ICE may have left Minneapolis, but we cannot afford to forget what they did there — it matters for all of us and our democracy.

In 1933, the camps came first. For those of us lost, we are at March 1933. This is not a drill. #iceout

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

Curious why ICE and CBP agents are so brutal? Here's a useful explainer I wrote last week, before Saturday's outrageous murder, about how uniquely unsuited ICE and CBP are for this moment—and why they were so corruptible into Trump's own fascist secret police: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...

"ICE 101" — How Trump changed ICE and CBP into a fascist secret police
ICE and CBP are fatally flawed products of the post-9/11 War on Terror — now Trump has weaponized those very flaws to occupy America.

If you call because your social security check didn't arrive you are a "fraudster". Unbelievable. You paid into SSA your whole life. That money is yours. In 2025 SSA benefits represented ~31% of income of people over 65. Seniors NEED this. #factcheckfriday #eattherich www.ssa.gov/news/press/f...
