                It Sure Looks Like Trump Just Killed His Own Budget Bill
                Donald Trump spent his morning urging Republicans to fall in line. It doesnโt seem to have worked.
            
        
    
    
            Ask yourselves about how pathetic and weak Representative Mike Johnson and his sycophantic caucus have to be to be intimidated by the orange buffoon. Stand the f up (youโll be voted out anyway). #politics, #musicbusiness #SpeakerJohnson

            How ironic to have oppressed Russian music protest artists, โPussy Riot,โ admonishing us to not be complacent in this era of American instability. Weโre inspired by them & grateful for their bravery, sacrifices & leadership.

                Music and Politics Come Together for a Major Course Correction for Both (and to Obliterate the Blatant Pursuit of American Kleptocracy)
            
        
    
    
            There is speculation that this essay might be one of the first opinion pieces, heralded as a must-read, that was sacrificed by Jeff Bezosโ new Washington Post Editorial policy.

                What musicians did after an executive order on DEI led to the cancellation of U.S. Marine Band collaboration
                After an executive order ending DEI initiatives, the U.S. Marine Band canceled a concert featuring young musicians of color. Veterans stepped in to mentor the aspiring musicians.
            
        
    
    
            This should resonate with all who challenge Trump's mindless assault on America. Music artists and songwriters have a responsibility that transcends ephemeral benefit concerts.
