Ploughshares into swords

If you were paying attention tonight ( and this morning, it was a loooong day) you had the terrifying privilege of watching democracy be stolen. Not gently. Not with the slow drain of disenfranchisement, nor the creeping hand in a ballot box.
It was public. It was on Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, Periscope and god knows where else. It was blatent. It was shameless.
Nevada showed that are our fears are justified. Our anger is justified.

I'm not sure WaPo would let anyone run the story nowadays. It's too hard-hitting on someone other than Trump, who is beefing with Jeff Bezos/WaPo (New reality show? BATTLE OF THE BILLIONAIRES!)

Condor, a Song So Far

Submitted by Bluesee on Sun, 05/15/2016 - 12:58am

Hey, I'm experimenting with both my digital recording box (it's like the cockpit of the space shuttle) and a new "mode" as the hipsters call it.

Anyway, I hope you like it.

Creating a song is an exhilarating experience to me! Like forming a new nation.

This piece is actually just a snippet of a song, it might make part of a larger piece. Someday.

I hope you like.

Hillary as a long-term sleeper agent

One can assume the Rodham problem originates entirely from its bourgeois character. That was apparent from the Goldwater beginnings and her natural-born affinity and allegiance to the US exploiter-groups. She soon realized the strategic advantage of tactically removing herself from reactionary Cold War politics of the 1960's and embedding herself as a 'progressive' upper-class parasite within the Democratic Party.

Nevada Democratic Convention

I'm putting this up not because I know the most, or say it the best, but because when you google Nevada Democratic Convention nothing comes up about the outright thievery being attempted there.
Oh yes. They called the vote before everyone was there and tried to pass it and are now fighting like wild to change the rules and get their cheating passed, giving 400 delegates to Hillary Clinton.
