Stansbury issued a damning rebuttal to Vanceโ€™s Dismantle DEI Act of 2024 which was brought to a mark-up without a hearing.

โ€œIf this is really about making sure that we have qualified individuals inside the federal government, why is the president-elect choosing absolutely unqualified Cabinet secretaries to be at the head of every single agency?โ€

โ€œWeโ€™ve got now a World Wide Wrestling Executive whoโ€™s gonna run education. Weโ€™ve got a Fox News commentator whoโ€™s gonna run the military for us!โ€

You have to marvel at the arrogance of Musk railing against the regulations imposed by unelected officials as he and Vivek, both billionaire private citizens, make their plans to impose their massive changes to the structure of the government, as unelected oligarchs.

I can't seem to find any photos of those 2 together... Have they ever actually met? Are they just doing their disruptive bullshit thru tweets?


Soul singer Dean Parrish (real name Philip Anastasi) had a crazy career. He played guitar sessions for Herbie Mann, Santana & Hendrix in the early 70's.
Unknown to him that he was a star in the UK. Someone found him & he played to 1000's at the 2001 Weekend festival.

Dean Parrish - Determination, 1966

Dean Parrish - I'm On My Way, 1967 NYC
*this song didn't become a hit until 1975 because DJ's were playing in the UK's clubs.

I am still waking up most days worrying about my country and the damage that the Republicans are going to do.
It would be easier to look away some of the time if I didn't live in the DC area where so many of us work for the gov.

The above UK record label re-releases soul records. They made a mistake with the above record, it is not Timmy Willis, I found this on the internet:

Hegseth is an even creepier predator than I thought:

A woman told police that she was sexually assaulted in 2017 by Pete Hegseth after he took her phone, blocked the door to a California hotel room and refused to let her leave, according to a detailed investigative report made public late Wednesday.
