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

Glad to see more artists speaking out against ICE.
Screenshot of a post on X by Pop Crave (@PopCrave) saying: “Billie Eilish condemns ICE in new Instagram reposts:” followed by a large quoted statement calling ICE “a federally funded and supported terrorist group” under the Department of Homeland Security and saying it has done nothing to make streets safer. Below the text is a two-image layout: on the left, a photo of Billie Eilish wearing a black suit jacket and white shirt, looking to the side; on the right, two Instagram Story-style screenshots with text blocks on dark backgrounds.

I know it’s stupid to call things that are clearly awful in their own right distractions, but it is pretty stunning how batshit insane every thing has gotten in tandem with the realization that they are just going to ignore the law on releasing the Epstein files.

Thank you, Dave Matthews, for also speaking out.
Screenshot of a post on X by “Wu Tang is for the Children” (@WUTangKids) saying that Dave Matthews took time on his birthday to speak out about ICE and the killing of Renee Nicole Good, ending with “HBD Dave!” The post quotes Marco Foster (@MarcoFoster), who attributes a statement to Dave Matthews criticizing taxes funding “ICE masked thugs” and referencing Renee Nicole Good being shot multiple times. Below the text is a video thumbnail showing a close-up selfie of a man wearing a dark cap outdoors, with greenery visible along the left edge.

My statement on what's unfolding in Los Angeles.
A statement from Kamala D. Harris:

Los Angeles is my home. And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city. Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration’s cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.

This Administration’s actions are not about public safety —they’re about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process.

Protest is a powerful tool — essential in the fight for justice. And as the LAPD, Mayor, and Governor have noted, demonstrations in defense of our immigrant neighbors have been overwhelmingly peaceful.

I continue to support the millions of Americans who are standing up to protect our most fundamental rights and freedoms.

"DEI" is not a bad word. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamentally American – a reflection of who we actually are. After centuries of erasure, we've seen progress in representation in recent years, and I don’t want to go back.

There's something ironic about the fact that Gretchen Whitmer parlayed Trump's pandemic-era hostility to her into political credibility - and then burned that credibility by being too nice to Trump.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.
