Ran across this blast from the past, written by 2 friends of mine, Denny Lile & Ron Reed.
Here’s a cut from WLRS 102’s Homenade album back in ‘76, by their band Puddin’ Foot!
Waylon recorded it in 1987 on his Hangin’ Tough album.

Only the military remains outside Trump’s grip. Despite the firing of several top officers—and his threat to fire more—the U.S. armed forces are still led by generals and admirals whose oath is to the Constitution, not the president. But for how long?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

In the days after last week's Minneapolis shooting, I've been continually haunted by the shooter's video and the nihilistic contagion that seems to spread in mass shooter fandom communities. I spoke to @alexbnewhouse.bsky.social about how to process this terrible phenomenon w/o helping perpetuate it

I wrote about what I think is a genuinely revealing document of elite depravity and impunity. It is shocking and sickening. But it's also a crucial moment. We're about to see what happens when conspiracy theorists actually get what they asked for but it turns out not to be what they want.

My take on the cruel and all too usual Republican budget: Ignores reality, endangers everyone, and makes safety-net remedies as complicated as possible—knowing and perhaps even intending that the result will be stunted and wrecked lives. @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/republican...
The Party of ‘Denihilism’
Republicans are rejecting reality while embracing destruction—just look at the House budget megabill.

It’s National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day! As most of you know, I’m a passionate advocate for adoption. Not only to save the lives of superb shelter cats like Fergus & Francie, but to withhold money from the commercial breeding world which has done tremendous harm to the health of so many “purebreds”. 💔
