Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)

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.

Men who defend Jonathan Ross for murdering Renee Good are not safe to be around. End those relationships.

In universe of what matters right now, Golden Globes hardly matter. Still gotta say: One Battle After Another is utterly male film w/o humanist soul/brilliance of Sinners. Jordan & Coogler’s work was innovative, spectacular, moving, important. Failure to award that work? Unsurprising in this era.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was β€œunanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Crowd shot at No Kings protest featuring about 30 signs all crammed together, most too hard to read because of the way the shot is taken.

Lots to say about No Kings rallies, but for now just this: anyone who thinks this was "terrorism" is fucked in the head.

Important deaths: death of free speech; death of expertise; death of freedom of assembly; death of consensus on the evil of murder; death of science; death of scholarly inquiry; death of empathy; death of democracy.

Jimmy Kimmel didn't kill Charlie Kirk. But Kirk's death has set the terms by which McFascist thinks he can punish people whenever and however harshly he feels like it. He already thought that, but this makes it easier. And McFascist's glee about this cuts directly against his supposed grief.

Reading about pouchy Vance leading the charge against a supposed network of leftists inciting violence, I am reminded of the apocryphal story of the frogs in gradually heating water.

We are the frogs.

This is another one of those "conceding the frame" problems. By arguing that crime is worse in the states that are sending National Guard troops to DC, we're conceding the connection between the National Guard and law enforcement.

The National Guard has nothing to do with policing. Full stop.

My mom's family has been in Florida "since slavery times." My Grandma was born & raised in St. Petersburg. I went to undergrad in Tallahassee. Dozens of relatives still in the Tampa area.

Keeping cool + keeping water and critters out will be a constant challenge.

This camp is designed to torture.
