Today's the big day I guess. The March on Washington for Voting Rights. We're heading in the westerly direction of D.C. But not Southerly. Gonna hit up Dead & Company at Hershey Stadium instead. Last night's show at SPAC in upstate New York was a scorcher. I'm anticipating a bit of a let down tonight.
While I fully support its objective, I just don't think this "rally"... in its current form, is gonna do anything substantive to impact the likes of Joe Manchin and others in the Senate who rely on the filibuster.
After 4 straight years and counting of Trump rallies, I believe the Orange Prolapse has really marginalized our citizenry's impact to unite and make a difference. With all of those dumbshit clown gatherings, Trump has effectively, and unknowingly, truly diluted the entire concept of freedom of assembly and the notion of petitioning the government. It's an angle of his legacy that few journalists are willing to acknowledge.
Due to the tangential nature of the subject matter, I've decided to include this largely forgettable parody in the Big Lie 100.

Never even heard of this song. It was resurrected in 2018 at Wrigley Field in Chicago. An outtake from the Ten that never saw the light of day. Laying dormant for almost 3 decades. And with good reason. My best advice would be to remand it back into dormancy, obscurity, anonymity, whatever.
Please do not share this material with American citizens who value their right to vote.
