Kemp Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Yeah, there's no connection between Trump and Russia. Why did Republicans become Communists? Russia has expanded its list of sanctioned Americans in a tit-for-tat retaliation for the latest curbs imposed by the United States. But what is particularly striking is how much President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia is adopting perceived enemies of former President Donald J. Trump as his own. Among the 500 people singled out for travel and financial restrictions on Friday were Americans seen as adversaries by Mr. Trump, including Letitia James, the state attorney general of New York who has investigated and sued him. Brad Raffensperger, the secretary of state of Georgia who rebuffed Mr. Trump’s pressure to reverse the outcome of the 2020 election, also made the list. And Lt. Michael Byrd, the Capitol Police officer who shot the pro-Trump rioter Ashli Babbitt on Jan. 6, 2021, was another notable name. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at a Springsteen show at the Meadowlands in 1985 when Bruce declared “…blind faith in your leaders can get you killed…”. He was right, of course.

Tom Morello is right near the top of that list, and epic ironic as his band was called "rage against the machine." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a guy like Miami Steve is a believer in free and fair as long as his guy wins, not so much when he doesn’t. In that regard, he’s like many myopic souls in our country, influenced and manipulated by his own bias.

It’s hard to figure out where his rage ended and he was co-opted to become part of the machine. I was reading another post about Dave Matthews recently. He was opining about guns and gun control, mentioned climate change as well. I read about his green initiatives—heavy emphasis on recycling, buying locally sourced goods and buying offsets. It occurred to me the best action he could take in his climate activism would be to stop touring. In spite of his efforts to lessen his impact, his carbon footprint is a massive cluster&$@$. He’s enormously wealthy, what’s the point when the future of the planet is in peril? Regardless, he pushes on. People are complicated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should move past “sides”, Miami Tibs, it binds you to your limitations. The facts are clear, history shows us what took place up to and beyond 2016. There was no acceptance of election results, widespread support to question the results of a free and fair elections, and more than a few instances of using the weight and power of the govt to spread propaganda to achieve a goal. You and SVZ just liked that version of election interference. It’s exactly what Bruce meant back when he hadn’t realized that he was on his way to becoming Springsteen Inc and the substantial impact of having the right friends and right people in place meant for a mega-fortune. Btw, can we at least agree a 75 year old rocker wearing a perpetual babushka is sorta weird? I really wonder if he’s cooked his brain over the past few decades. @Chris farley Ironically just listened to Dave Matthews on Sirius speaking of gun violence and greed often seems to drive the results of our discourse. I don’t disagree with him here, but had to chuckle at how abjectly tone deaf people can be. DMB polluting Mother Earth for profit apparently is only greed-ish, or greed*.
