Has the U.S. economy, historically, been better under Republican presidents or Democratic presidents?

His name? Bart Starr, Jr. (Yes, the son of THAT Bart Starr.)

In 2018, Trump destroyed the entire village of Mount Pleasant in Racine County, Wisconsin with the Foxconn scam. He leveled people's farms and homes for what turned out to be another one of his grifts. Today, President Biden is doing for Racin County what Trump could not.

This is why Trump and Musk want you focused on made-up cannibalistic satanic child sex-trafficking rings, or supposed crime waves when crime is actually plummeting, or even on the idiotic notion that Joe Biden is on drugs.

Time for a thread about LCD Soundsystem/DFA.
It's 2002. Mainstream dance music is in its "rock dinosaur" moment. Bloated. Formulaic. And naff.

A surprise performance by @remhq last night at their induction into the @SongwritersHOF - Just one song, an acoustic version of "Losing My Religion" - but it was the first time the 4 original members had played together publicly since 2007. More on @CBSMornings

50 years ago, Big Sugar quietly paid three scientists to point the blame for chronic disease at cholesterol and saturated fat.
Millions of Americans died as a result.
Here’s how Big Sugar has been lying to the American population since 1965:

Whether solo or with the Commotions, he has never received the credit he is due. Too arch, too ironic, too well-read, too clever by half, mutter the naysayers - all reasons that make me love him so.
