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.

@startribune.com you can use this advice in so many situations
A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I am so mad that US media keep saying “local official dispute the statements from the federal government.” what US media should be saying is “video evidence disputes the lies coming from this administration.” NPR just said this 10 minutes ago and it’s so aggravating. @npr.org @mprnews.org
The answer is no and we are all waiting for us news outlets to report what they see and not repeat propaganda
International outlets continue to be the best at simply reporting what they see. Have any local papers called out how the witness videos contradict the DHS statement as well as this Guardian piece?

This morning, on a street in Minneapolis, at least seven federal agents tackled and then shot and killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse for the local VA hospital.
