Not a shocking response in 2025 sadly.
I met a fan after my show with a DJ in Brazil who said that she would love to see me perform with a band. I told her if she was ever in an American city that I was in with my band, I would put her on the list. She said no thank you. She explained that she is scared to come to America because of ICE.

It feels like time to share this again. Charlie Chaplin’s final speech in The Great Dictator is arguably the greatest monologue ever committed to film. I’ve seen it dozens of times & cry every single time.

There is absolutely NO situation in which Donald Trump will serve a third term as President of *these* United States, full stop.
Don’t get distracted. This Administration and the GOP are undermining the Constitution and Rule of Law. We must continue to raise our voices!

THIS is a man who knows what fascism looks like… and he’s not about to let it walk back into his life quietly. Do what you can.
An elderly holocaust survivor confronts ICE and Tom Homan.
His bravery after what he has experienced and endured shows his incredible indomitable spirit even the Nazis couldn’t crush.

Impossible to say this any better. But maybe we could take a crack at saying it louder.
Mr. President, your silence in this very chaotic and frightening time leaves us rudderless. I am acutely aware of the norms of behavior for former Presidents. However we need a leader desperately. You've already given so much, and we need you now more than ever.

So timely. Fake news will ultimately be revealed to be just that, but be mindful of the reality that if we’re not vocal objectors, if we permit institutionalized false narratives we run the risk of living with falsehoods… for generations.

One story about Galileo is probably apocryphal. But, in the wake of RFK Jr.’s appointment to head Health and Human Services, it’s too good to resist.

After yesterday's events in the White House, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway's largest marine fuel companies, appears to have announced that it will no longer refuel American Navy vessels.
Haltbakk has called on other European companies to refuse service to American forces.
