Trump’s federal thugs beat up on His face and his chest Then we heard the gunshots And Alex Pretti lay in the snow, dead Their claim was self defense, sir Just don’t believe your eyes It’s our blood and bones And these whistles and phones Against Miller and Noem’s dirty lies

Actually, I started searching. Chimes was the first possibility I saw, but I listened to a bit of it and ruled it out. Then, I gave up and posted the question. :)

Well this sure explains the weather here in the Deep South this week! I jest! I said I wasn’t gonna complain about the cold as long as Minnesotans are out defending their communities in it, and I won’t!

Always on the side of the righteous, Bruce. I hope your music gives the people the strength to continue the fight against tyranny and oppression. Looking forward to the follow up song about this regimes trials and convictions for crimes against humanity

Thank you! Beautiful and to the point calling out those who are behind all of this horror. May they be held accountable, all up the chain of command, and the shooters on the ground. This is on all the racists and fascists who voted for trump bc he promised to harm the people they hate and fear.

I remember when the government announced the lottery. The numbers 1 thru 365 plus for 2/29 the leap year. Boys starting at age 18 ,their birthday coincided with a number by which you'd get drafted. #1would definitely get called up 366 probably not. Fortunate boys got higher numbers.

My boyfriend who is now my husband and my mom were listening to the numbers being called and my husband's number was in the 300,'s, my brother in the 200's. It was a horrible time. Many friends got called up right away, some died. One friend moved to Canada Rich people had bone spurs.

A tiny sample of the songs whose lyrics I used while researching the Vietnam-era protest movement (in no particular order). There were 100s, and even though I didn't know most of them, these are some of the ones I listened to. Most are still relevant today. I'm sure many people still remember these.

Merci, chere Parisienne! I’ll be passing through in July; honestly hope to be mistakenly assumed to be a Canadian rather than an American, for the obvious reasons. (Been accused of possibly being Dutch; at least my accent in French isn’t a giveaway.)

Dave Robinson
@daverobinsonhere.bsky.social

Powerful stuff even though it is shades of Dylan’s Desolation Row! I’m not a Springsteen fan as such but Ive just listen to it repeatedly for the past half hour - great to see an actual protest song coming out right now! ✊👍

Police goons? The police have not supported the ICE goons and have been behaving responsibly in Minneapolis. A few facts might help make sense of what you’re posting.

Th Boss has always been there for Americans when our souls were aching. Born to Run got me through the angst of the 70s. Thanks for being here again.

@katbuns.bsky.social

Thank you, Boss! 🥰 One of the many incredible things about Bruce writing an anthem like this is that he exists forever-loved in our hearts while Trump can only envy such a thing. I hope Trump‘s black little heart shrivels more and finally quits when he hears this song.

CALI GIRL
@calidemocrat.bsky.social

Thank you all the way from CA. This song is awesome and so are you, one of our greatest defenders of Democracy. You help heal our wounded hearts with your music. 💙

That ☝️ The Boss exemplifies what true patriotism looks like. It's not jingolistic bullsh*t It doesn't get infatuated with some catchy line (Born in the USA) to miss the deeper & often uglier truths that we must seek if we are to make the dream of America into a reality

Wow! Thank you boss for an outstanding tribute to this amazing city. Your song brought tears to my eyes and warmed my soul. You are a brilliant songwriter and musician. Love you so much!

Mr Springsteen, Your song was very moving & brought tears to my eyes for multiple reasons. Firstly, feeling compassion for those lives lost & their grieving families & scared communities. 🙏Secondly, my brother was a fan of yours & passed away yrs ago. Your music helps me remember him. Thank you ❤️

Genuine, photoshopped or AI? #AltText a recent photo of Bruce Springsteen walking in a group of people, wearing sunglasses, wearing a shirt with text that reads SAME SHIT DIFFERENT MASK. There's an illustration of a person's face, vertically split, half in a Klan hood, half in camo ICE style mask.

I too agree with the sentiment, and am a lifelong fan of The Bruce (since the early 70's), but I feel disrespected and angry by fakes like this, no matter which celebrity face is stuck on it (unless its tRump's, for which I make exception!).

In this day, we sweat it out on the streets of a run around on the American dream because champs like us baby were not born to ever run. I feel these words were always in the hearts and personal constitutions of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. In an everlasting miss!🥺 Let us adopt... and mend. -Spent

Kurt Weldon
@kurtweldon.bsky.social

Thank you for saying "state terror" instead of the usual "out-of-control" or "rogue." The federal government of the United States as currently constituted is a terrorist organization. It is past time to characterize it as anything else.

Graham Cox
@grahamcox82.bsky.social

Big and provable isn't enough. Remember that when it became apparent that not only was Trump a pedophile, but there was evidence to prove this, suddenly MAGA people started trying to normalise this. Like Megyn Kelly publicly stating that raping 15-year-olds wasn't as big a deal as younger girls...

Matt Damsel
@mattdamsel.bsky.social

The die-hards, yes. Nothing will sway them. But each time something big comes out regardless the Epstein scandal, Trump does actually lose more and more of his supporters. William Sascha Riley's case is bigger than any of the previous ones. I guarantee it will sway a chunk of Trump's base.

McLevy the Candle Alchemist
@mclevy.bsky.social

This huge mess of endless text & audio files needs to be edited down into a cinematic 90 sec to 3 min drama to fit into an average American's attention span. Otherwise, Riley's experience will still go unheard. A longer documentary could follow, maybe on 60 Minutes or 20/20 - if they grow the balls.

Thanx Bruce, this Song touches the heart. Songs helps to resist. Songs give us the power to stand together. Let’s move forward to kick the fascists off!

In over two years you never had time to write a song in response to the ongoing genocide in Gaza (maybe it´s happening too far away for you?), but had time enough to endorse those who supported and financed it. Can´t stay free while it is happening and the enablers and perpetrators are free
