Are there any current artists in the mold of Seeger, the Guthrie's, or Phil Ochs ?
I've been listening to the old protest songs and wanting something more current.
Last Train to Nuremberg, I Dont Want Your Millions (Seeger)
Deportees (Arlo)
Ppower and Glory (Ochs)
Tear the Facists Down (Woody)

Why can't Democratic leaders have these simple talking points?
To put this in perspective, the federal government spends *a combined* $33 billion each year on Title I (for low income families) and IDEA (for special needs students).
Breaking news: ICE expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the U.S. and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of people, according to agency documents.

You might already be used to thinking of ICE/CBP/etc. campaigns as looking like what you've seen in Minnesota.
But this administration is not entirely full of dipshit goobers, and they HAVE learned some lessons from their time there. Now they're evolving:

Ukrainian luger Olena Smaga supported Heraskevych. After one of her runs, she showed her hand with the words written on it: "Remembrance is not a violation."
Soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine also supported Ukraine’s Olympic team, which reminds the world about athletes killed by Russia.

Warner: "There is a very real threat without reforms at ICE that you could have ICE patrols around polling stations. And people say, 'Why would that matter if they're all American citizens?' We've seen ICE discriminate against Latinos ... you don't need to do a lot to discourage people from voting"

Stinging dissent from Judge Dana Douglass (Obama appointee) who chillingly sums up the consequences. Over 2 million people including those who have resided in the country can be held without bond hearings. The court’s reading means “the border is everywhere.”
