The November tour in Australia is growing! Still plenty of room for more gigs, and we'll happily play at protests for free, so feel free to drop me a line, and please tell folks about these shows!
Trolling, and cancellation campaigning, is a horrible practice, and the sooner we non-trolls can all figure that out, and get on the same page as far as how to deal with it, the better.

I was deeply honored to be a guest on a program on national television in Iran last night, on Channel 2. My favorite part was this one-minute video montage they aired at the end of the interview.
I thought the song I wrote for @samhusseini's Congressional campaign needed a music video.

“Sam is Running for Congress” — song 🎶 🎵 by @drovics — campaign video 💗
What would humanity have done during the Nazi holocaust with the benefit of hindsight? Probably just what we're doing now, with no need for hindsight, since today it's all being livestreamed.

Christianity was used as a pretext for empire — slavery and indigenous slaughter — for centuries. Now imperial Israel has become the galvanizing force for empire.

Thank you, Keith! Food Not Bombs sums up much of what I've strived for -- so it's so meaningful to have your support.
Folks -- our legal system is so messed up that Keith has been repeatedly arrested for the dastardly act of trying to feed hungry people.
Some of the worst people have so much power over the real heroes. That needs to change, NOW!

Israeli soldiers in Southern Lebanon are seen ‘jokingly’ giving a tour of a displaced family’s home while rigging it with explosives.
More than 1.2 million people have been forcibly displaced as a result of Israel’s attacks and reinvasion of Southern Lebanon.

This is all true. This former GOP state legislator closely aligned with DeSantis and Randy Fine -- Mike Caruso -- was arrested in August on charges of sexually abusing multiple young kids in his family, including his grandson and a niece.
He had previously advocated the death penalty for pedophiles. This picture is when Caruso, Randy Fine and DeSantis went to Israel in 2023 to sign a "hate speech" law that restricted the free speech rights of Floridians on behalf of Israel. They signed it in Israel.

Thank you Kshama. Your push for workers rights is inspiring.
The tax burden must be much more on the wealthy and huge corporations.
We need to take on the Epstein class like never before, the corporate model has juiced up the power of the rich and must be seriously challenged.
I am proud to endorse @samhusseini's campaign for the U.S. Congress. Sam is running independent of the two genocidal parties of the billionaire class as a Green Party candidate.
Sam has shown a willingness to go to battle against the Democratic Party, and has already publicly and courageously confronted Democratic genocide purveyors like Senator Chuck Schumer and Biden's Secretary of State Antony Blinken. This is urgently needed if we are going to turn the tables on the political establishment and fight for a different kind of society.
I strongly support Sam’s calls for an end to all aid to the apartheid Israeli state, for universal public healthcare, and to dramatically increase taxes on the rich.
