Last night on Saturday Night Live, there was that rare moment when a performer chose to give voice to the 200 million or so of us Americans who, for over two years, have been in a rage that the Supreme Leader in America (aka, the “Supreme Court,” that group of 5 or 6 religious right-wing nutters who rule over what women can and cannot do with their bodies in this country), overturned Roe v. Wade. 

The great Stevie Nicks, in her own rage over this injustice, sang for the first time live on national television her new song about those who have committed this atrocity against women. It’s called “The Lighthouse” — and my jaw dropped as she belted out one fiercely brutal lyric after another aimed squarely at the Court, at Trump, at MAGA Nation — and imploring all women to take a stand, to fight back now, it’s not too late. 

Charli XCX walked out ointo the stage wearing a wedding veil. The wedding attire conjured Madonna’s “Like A Virgin” for a second. Queen Brat then said, “Columbus, Ohio. Will You Marry Me?”

During the evening. Charli kept an intimate dialogue during stage banter as if every individual in the packed arena were Charli’s kindred spirit who understood with the deepest emotional connection.

Charli XCX rotated sets with Australian pop singer Troy Sitivan. Charli took the stage with Brit wave rapper-singer ShyGirl. Charli intertwined a marriage proposal for our city while performing 365’s Remix.

One of my hobbies before Saturday’s show was finding Chali XCX rap songs. Everyone I knew cracked up that Charli XCX recorded with Ed Banger’s Uffie. Uffie, and Balam ACAB’s involvement with Charli XCX sorta changed a perception…

Should Charli XCX be a Taylor Swift/Britney Spears star or someone who didn’t quit once Daft Punk and Justice fans couldn’t use Kanye West as their pop sensation.

Ed Banger Records might be Kanye’s political stances biggest casualty.

Leonard Peltier is almost 80 years old. He’s a Native activist in the American Indian Movement (AIM), a citizen of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians, and is now serving his 49th year of incarceration, making him the longest-serving political prisoner in U.S. history.  

Introduction
This post offers eleven reasons to vote against Trump/Vance in the November
presidential election. The reader may think of more reasons. It will take a large
vote for Harris/Walz to accomplish this goal and thus end Trump’s dominating
influence on the Republican Party and US politics. It is a truly epical fight about
democracy vs fascism.
