"Music is the only thing that spans across all ethnic groups and all languages. Music is the only thing that awakens the dead man and charms the savage beast. Without it, this would be a hell of a world." Happy Birthday Lee Morgan born July 10, 1938

Kids running from tear gas, crying on the phone because their mother was just taken from the fields. Trump calls me “Newscum” — but he’s the real scum.

Sadly it looks like our drummer has been denied entry into Canada. Though I believe this is a mistake it won't be sorted out til after the festival is over. We will just do stripped down version of our set without drums. But it does bring up another point. Camper Van

🚨BREAKING: Cal State LA just moved classes online and let faculty work remotely, not for a storm, not for COVID, but because ICE is in the area. Let that sink in, an entire university is treating immigration enforcement like a public health crisis. A country built by

🚨OUTRAGEOUS: Trump just said he won’t deal with Brazil because of how they treated their former president Jair Bolsonaro - who he called a “very honest person.” Nothing gets Trump more heated than seeing political leaders pay a price for trying to be a king and staging a coup.

With Trump's ICE Gestapo, we are witnessing the Nazification of America. What these fucking Nazis are doing has very little to do with immigration. It's about a fascist authoritarian regime slowly undoing democracy and the rule of law by terrorizing a fearful American populace.

Trump in Texas where 100+ just died in floods: "I was really saved by somebody very special *points up*" KIDS DIED!!!!

The floods ripped through Texas on July 4. On July 5, FEMA received 3000 calls from survivors. 1% were unanswered. That night, Trump/Noem fired the people who answer the calls. On July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls. 65% unanswered. July 7: 85%. Sick. nytimes.com/2025/07/11/cli…

She fired the call center workers DURING THE EMERGENCY! Unbelievable.

As Neil deleted this and then posted almost the exact same tweet, without the errors and insult, I thought I'd let you see the original once more. BTW, this came out of his risible claim that the UK annual EU fee was £20bn pa (it was c.£8.5bn) Neil's not very bright.
