The word for today is "indignation". That summary comes from the USA's own history via a USA historian, one of the two that I keep mentioning so often. That pair of USA historians called the USA officially a fascist government several days (weeks?) ago. In that same vein, I didn't catch this news originally, but this morning I saw that our Minnesota Governor Walz compared events now to Nazi occupation.

Which brings me to today's theme song. The lyrics feature the primary chant during the march where one group called out "F**K ICE!" and the other group responded with "ICE OUT!" We continued that process occasionally throughout the 2+ hours that I was at the march. Another chant was the ever popular "This is what democracy looks like!" CAUTION: This video is loud, and it uses the same crude language throughout. I would normally include the great lyrics, written below the video as is my custom, except for the same crude language. It's appropriate, though.

I like this video primarily because it has excellent drone footage of the downtown march in Minneapolis during the general strike on Friday last week. I need to find an original source for it. The crowd was enormous. Tens of thousands of people. This video footage is great. The crowd attendance was great.
