[Secret Service spotted Trump rally shooter on roof 20 minutes before gunfire erupted]
So either the Secret Service is completely incompetent or they were somehow in on it? (the latter being highly unlikely.. why would they choose a 20 year old kid to do the job?)
Oh man, in this case, this thing will live forever, I can just see Oliver Stone licking his chops.
Oswald was just 24.

Ah, Lyndon Baines Johnson. An incredibly flawed and sometimes disgusting human who did some awful and great things for the world, then started smoking pot and re-thought it all. Interesting no matter your bend.
You can't go 12 miles in Texas without seeing his initials somewhere. Streets, highways, libraries....
Also the democrat who dropped out from the race and got Nixon elected. An analogue for today somewhat.
He adapted that quote from Lady and Tramp, which cribbed it from Gorky....
It's like Gorky says in "Lower Depths". Quote, "Miserable being must find more miserable being. Then, he is happy." Unquote.

I have, perhaps, the dumbest question.
Why is the Green Party running Stein again?
Maybe I'm asking it as a rhetorical question but I'd be interested in hearing thoughts on why they think this could work this time.

It’s No conspiracy. Someone called it a competency crisis. Michael Lewis wrote about it in The 5th Risk. It’s a fundamental loss of purpose. They care more about politics and self.

All that said it's possible and more than time for bands, big and small, to step-up in a collective manner against Trump and fascism.
I'm still waiting for all that great, amazing punk rock we were supposed to get starting from 2017. Suppose I could make some myself. If not for this crippling ADHD & chronic mid-grade depression.
