Day 100. Near Richmond City Hall, thousands fell into step with venerable monks walking for peace. Footsteps became prayer. Silence became resolve. Onward to Washington, DC, they carry calm like a flame against the dark.

If peace had a face, it walked today.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Public outrage, sustained attention, and effort by elected officials can together make a real difference.
Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

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.

New Lancet review of 40+ studies: no evidence Tylenol (acetaminophen) in pregnancy causes autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability.

“Miss, do you agree with the sign?”

Amid the fog of war, clarity is often hard to find. But, if this story is true, there is nothing unclear or ambiguous about it.

This was either a war crime (if we believe that the killings are covered by the laws of war) or it was simply cold-blooded murder.
