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

The rest of the world’s allies sure have a lot to say about tyranny and authoritarianism when it’s smaller, weaker countries doing the killing. But when it’s the American president - crickets. Would be nice if all you democracy lovers could grow a pair now. #trump #tyranny #ice #democracy

On the killing of Renee Nicole Good by ICE, DHS says “Attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them - an act of domestic terrorism.” Remember when Ashli Babbit actually did try to kill police and she’s a MAGA hero? Weird. #ice #reneegood #dhs #maga

@marcelias.bsky.social Not really familiar with the process or the likelihood of success, but seems to me that there are grounds to pursue disbarment for a number of Trump appointees for unethical and/or illegal behavior, yes? At minimum, Bondi and Rubio.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand. For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power. Let’s change that. One election at a time.

When in history, after the Civil Rights era, have we experienced such massive sustained public protest - and the Democratic Party can’t find a single way to leverage that? #democrats #democracy #protest #nokings @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social

The tragedy of the mixing of politics and religion in the United States is that it has transformed the mission of the American church from saving souls to condemning souls. #religion #christianity #church #gop #politics #maga

Remember when Trump ordered flags flown at half-mast, called the governor, and dispatched the VP to the state when Democratic Minnesota State Speaker of the House, Melissa Hortman was assassinated? #guncontrol #politicalviolence #melissahortman

Republicans are not only a threat to the US. They are a threat to the entire planet. They could very well bring on the next plague, Depression, Crusades, and world war. We all - citizens, world leaders, corporations - need to start behaving like this is the existential threat it actually is. #gop

As much as I’ve been looking forward to today’s final, there are moments that require courage and a commitment to democracy and civil liberties. Failing to do so encourages authoritarianism. I won’t be watching. #usopen #democracy #censorship #authoritarianism

We discuss this in the latest episode of Deep Dive. "Extremism never triumphs on its own. It succeeds because others enable it—because of their ambition, because of their fear, or because they misjudge the dangers of small concessions." #democracy #trump #fascism #gop #maga #nazigermany

The US is one of only TWO countries globally that taxes citizens no matter where they live. With renunciations rising 600% since 2010, more expats are asking: at what point does citizenship become more burden than benefit? #leavingamerica #taxes #renunciation #immigration #expats #citizenship

Americans overlook South Africa when considering moves abroad. With widespread English, affordable healthcare, stunning landscapes, and a cost of living that makes your dollars stretch 4x further, it deserves a second look. The visa process is complex but possible. #southafrica #leavingamerica #xpat
