This summer Bruce donated his entire $12.9m tour bonus & sponsorship deal
to build homeless centres in New Jersey. 

He said his music has always been about working people who’ve been left behind and he wanted to take action ❤️

Feeling a little "minimal" this morning.
There is less chaos. Less clutter.
Simplicity.

The White House wants to ban the press from taking & publishing photos 📸 of the East Wing’s demolition. This isn’t security, it’s damage control.
