Radio Free California Episode 2415 and some thoughts about where we are now.

 

New music this week from the late Nell Smith, Sub-Radio, Jetstream Pony, Mich harvey, Uncharted Course, My Raining Stars, Liz Stringer, Garbage, Green Day, Bells Larsen, World Order and much more. Enjoy!

I'm going to quickly call out a couple of artists on this week's playlist. First is Canadian Nell Smith, who was killed in October of last year in a car crash. The music I've added is from her first solo album and I'm sad to say is probably all we're going to get. She was only 17 when she died and she had tons of promise. Her full album is worth checking out, and it was released this week. Also this week brings to us new music from Canadian artist Bells Larsen, who had to cancel his US tour because current government policy will not accept his passport because the designation of gender doesn't match what's on his birth certificate. He's trans and is currently unwelcome by this country's present fascist regime.

What a fucked up country this has become.

And before I forget, I've also added a couple of songs from Liz Stringer's new album. It's a damned fine album and worth your time.

Look folks, I am well past the point where I think that judges should start throwing people in prison for contempt of court because obviously this administration has no respect for the rulings of the judicial branch. They're going to keep doing this awful shit until you start throwing them in prison.

Better prisons than the ones they've been throwing people into, you should note, and ours can be pretty fucking terrible.

At what point does it change from rendition to kidnapping? By my count, we are well past that point.

Alas, our current Justice Department doesn't really seem to understand the word "justice". I mean, drawing a cock and balls on the side of a Cybertruck is a hate crime but setting fire to the home of a Jewish Governor and his family, while they are home on the first day of Passover, is not for some reason.

I got into a spirited debate on the internet over people who post that "cruelty is the point". I don't think it is. By this I mean that these people don't believe they are being cruel; they believe they are being righteous.

I'm not talking about self-righteousness, but actual righteousness. They honestly believe that they are doing right, and that those who don't do the same should be punished so hard that they change their tune. That is what they believe they are doing. It can't possibly be cruel, and they cannot be convinced that they are wrong.

It is not a fight that can be won. They will believe even as they fall into the fires of Mount Doom that they are doing the right thing. They can't be changed. They will get even worse. Hell, just today an official for DHS compared the man all the hubbub is about, a Maryland Father with no criminal record of any kind that they have already admitted was deported by mistake, to Osama bin Laden.

They need a solid ass-kicking. That's our job.

Have you heard the tale of the kidnapping of Merwil Gutiérrez? You should. If it doesn't make you sick and angry, then what the fuck are you even doing here?

By the way, not only are we in the midst of a Measles outbreak in the unvaccinated territories of the United States, but Whooping Cough has also made a comeback. 

In other health news, how is it that the new/old guy is so successful at making doctors lie?

Every Haitian immigrant granted parole under the last 3 administrations has been told to self-deport. These people are in the country legally and now they have to leave. How? you should ask. The US has no direct flights to Haiti. Zero.

Have you committed thoughtcrime yet?

The UN held a vote to create an International Day of Hope. Only 5 countries didn't vote Yes, and 4 of those abstained. The only No vote was the United States. So have you lost hope?

Did you know that two of the new/old guy's executives are crimes into themselves? Laws are not meant to single out a specific individual - a premise that has been upheld in court for centuries. Yet two of his more recent screeds (executive orders) have named specific people: Chris Krebs (former head of CISA) and former Homeland Security official Miles Taylor.

I'm not going to dive into the obviously stupid debate on tariffs save to say this, we are turning the economic control of the world over to China. They are strong enough to take the reins. Try getting them back - it could take a century.

Something I note the conspiracy theorists aren't talking about? That on that medical exam published yesterday about the new/old guy's health is that he is CURRENT on all his vaccinations. That would include Mumps, Measles, Whooping Cough and COVID.

I notice that the new/old guy is blaming Ukraine for the ongoing war. That's what rapists do - blame the victim.

State Department employees, have you yet reported your co-workers for not allowing you to put up pro-Christian propaganda at your desk, work area, or anywhere in the office? He you reported you coworkers for not letting you read the Bible aloud during break times (and non-break times)? are they a filthy Jew? Well, have you done your patriotic duty and reported them yet? We're meeting about it next week so get those forms in now!

By the way, when someone says to your face, ""In fact Mr. President, you have 350 million people to liberate. But to liberate 350 million people you have to imprison some." You are supposed to punch that Nazi in the face. But you didn't even mention getting the guy you sent to his prisons illegally back.

I may puke. Here is the EXACT copy:

On Jan. 20, the day of President Donald Trump’s inauguration, Fox News Media placed four people “in complete isolation in upstate New York, with no contact to the outside world — no phones, internet, television, or social media.”

Ninety days later, those four people will come out of their cocoon, but before learning about what happened in the world over the past three months, they have to get through Greg Gutfeld.

I may puke

My wife's side of the family came over on the Mayflower, so they might be safe from deportation. It won't protect me though - we only arrived in the 1870's.

So the university that stands up to the new/old guy is Harvard? Really?!!?

I don't really follow this stuff unless it's NASA, but did we really just send Katy Perry into space?

Chuck Schumer keeps saying that the American People will rise up should things get this bad. Is he not an "American People"? Harry Reed would have punched these people in the dick by now.

I have to wonder if John Lithgow will be booted from the new Harry Potter series under development when JK Rowling discovers that his breakout role was as a trans woman in "The World According to Garp"?

I'm starting to think that the stabilizing influence in Russel Brand's life was Amy Winehouse.

A press release has been issued by the New York Times: The story that JD Vance fucked the College Basketball Trophy are unsubstantiated.

And because I love you, here is a sampling of Liz Stringer:
