‘No Trump! No KKK! No Fascist USA!’: The Punk History
It’s a line that stretches all the way back to the early Eighties, when the hardcore group M.D.C. clashed with Nazis in Austin, Texas, so they wrote the song “Born to Die” about it. The track would make its debut recorded performance on the band’s 1982 LP, Millions of Dead Cops. At the time, however, singer Dave Dictor was chanting, “No war, no KKK, no fascist USA.” Armstrong and his bandmates played with M.D.C. in the past, so the lyric has likely stuck with them over the years. … [Read more...] about ‘No Trump!

Robert De Niro, Oscar Isaac, Donald Sutherland & Anne Hathaway Join Cate Blanchett In James Gray’s ‘Armageddon Time:’ Hot Virtual Cannes Package
“Films do intimacy and family relationships very well, even better than the theater, because in the theater your best seat is still 20 feet away from the actor,” Gray said. “In the cinema, the close-up has tremendous power. What I’m after is something really quite moving. My recollection when I think back on that moment, which is 1980 as the time frame of the movie, and what an important year it was in the history of the country and for me personally and how in some ways, I was pretty damn lucky. My parents who were not wealthy at all as a working class family, used all the levers they could, to be able to go to this school. Which simultaneously saved my life, but also awakened me to real racism and anti-Semitism. In some ways, the idea of presenting a story like this within the context of this family, told with great warmth, is sometimes your greatest Trojan Horse, to involve people emotionally that way. And story is a great weapon to be able to deliver … [Read more...] about Robert De Niro, Oscar Isaac, Donald Sutherland & Anne Hathaway Join Cate Blanchett In James Gray’s ‘Armageddon Time:’ Hot Virtual Cannes Package

What 9 GOP Campaign Consultants Really Think About Republicans’ Chances in November
“Every shred of evidence points to a likely ass kicking in the fall.” “Well it’s as bad as it gets right now.” “Right now most campaigns are thanking baby jesus every day the election isn’t held today.” “I’ve got Trump down in Texas. [Republican Senator Steve] Daines down in Montana.” “It’s certainly better than public polling, but it’s not good.” “I told very high ranking people in the Trump Administration that it hasn’t been like this since October of 06” – when President Bush’s numbers were tanking over fallout from the Iraq War, Katrina, and the Mark Foley scandal. But in 2006, Republican candidates could strategically distance themselves from an unpopular president without facing a mutiny within the ranks. That won’t work in 2020, as — though Trump’s numbers are plummeting with some demos — they are solidifying or improving … [Read more...] about What 9 GOP Campaign Consultants Really Think About Republicans’ Chances in November
