The Mothers of Invention live in 1968

I saw them in 1969 and I would say it was similar to the first two clips – mostly instrumental instead of songs.

Barr misrepresented the Mueller report

I would call this lying.

To recap:

– Mueller failed by refusing to state a conclusion
– Barr publicly distorted Mueller’s findings
– DOJ drafted this flimsy, ass-covering memo
– Barr misled a federal court about this bogus memo
– Garland appealed on Barr’s behalf, and lost.

NEW: memo is out explaining Barr’s decision not to prosecute Trump for obstruction revealed by Mueller

No wonder a series of judges have slammed Barr for dishonesty in connection with all this

It’s garbage. Anyone else woulda been prosecuted. Barr should be disciplined. pic.twitter.com/MCUGihoNon

2/ Vol II of the Mueller report detailed numerous episode raising potential obstruction of justice concerns. Barr purported to clear Trump of all of them, but never publicly discussed many of them. Here are some of the most important ones from the report: https://t.co/7ttde6qAkT

BREAKING: no discussion in memo of Barr telling Special Counsel Mueller that he should make the decision whether Trump obstructed justice. Why? Because new DOJ memo reveals they thought Mueller Report could be read to say he did obstruct! So Barr shd say the opposite.

What they’re finding when water is low because of drought

Smells like Mafia Dumping Ground.

Bodies have been found and sunken boats reemerged as Lake Mead plummets and the Colorado River shrinks. More water cuts are coming to try to save the river basin #CriminalLaw #Justice #LawEnforcement

A third set of human remains was recovered from Lake Mead on Monday, thanks to a drought that’s receded the water level at the largest reservoir in the United States to an unprecedented low.https://t.co/9IFphRiF18

One of the worst droughts on record in Europe has parched the continent’s major waterways.

This week, low water levels on the Serbian section of the Danube river exposed a graveyard of sunken German warships filled with explosives and ammunition. https://t.co/tZ2ZHUHbod

Covers: Down South in New Orleans

The original version of “Down South in New Orleans” (as “South in New Orleans”) was by Jonnie and Jack in 1953.

The Band performed it in 1976 at the Last Waltz with Dr. John and Bobby Charles. It was on the three-record set but it’s not in the film.

Covers: Acadian Driftwood

I recommend following The Paranoid Style on Twitter. She has great posts on music. The Paranoid Style is also a band that has released albums.

“Acadian Driftwood” was recorded by The Band in 1975.

The cascading highlight of The Band’s final masterpiece ‘Northern Lights- Southern Cross’, “Acadian Driftwood” is one part history lesson and one part haunted communion with the resonances of past horrors. Music made by and for refugees. Displacement and zydeco. Tears of grief.

Covers: All You Fascists Bound To Lose

Woody Guthrie wrote the lyrics for “All You Fascists Bound To Lose” and recorded a brief version. Billy Bragg and Wilco recorded it with music by Bragg for Mermaid Avenue. Vol. II which was released in 2000.

Election deniers are winning many Republican primaries

This is terrible and will impact the 2024 elections.

Update: With overt election denier Chuck Gray's victory in Wyoming last night, there are now 11 states with Republican nominees for secretary of state (state elections chief), out of 27 races this year, who have questioned or rejected the 2020 results. https://t.co/uJDgnd4p3Y
