The Republican controlled House fast tracks a bill that would make it easier for Der Trumpenführer to attack his perceived enemies by allowing non-profits, even those focused on domestic policies like abortion and the environment, to be designated as "terrorist supporting" organizations, with no clear definition of the term.

The law would not require officials to explain the reason for designating a group, nor does it require the Treasury Department to provide evidence.
“It basically empowers the Treasury secretary to target any group it wants to call them a terror supporter and block their ability to be a nonprofit,” “ They couldn’t get banks to service them, they won’t be able to get donations, and there’d be a black mark on the organization, even if it cleared its name.”

@LnzyHou My job (yeah, I still work 1 day a week) is in psychiatry. Another small chunk of our patients are homeless. A friend of mine’s sister, until her most recent hospitalization was one. We’re going to see an explosion of homelessness, especially if the brain worm guy is in charge of health care.
Good for him and best wishes.
Checking it out now; recording quality is very good, kinda soundtracky. Not my thing...🤷♂️
Hard for some music peeps to make that "pop to classical/chamber orch" jump -- thinking of your fave (😉) Hornsby, Bjork, etc.
IMHO Zappa did it but I'm a FZ fanatic so 😉
Irish Mexican?
🤔 😆
Here's your soundtrack --

Which D made the firefighter/house fire analogy?
As in, you don't try to find common ground between the firefighter and the house fire.
Damn, that sucks. Sorry. 💔
And fuck them.
Unfortunately we might want to raise our shields in expectation of increased MAGA attacks, both IRL and infranettz...
I fell out with rap once Snoop became popular...'93. So hit me up for Ice T, PE, Run DMC, and a couple of KRS-One albums. And Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy.
That said, the youngsters I work with are all about it (and reggaeton and mariachi, etc etc) so there are decent tracks out there.
I mostly know of Wu-Tang via "Chappelle Show" and Jarmusch's "Ghost Dog." heh

"The Chinese Delegation takes...the RZA, the GZA, the WU-TANG CLAN!" 😉
Are you listening to it, TB? AllMusic blurbed it Friday and I promptly forgot all about it...
RZA
A Ballet Through Mud
Pre-"Platoon" filming, too...it looks like. 🤔 🤓
I used to be a nice boy, I used to cut the grass.
