YouTube video by Frank Zappa - Topic When The Lie's So Big

Central Scrutinizer with counter programming to the SOTU. Instead we'll listen to FZ's wise words.

When the lie's so big
And the fog gets so thick
And the facts disappear
The republican trick
People tell me when
We'll be rid of these men!

When The Lie is So Big/Broadway The Hard Way/1988

GN BS! 💙

I wouldn’t inconvenience a single Somali-American for thirty seconds to save every single person in the Trump administration.

The Republican Party Has a Nazi Problem How did the GOP become a haven for slogans and ideas straight out of the Third Reich?

If wannabe Nazis now confidently roam the halls of power—and the streets of American cities—it is because Republican leaders have made them feel at home.

ARTICLE: Misery in Antwerp, 1914 I have, on the cutting room floor, a mass of material for the opening weeks of WW1 that did not make it into Ring of Fire.

A weekend read for you. Something that didn’t make it into Ring of Fire: and account of the early part of #WW1 in Belgium

ARTICLE: Pétain, Origins. Several times recently I’ve been asked “what can I read about Pétain,” be it for a First or Second World War viewpoint.

Several times recently I’ve been asked “what can I read about Pétain.” The answer is, in English, not a lot. I have absolutely no intention of one-day writing a biography of this complicated man. What I don’t mind doing, however, is a multi-parter on Substack
