I really wish I had been at his 930 show…

had no idea!
But in all honesty 1999 hatch probably would have skipped, would definitely go today if he was still with us

Nothing on set list.fm on the 9:30 date, curious if it was even well attended?

they have a set from the next night

he didn't do Looking for Clues, which would have tied in well with this thread.

I love Palmer…he cut some great records including with the Meters and Little Feat as his band…dude had impeccable taste and was a great interpreter…unfortunately people looking for clues get hung up on Addicted to love video etc

Dude lived an interesting life…lots of crazy rumors about him and princess Di

not sure where this should go but.. i expect only the best and brightest are going to in town for this

heads up, DC: a march to "defeat the mandates" is planned for Jan. 23.

organized by an anti-vax group

I'm sure they'll be tens strong. Easily recognized as the maskless loaves of Wonder Bread asking how to buy a Metro card.

I can't believe it's almost one year has passed since this national disgrace
what is even worse is the GQP's attitude about it in general, lock step, follow the leader almost across the board
Its great that some of the doufus's got some hard time, but the organizers and instigators have yet to face trial

What sucks even more is this has been dragged out to the point where the dems go "well we don't want this to go into the 2022 elections, so we fold"

this was never on my bingo card: Liz Cheney, savior of US democracy

They need to get this shit wrapped up before the midterms since it’s inevitable the GQP will win the house and shutdown the committee.

Sickens me everyday that the party tries to whitewash this when it was probably our country’s darkest day since 9/11. But yeah, I’m digging Liz Cheney’s face turn.

Agree but they will probably wait to release report closer to midterms


Not saying they should…don’t really know


Now New York I just don’t know what they are doing….

I remain pessimistic any of this will amount to anything or move the needle.

The judiciary and legislative branches seem pretty powerless to do much of anything with respect to Trump.

Our republic’s best hope remains that Trump drops dead because otherwise he seems predestined to take over and finish destroying what’s left…. The average American doesn’t seem to care…

I mean in a functioning republic Trump would already be in jail! WTF!

Instead we are reduced to waiting for New York to dig up some weiner charge about his foundation or charity misusing funds? And it takes years?

Guy committed multiple crimes in plain sight….openly….

The fact guy is out enjoying life and setting himself up for 2024 tells us something has already gone very wrong with our republic.

Amidst all this lunacy there isn't enough awareness of how many Capitol Police officers we lost following that event. Super depressing.

The thing is, many rando conservatives on social media dismiss January 6 by saying whatabout  all the "damage and killing" BLM and Antifa did to the our nation's cities for a whole year….

out of 725 rioters charged so far, "Over 325 have been charged with felonies, many for assaulting officers or disrupting the proceedings.  More than 20 have already plead guilty".  these bigger charges are still making their way through the courts, are more complex to prosecute, and will result in longer sentences.  so for the folks saying the DOJ isn't moving fast enough, or being too lenient because all we are seeing are 6-month sentences for misdemeanors… hold tight.

one of the many reasons i loathe trump is that he makes me loathe myself.  i'm generally a hippy, feel-the-love, all-life-is-precious kind of guy and wishing death on someone is inherently against my core values… but trump is the one person who makes me break my own rule.  i truly believe this country be better off without him, and that's a terrible thought to hold IMO.

Don't feel bad.  I'm sure you would have wished Hitler dead as well.

his influence right now on a big swath of Americans in quite insane and very dangerous

if he is gone there is really no one to take that mantel.
lot of idiots trying, but none of them will get respect from the MAGA crowd, they won't follow any of them, not even D Jr or Ivanka

like if they saw Gym J, Devin, Lindsay, Josh, Cruz or any of those top tier guys in one of those hallways on the 6th, I bet they would have tried to contain and embarrass them and quite possible execute them

So merrik had a presser today…

In case you missed it, the DoJ is investigating the leaders, planners, and funders of the coup, and not just the pawns at the Capitol.

so do you guys think anything will happen and and anyone of rank will do time


oh and go get em Karl

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine:

January 6, 2022. What could possibly be the biggest news story on FOX? You guessed it:


Dem state goes into total panic mode, extends mask mandate despite study casting doubt on efficacy
