This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

Just remembered there’s a No Kings song on WAR BALLADS.

If you find this helpful for your coming No Kings event(s), feel free to use it whenever and however. Totally free for any use.

(Yes, there are lyrics; an instrumental vibe check comes first, though.)
