Project 2029?

Buttigieg: We sit in a in a country that's got the wrong number of people on the Supreme Court, possibly the wrong number of representatives in the House of Representatives. And by the way, when you consider the disenfranchisement of the people of DC, we have the wrong number of states in the US

And it leads to a shooting in D.C. by a potential terrorist

Didn’t the FBi pull a lot of personnel from anti terrorism to put them on deportations? Actually the whole security establishment pivoted

Make no mistake, Trump is a white nationalist intent on cleansing America

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

Touche

If one Afghan nationalist shooter means all Afghan nationalists are evil, wait until I tell you about white male shooters.

Pure unadulterated stupidity

Pure logistical and tactical stupidity to send in 500 more guardsmen to bolster 1500 already there. No National Guard units from any other state are needed in any other state. They exist to help their own state when needed. Trump and Hegseth are responsible for the shooting of those guardsmen.

A complete and utter disgrace to the human race, let alone America

“You’re a stupid person” — Trump lashes out at a reporter who presses him on the fact that the suspected DC shooter was actually thoroughly vetted before he was let in the US from Afghanistan

The shooting of the two National Guardsmen is all on Trump

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DLXV--Looking Glass: Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)

 Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming, we're finally on our own, this summer I hear the drumming...I'm (eleven days--yikes) late again....

You could read my introduction paragraph to last week's (at least technically last week's) tune of the week, and it could serve as this week's paragraph.  Huge single from the seventies gets played everywhere.  I will add this about this week's song:  I sincerely doubt there is a seventies pop compilation ever released that doesn't contain it.  Zero.  It is literally the epitome of seventies pop....

Looking Glass formed at Rutgers University in 1969, but the original lineup broke up after graduation.  Lead singer Elliot Lurie and Larry Gonsky recruited two new members and continued the band anew.  They released their first album in 1972 and their second a year later.  In 1974 the band changed its name to Fallen Angels at which time Lurie split, and in 1975 changed their name to Starz. (who would go on to develop a small following and gain some reputation as an influential heavy metal band).  That would also be the last year that the original band would be together until 2003 when Lurie reformed the band with all new musicians.  They continue to play the oldie circuit, and it's my guess it beats the hell out of working in a grocery store.  For their career, Looking Glass released the aforementioned two albums and five singles (they actually had a second hit that reached #33).

"Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" was the first release from their 1972 debut album, the ever so conveniently named Looking Glass.  The single would reach #1 (with a bullet!), while the album peaked at #113.  Look how cool those kids are in the Great White North--#1 there, too.

Fun Fact:  Looking Glass owes a good deal of their big single's success to one Harv Moore, program director at WPCG in Washington, D.C.  He gave the radio release of the song a chance over two days and later said the station's switchboard "lit up like a Christmas tree."  Epic Records quickly released a single and other stations around the country caught on shortly.

From its mellow groove opening (replete with some wondrous doo-doo doo doos), "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" just oozes sticky sweet pop vibes and doesn't let up until it's over.  It tells the story of a waitress named Brandy from a "port on a western bay" (screams San Francisco) who spends her life serving sailors.  Alas, poor Brandy fell in love with one who told her the sea was his life, and she spends her days in love with a man who will never be hers.  Lead singer Lurie lays down some blue-eyed soul, and the band makes some bitchin' and joyous music for its three minutes and six seconds.  While doing my half-assed research, I noticed that the song is full of some nice backing horns--how the hell did I miss that the first million times I heard it?  As with last week's song, this is a wonderful slice of pop pie from the seventies that never gets old, which is probably as big of a testament to its greatness as any words I might write.

Lyric Sheet:  "At night when the bars close down/Brandy walks through a silent town/And loves a man who's not around/She still can hear him say..."

Enjoy:

Justice is served...a sub sandwich

Trump once again showing the world what an idiot he is

I guess he doesn't realize that probably half the people there can tell him, firsthand, how dangerous Afghanistan was and that until you have IEDs in the streets of DC, he should shut the fuck up.
