Trump's Second Term

I also saw reports that people heard the UK National Anthem being played, though it was apparently "My Country, 'Tis of Thee", which shares the same tune.

Or the Queens funeral with the Navy pulling the coffin mounted on a field gun.

Following up on this -

JUST THE FACTS: THE VANCE BOELTER CASE

The motive appears outlined in a manifesto found in his vehicle. An official confirmed the document "names prominent abortion rights supporters in Minnesota, including many Democratic lawmakers who support abortion rights" (The Independent). This list of nearly 70 names allegedly included Democrats from both Minnesota and Wisconsin (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel). His ideology was not entirely private. In a 2023 sermon, Boelter preached, “They don't know abortion is wrong, many churches”(Tess Owen, Tim Marchman & Leah Feiger).This conviction was echoed by his friend, who confirmed Boelter was a "strong supporter" of Donald Trump and that regarding abortion, “He was a Christian. He thought it was murder”(Felicity Dachel; Andy Mannix). His public social media profile "liked" the Alliance Defending Freedom, a legal group known for its hardline stances against abortion and LGBTQ rights, a community he railed against in a sermon, stating, “The enemy has gotten so far into their mind and their soul” (Tess Owen, Tim Marchman & Leah Feiger; Isabelle Chapman, et al.). Before the attack, a final, ominous text: "May be dead shortly, so I just want to let you know I love you guys both and I wish it hadn’t gone this way" (Harvey Geh).

The murder was motivated by right-wing politics, in short. In a way, I almost pity him for falling for that unreasonable politically motivated right-wing fantasy narrative. He was a byproduct of the larger problem of right-wing forces sabotaging the US in pursuit of power over the US. In a more reasonable world, they should be held to account for the evils that they've wrought in the pursuit of doing more evil.

I'm thinking the same thing - in fact the idea of putting any Fogerty song in there seems like a subversion - but we are dealing with an administration which is delusively stupid to an unprecedented degree, so what we count as obvious may not be to them. But either way, the result is a monument to their cluelessness.
 
The Fortunate Son thing reminds me of when Trump's 2016 campaign used Pink Floyd's The Wall, not realizing that the album is about mental illnesses and isolation. They should have just gone straight to Dogs or Pigs (Three Different Ones). At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Trump had a rally where he walked out onto the stage to Fiddle About by The Who.
