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. Stay free

I visited Every Meal, which helps feed hungry kids in Minnesota, and spoke with Doug, who has been volunteering there for years. The volunteers at Every Meal and so many people across our state are standing up to help our neighbors being hurt by ICE’s attacks.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign. Gregory Bovino must also be fired. No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

I read this on a colleague’s FB post: I was too young to march in Selma and I’m too old now to march in Minneapolis. Me too. So helped others go and am supporting mutual aid on the ground.

Danish fighter planes. I just read the phrase “Danish fighter planes.” They’re heading to Greenland to help defend against US. We are the WORST FRIENDS EVER. they’re sending Danish fighter planes. To defend. Greenland! Against us. We’ve dropped to a whole new low, my guys. We. We just. We suck.

“It’s been a full year-“ Not yet it hasn’t. “Well, practically. January 20.” It’s December 17. Do you remember how much they’ve done in an entire month EVERY month so far? We’re not even close.

Seriously important message. Please watch.

No one will stop me from defending our freedoms.

The record gliding isn't the most remarkable thing about this creature.
