I'm a musician, trekkie, gym rat, and political junkie. I enjoy writing music, especially for choirs, and I think that making music together is one of the best ways we can heal our world. 🌈🍉

The United States now has a concentration camp thanks to the Republicans. Will they continue down the road Germany paved in the 1930s, or will they repent? Only time will tell, but my money is on them continuing to drive the train toward the cliff.

Before you open your mouth to ask about straight pride, read this story. This is why we need pride month, and we will continue needing it until murderers like this one (and all who make excuses for them) are forever removed from the face of the earth.

GOP claimed that COVID contact tracing was “government overreach.” They said that background checks violated freedom. They wanted to ban data collection about gun violence. But now they have hired Palantir to track us all. This is the machinery of a surveillance state, run by billionaires.

Why should we help poor people? Because doing so will help all Americans be healthier and wealthier. It doesn't even have to be about morality or empathy. Just cold, hard dollar bills. But don't take my word for it. Listen to an economist explain... youtu.be/GqzX-7KY2XY?...

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

Introducing the “Republican Jesus”. He’s pro-gun, anti-welfare, builds walls not bridges, blesses tax cuts for the rich, favors punishment over mercy, and asks for insurance before healing the sick.
