Michael Moore: 10 Things They Won’t Tell You About the Flint Water Tragedy, But I Will

Wow. Some of the facts in Flint are beyond comprehension. Flint is indicative of decisions made daily in many of our cities around the country. And THIS is the end result of our corrupt political system, where decisions that affect our everyday lives are made by politicians who are in the pocket of big money and business…which is like most of them.

If you are not voting for Bernie, you are probably owned by them too. Or you’re planning to vote for Trump… Which means you really should be voting for Bernie, you’re just too angry and hateful to see the forest for the trees. If you’re thinking Hillary, please think again. She is the most connected tool in the business-as-usual DC machine.

We all deserve an education, healthcare and basic security, and THAT must come before profits of big business. And it must mean ALL of us, of every race and creed.

Tom Constanten’s Final Grateful Dead Show In 1970

For your Saturday evening listening pleasure…

Former Grateful Dead keyboardist Tom Constanten made his final appearance as an official member of the band on this date in 1970. The now infamous night is notorious for not only being the TC’s last gig, but it was also the night the band was arrested in New Orleans following their show at The Warehouse – the events of which would be retold as part of the “busted down on Bourbon Street” lyrics in “Truckin.’”
