A story about an unpleasant incident I had in Lewiston, ID on Monday. It's more evidence that it's open season on foreigners in red states, even ones that are US citizens. #NAIABall broughton.substack.com/p/civil-righ...

Trump slammed for demolishing White House before Canadians could burn it down again

WASHINGTON D.C. - US President Donald Trump's planned White House ballroom, requiring the complete demolition of the historic East Wing, is being criticized by Canadians who will now never get to light the building on fire for a second time since the War of 1812.

Josh Naylor and Matt Brash, Canadians who play for the Mariners, are giving thanks. Naylor made an awesome defensive play and went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run.

In the midst of everything going on right now, it should not be overlooked that the government of #Cuba is sending 25,000 troops to Russia, to kill Ukrainians.

Cuba's government is sending troops to Russia to kill Ukrainians. I don't care who they are in solidarity with.

Note the bass player, Chas Chandler. After the Animals broke up, he stopped performing, and became the manager for Jimi Hendrix. Took him to England, hooked him up with the other two members of the Experience, got him a recording contract.
