is true that Hitler betrayed me. I had an audience with him, as a representative of the Protestant Church, shortly before he became Chancellor, in 1932. Hitler promised me on his word of honor, to protect the Church, and not to issue any anti-Church laws. He also agreed not to allow pogroms against the Jews, assuring me as follows: "There will be restrictions against the Jews, but there will be no ghettos, no pogroms, in Germany."

I really believed, given the widespread anti-Semitism in Germany, at that time – that Jews should avoid aspiring to Government positions or seats in the Reichstag. There were many Jews, especially among the Zionists, who took a similar stand. Hitler's assurance satisfied me at the time. On the other hand, I hated the growing atheistic movement, which was fostered and promoted by the Social Democrats and the Communists. Their hostility toward the Church made me pin my hopes on Hitler for a while."

In Scranton on Wednesday, Matt Wolfson, a 45-year-old former construction worker, looked around at poverty in the Rust Belt city and thought the nation needed a change in leadership.
Wolfson said he didn't love the dictatorial aspect of Trump's personality, but thought it could help keep the country out of wars and maybe bring peace to
some other conflicts, including in Ukraine.
"He's good and bad. People say he's a dictator. I believe that. I consider him like Hitler," Wolfson said. "But I voted for the man."

I would also add, as a negative catalyst, some kind of political crisis involving Trump trying to fire Powell or restrict the Fed's indepedence. This would worry markets, not so much because they love Powell, but because of renewed uncertainty.
