'It sounded like the future': behind Miles Davis's greatest album On the 50th anniversary of Bitches Brew, one of the contributing musicians and the director of a new documentary share their thoughts on the record

"I took him to this art movie theater downtown to see the film Monterey Pop where Jimi Hendrix ended by squirting lighter fluid on his guitar, setting it on fire. Miles was next to me saying: β€˜Fuuck!’ He was enchanted.”

β€˜Fela Kuti was always in his pants’: legendary music photographer Val Wilmer’s greatest shoots She ate fried chicken with BB King, gave Jimi Hendrix a lift home from a gig and accidentally worked for MI6. The pioneer recalls her favourite subjects – and the ones like Miles Davis she’d rather forget

"She shot the The Beatles in 1963 and found them 'very bright and interesting.' Not long after, she captured Bob Dylan, still just in his 20s, and recalls: 'I think I was the only photographer at the gig.'"

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

Pregnant patients in Minnesota have postponed abortion appointments to avoid ICE Planned Parenthood’s no-show rate has gone up almost 10 percent since the federal government’s Minnesota operation began.

Pregnant immigrants in Minnesota have been postponing their abortions, skipping aftercare, and delaying birth control visits and urgent cancer screening follow-ups to avoid coming in contact with federal immigration agents.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeβ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

After Donations, Trump Administration Revoked Rule Requiring More Nursing Home Staff

More grift.

A nursing home super PAC donated millions to Trump’s campaign.

And, lo and behold, he made it easier for them to cut staffing to pad their profits.

Literally wheeling and dealing on the backs of the elderly and the disabled.

This man’s grift knows no low.

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores.

TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti.

Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret.

Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.

The 2025 shootings of Minnesota legislators were treated far too lightly. Media and the public moved on too fast without grasping the seriousness of assassination. These are life and death issues, not just differences of opinion the USA is working out. The reactionary right is ready to kill.
