Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

60 MINUTES CORRESPONDENT: “Our story was screened 5x and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.” #CBSNewsMAX #BariWeiss

Is it me or is music today just faster?

Songs get made, shared, reacted to, and replaced in the time it used to take a chorus to settle in.

Every now and then one still asks you to sit down, though.

Those are the ones worth keeping.

Earlier this year the people at 60 Minutes urged me to overcome fear and speak on camera about what it's like being a lawyer being targeted by Trump. When I did, they lavished me with praise -- noting I was the only person willing to do it.

Now it is their turn to show courage.

This has to be intimidating for any musician working with a legendarily demanding lead. A perfectionist. After Herbie Hancock [24] plays a bum note, Miles Davis [38] stares him down, aghast — and here he’s stepped out altogether, to stop and observe his band get their shit back together.

Whiplash.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

If you like looking at the weird homes of the rich like I do, then you'll like this. And I haven't gotten a quarter way through.

Correction, he was defensive coordinator of the Oregon Ducks not head coach.
I've been an Oregon Ducks fan since Charlie Waters was their head coach. But James Madison kinda has my heart. I'm pretty darn sure this will be a butt whipping.

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.

The wren is the emblem of the Holly King, who reigns over the period of shortening days and is ritually vanquished by the Robin (representing the Oak King or the new, growing sun) at the Winter Solstice to mark the turning of the year and the return of light.
