BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen drops a bomb on MAGA world by announcing a surprise nationwide tour to defend America against "our wannabe king" and his "rogue government."

Best of all? The first stop is in Minneapolis.

"Fans, friends, and good folk from coast to coast. We are living through dark, disturbing, and dangerous times, but do not despair. The cavalry is coming," The Boss said in an announcement video.

"Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour," he continued. "We will be rocking your town in celebration and in defense of America, American democracy, American freedom, our American Constitution, and our sacred American dream, all of which are under attack by our wannabe king and his rogue government in Washington, D.C."

"Everyone, regardless of where you stand or what you believe in, is welcome," Springsteen added. "So come on out and join the united free republic of E Street Nation for an American spring of rock and rebellion. I'll see you there."

By starting the tour in Minneapolis, Springsteen is intentionally drawing attention to the brutal violence and killings that Trump has inflicted on the city with his masked federal agents. The singer composed the hit song "Streets of Minneapolis" in response to the ICE crackdowns. It went on to chart #1 in 21 countries.

The tour starts March 31st and will entail 20-date arena showings. The timing is an absolute disaster for Trump, because it means the bard of blue collar America will be hammering his administration at one sold-out show after another. Given his rock bottom approval rating and worsening Epstein scandal, Trump can scarcely afford more bad press ahead of the midterm elections.

Springsteen has proven to be one of Trump's most formidable and outspoken foes. He recognizes that this president has betrayed the working class that populate so many of his hit songs and he despises the relentless attacks on our democracy.

Please ❤️ and share to thank Bruce Springsteen!

Thanks to everyone who came to The Book Bag Open Mic Session 2 this evening and sharing such exceptional work.

It’s fascinating to hear poems that you’ve seen on the page read live as intended and listen to new readers.

Next session is Sunday 8th March.

Enjoyed The How in the World by Louise Longson, @LouisePoetical, (Hedgehog Press). Her eco poetics are never didactic or preachy, and the imagery and lyricism are hauntingly beautiful. An important collection deserving of a wide readership.

[Jenny Robb @jirobb]

Lovely review! Buy from me if interested. Dm for details. Thank you @LouisePoetical

[Louise Longson - Pushcart nominated @LouisePoetical]

This terrific collection from @jirobb has been filling my time and thoughts. Tremendously powerful, beautifully written and spoke so much and so loudly to me that I shuddered with the resonance and blast of echoes. Buy from @YafflePress
