55 yrs ago this week, 4/17/71, all 4 former Beatles had solo singles in the UK charts:

Paul McCartney: "Another Day,"
Ringo Starr: "It Don’t Come Easy"
John Lennon: "Power To The People"
George Harrison: "My Sweet Lord"

All 4 songs still sound great, 55 yrs later.
Play 'em loud.

For everyone saying that it's too late...that this regime has taken over our government, you are right.

However, will we just give up or will we fight against the most corrupt regime that we have ever had in the history of our nation?

I, for one, will fight the evil Shitler and his regime!

What he says…

The President of the United States calling NATO a paper tiger is Soviet propaganda and I hope someone is writing all this shit down for later

Pay attention folks. This is how it's done. Trump sues his own DOJ, run by his private attorney, for $10 billion. Normally that would go through the courts with the DOJ arguing AGAINST giving Trump $10 billion.

Instead, his DOJ will negotiate a settlement OUTSIDE of court. Literally inside dealing.

The artwork is titled "Pope Leo XIV" and portrays a tension-filled scene between the two figures.

Loved his music, an intelligent man.

Trump is basically a sleeper agent for Putin. His mission....destroy America and the western order. Trump is well on his way to deliver. And...Republicans are enabling him.

Amazing! This is the line to get into Peter Buttigieg’s town hall in Tulsa tonight.

This is a map of major oil pipelines across North America. If we can do this for oil, why don't we do this for water and build reservoirs in areas of heavy rain and move water to drought-stricken areas in the country?
Oh, I forgot, that would be too humanitarian, and no profit involved.

In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

Graceland. When it came out, in 1986, it was quite a surprise, even considered "risky" and "experimental" by some people. Simon flirted with African-influenced music but the result was extremely successful; joyous and uplifting. Still a great listen after all these years.

I feel compelled to say this, though: I may point out things I don’t like about a candidate but if they are a Dem and are on the ballot, they have my support and vote. Don’t mistake my criticism for attack.

Newly unsealed records reveal Amazon’s price-fixing tactics, California attorney general claims Exclusive: A trove of previously redacted documents was filed as part of the tech giant’s anti-trust battle with the sta

In a major state antitrust investigation, California's Attorney General has unsealed hundreds of records revealing that Amazon illegally pressures its marketplace sellers to engage in price-fixing.

While Trump's DOJ lets corporate lawbreakers off the hook, states are still holding them accountable.

Why Pete Hegseth's Tarantino blunder wasn't the least bit surprising America's defense secretary is fixated on a fringe, violent version of Christian Nationalism.

If Hillary Clinton had to testify under oath to Congress about Epstein, why the hell hasn't Melania been brought in? Certainly far more connections to Jeffrey.

Robert Kennedy would now be 100 years old. But his tragic assassination in 1968 denied him the privilege of watching his children grow up. However, the Senator would have been heartbroken to see the morally indefensible harm RFK Jr. is doing to the nation.

The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks.

The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.

It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.
