From @springsteen : 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, Bruce Springsteen

Republicans launched their illegal assault on our government and American families on January 20, and we will not ignore the devastation they’ve caused in just two months. People lost their jobs. The economy is in freefall. Veterans have been tossed aside like garbage. Families are furious. And now these same cowardly Republicans—too scared to even look their own voters in the eye at town halls—want to hand Trump and Musk a blank check to slash, gut, and hijack federal funding however they damn well please. This isn’t just corruption; it’s a full-blown power grab. I’ve said it directly to Democratic leaders across the party: we will not stand for this. Republicans have a choice: negotiate in good faith with Democrats, or own the chaos they’re unleashing. They are threatening Social Security, ripping Medicaid away from hundreds of thousands, gutting schools, veterans' services, and public lands—all to line the pockets of their ultra-wealthy donors with obscene tax cuts. It’s disgusting. Americans deserve a responsible, bipartisan budget—not one dictated by Trump’s whims. Congress—not that wannabe dictator—must control federal spending. And since Republicans are too spineless to face their own constituents, Democrats will do it for them. Starting this weekend, we’re heading into red districts in every state to hold in-person town halls and listen to voters who are mad as hell at what Trump, Musk, and the GOP are doing to this country. The fight isn’t coming—it’s already here.
