The song is also going to be the theme song for the new TV miniseries “The Gray House”, which is about Union Spies during the civil war.

I can’t find a stand alone video anywhere yet but it plays full screen on the livestream and it’s kind of amazing. It starts at about 2:30:00 on the livestream. (Queued up above).

Mass People's Assembly Moral March and Mobilization on Raleigh YouTube video by Repairers of the Breach

Last week we marched from Wilson, NC to Raleigh @repairers.bsky.social. During the assembly on the final day, Willie Nelson sent in a music video of his new song “The Heart of America” with footage of the march over the past three days.

There are approximately 2,000 National Guard still deployed in DC and about 1,100 miles of road. If each soldier was responsible for digging out a quarter mile of road per day, our streets would have been clear by yesterday. @mayorbowser.dc.gov

Long Rallies Aren’t Just Boring, They Make Us Less Safe Unwieldy rally programs and speakers blowing past time slots aren’t just annoyances to roll our eyes at, they’re adding unnecessary risk

Unwieldy rally programs and speakers blowing past their time slots aren’t just annoyances to roll our eyes at, they’re introducing unnecessary risks for our people.

National Guard members do not want to be used as political props. They want to be home with their families. The only person who wants them here is Trump.

Police killed three people in DC last week and now this. When will this administration stop escalating and putting people in harm's way?

We are just one day in to the MAGA Shutdown. Already we can tell that Republicans’ failure to fund the government is going to have a devastating impact on millions of working class American families, but the stakes are too high to back down now. Our healthcare is worth fighting for.

The old legal aphorism is "A grand jury would indict a ham sandwich" ... but apparently a DC grand jury won't indict somebody for throwing a ham sandwich during a federal occupation.

People are being forced out of DC. The cost of living is too high, and Trump is waging an all-out assault on the District.

It should be easier and more affordable to build a life here.

That's why I’m running for DC Council in Ward 1.

Sending a message tonight to Trump's Sec. of Commerce Scott Bessent, who:

💰 Called concerns about oligarchy "class envy" during his confirmation hearing
🙅‍ Opposes raising the min wage, claiming it "distorts markets"
🔒 Protects power and pushes for fewer corporate regulations.
