Loved this single from the moment I heard it when it first came out. I was already a massive Roddy Frame fan AND a Mick Jones (Clash/ B.A.D.) fan.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

I only got to hear Todd Snider in concert one time, when a friend who wanted me to hear him invited me to the show at the Great American in SF. It was such a memorable night, and not just because Ramblin Jack Elliott was on stage with him. Sad to hear that Todd Snider has passed on, far too young.

You may notice a lot Trump critics being accused of “mortgage fraud” lately. Trump’s accomplice Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) under Donald Trump, has been using his position to level accusations of mortgage fraud against several of Trump's political rivals.
