Any artists getting anything done in this era deserve a big fucking medal, or at least cappuccino & slice of carrot cake.

Noem asked to retract comments calling Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., pushed Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to retract her previous statements labeling Renee Good and Alex Pretti as domestic terrorists. Noem said she was ...

Americans watched as federal agents killed two Minnesotans.

Now their families have to watch Kristi Noem continue to lie about it.

Here's the poem I wrote for the ICE OUT anthology, published by Calumet Editions a few weeks ago.

Hazzards

I found my neighbor’s car
In the middle of the street.
Driver’s door, open.
Engine, still running.
Coffee, still warm.

Netanyahu and his vile, corrupt, ilk have figured out that sexual Kompromat can not only control American policy, but the policies of many of their heretofore "unfriendly" neighbors in the Middle East.

99% of the Citizens of the world oppose this bullshit.

It's the oligarchs vs. *the rest of us.*

The Tales From Gichi Gami Series is Earth-focused.

Do we walk the talk? Yes, we do. Here's a video tour of our home the summer after we built it. Some things have changed, for example: No more IRA (there are still state incentives). We learned to leave the floor heat higher (69F) and not touch it.

This book is extraordinary. A good friend in Stockholm (who has read my books) strongly recommended that I read it. One of the main themes is a friendship developing between a teenager and an older person.

Do any other writers have trouble watching series with horrible dialogue? I completely stopped watching Stranger Things because of this, and last night made it all of two minutes into Manifest before snapping and starting Lincoln Lawyer (which is awesome).

Listen to this ICE whistleblower.

This is why Trump’s iteration of ICE needs to be completely dismantled and its leadership impeached.

Here are the men who laughed at a misogynistic joke by a sex-trafficking, pedophile, rapist alongside another man who is actively covering up the Epstein Files.

Never forget them.

Every single Democrat running for office needs to articulate what they are going to do to repair & improve our laws on the media and speech.

Even with a Democratic trifecta in 2028, we're not getting through this with this Constitution and this (dis)information environment.

The key to defeating Trump? Mass non-cooperation | Mark Engler and Paul Engler Our studies in civil resistance offer insight into the level of popular organizing needed to repel assaults on democracy

This is one of the most important articles I've read in a long time. Please read. Then go to Nonviolenceinternational & get the PDF of nonviolent resistance tactics.

I did.

Now I'm getting the book. Share w your small groups. Plan. Prepare. We're not close to being through this.

But we can win.

Bad Bunny's halftime show was extraordinary & you should watch it.

Latinos are special to me, maybe more than any other cultural group anywhere. My first crush was in Mexico. My first real love, in Spain. Spanish is a beautiful language, spoken by beautiful people. www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6Fu...

My publisher, Calumet Editions, put out an emergency call to all our writers for pieces on resistance. I have a poem in the book and am looking forward to seeing what y fellow Minnesotans created.

Thanks for supporting local artists and the Minnesota resistance!
