Seems apt for these times we're in. This is our live version of Get Right Church, an old gospel blues spiritual.

Trump regime ICE trooper: “we’re just following orders” As they illegally kidnapped people for Trump’s ethnic cleansing campaign. #StopICE

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

John and I watched this last night and it's really great. @ricksteves.bsky.social produced a beautifully humanizing show about his tour of Iran in 2009 (and has also done the same on Israel/Gaza). www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-l...

Lookin forward to being back in Hood River this Fri 6/20 for a show at The Pines 1852 Tasting Room (415 Oak St) 6-9 pm.

Genuine Question because I Do not understand… so if these men roll up in plain clothes and masks, grab a human being… even a child, and throw them in an unmarked vehicle I am just supposed to look the other way and say nothing ?? Ask Nothing ?

Who was MN Rep. Melissa Hortman in the MN Legislature? READ about her consequential leadership in this THREAD by @taniel.bsky.social. Take the time.

I wish Leo Kottke's "Circle 'Round the Sun" would be re-released- you can't find it anywhere (word is that he didn't like this recording). Glad to have the original on vinyl. "If Mama Knew" is so good. I sing it in my head (I'm a daughter and a mother).

Called my US Senators yesterday to asked that they use procedural tactics to halt all bills, appointments, etc. and deal with military occupation of LA. Calling them today, too. Find yours and CALL their DC ofc. Emails are okay, calls are better. @jeff-merkley.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov

THIS. It's time to start holding everyone accountable (including ourselves) for these horrors. @jeff-merkley.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov - halt the gears and shout it out!

I have a new hero. This owl stole a child's hobby horse and flies around with it!

I'm making music with these krezzy gents this coming Sat 6/14 at Pelican Brewing's Tillamook Tap House 5-7 pm pelicanbrewing.com/happenings/e... #mojoholler #tillamook #hollerheads

Probably preaching to the choir here but, some data from the 1960s.

Siren Nation's 19th Annual Dolly Hoot at Alberta Rose Theater, Portland OR

A while back, I found some comic book wallpaper and made several hybrid/collage pieces #art

“Being older is fantastic. That’s the thing I didn’t understand when I was young. I was always told that it was going to be horrible. Instead, I’ve found nothing but comfort. I just feel like my brain has been switched on." tinyurl.com/yc5hay5z

This is fascinating. petapixel.com/2025/05/27/t...

I did a short run of our 1st Annual Mojo Holler posters. 12x16" 100# text poster stock. I'm signing each one and selling for $10. If you want to reserve one and pick it up at a show, send me a dm or comment. Lots of great shows coming up- mojoholler.com/tour. Or I can mail - dm me. #art #pdx

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled courts must assess the full context of a police encounter when determining what constitutes excessive force — not just the moments right before the lethal force. Over 1,300 people were killed by police last year. This ruling will help hold the police accountable.

Hey there! My band Mojo Holler joins a fantastic group of lady musicians for Siren Nation's 19th Annual Dolly Hoot at Alberta Rose Theater on June 7. It's going to be a blast! I grew up in East TN just down the road from Dolly's hometown, & I'm so excited to fete my heroine! #pdx #pdxposts

Word has spread that Musk adviser Chris Young is making as much as $1 million a year, while simultaneously working as a political adviser to Musk and holding a position inside the Department of Government Efficiency.

For everyone who was like “Google search is getting worse,” we were absolutely right.

"So the fact that the city of Troy is getting a GIFT, FREE OF CHARGE, of a beautiful giant wooden horse..."

🚨 Disturbing footage shows the brutal arrest of a terrified 16-year-old girl—sobbing, screaming as “ICE agents” abducted her mom without a warrant or ID. At least 4 grown men slammed her face into the pavement. This is child abuse. This is state terror. Worcester police are complicit.
