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.

Think of the outrage, if while in office, a movie called ‘Michelle’ had been released while Obama was in office.

This man is so comforting to listen to. He brings hope.
Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.

They murdered him.

Breaking NYT:
The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.
That is a war crime called "perfidy."

I am 77. This is the worst timeline I have ever lived through (except for maybe when my husband was in Vietnam). Democracy is slipping away at an accelerated pace. All that we fought for around the world is being trampled on by an out of control Administration.

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up.
Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.
