Interview with yours truly on my recently published book on Carlos Santana...
It's spelled versus.
Finally, after more than a year of delays, my book on Carlos Santana, "Love, Devotion, Surrender: The Illustrated Story of His Music Journey," is set for publication on May 27 via Insight Editions. Pre-orders are available now from your favorite bookseller.
Trump, Musk, Johnson, etc., think there was no wrongdoing, so why would he resign? In the GOP world, this kind of stupidity is a feature, not a bug.
They think it's hilarious. Of course they do.

A tiny glimmer of hope. Watch the video--it's inspiring. And this is WYOMING!
He's so out of touch. We are definitely there now. Does he want to wait for tanks to roll down the streets?

I'd like to know who the 6% are that will still buy one of his Swastikars.
It already is in my house.
Transgender mice! Trump outed them last night! Next thing you know they're gonna be using whatever bathroom they want and playing sports with the wrong team.
Oh, he got it wrong? It's transgenic, not transgender?
Never mind.
Sadly, another death in the rock world has been reported. The last survivng member of Badfinger, known for such hits as "No Matter What" and "Day After Day," has died at age 77.

Still don't believe that Trump is a Russian asset? You've got your proof now.
I despise bullies.

If Bezos is all about "personal liberties," can we assume that there will be many WaPo op-eds focusing on trans rights and a woman's right to choose?
(Don't be silly. Of course we can't.)
They're gonna put me in the movies. They're gonna make a big star outta me!
Not really but, would you believe a live streaming show? A 1-hour interview with yours truly.
Check it out--this Thursday (2-27) at 7 PM Eastern, streaming live on YouTube on the Hoboben Historical Museum's channel.
U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.
I really like this senator from CT and I'm keeping my eye on him for 2028. Yes, it would be another white guy looking to be president, but he's one of too few Democrats who are really speaking to the Trump disaster.
Just the fact that we now have "leadership" that considers diversity, equity and inclusion to be so toxic that they must be eradicated, and that major corporations and organizations comply with this insanity without a fight, should tell you everything you know about the state of the country.
OK then, why in the world would I join Truth Social?
Is that a trick question?
Apparently this post is real. It's absolutely tragic. Imagine the next Kennedy Center Honors--Ted Nugent! Kid Rock! Alex Jones! Jon Voight! Vlad Putin! Melania, Ivanka, Eric and Don Jr.! Real Americans!
You missed my point, that there are many younger bands that also deserve the prize, and yet the Grammys went to two bands that began in the early '60s. The Beatles are my favorite band of all time, and the Stones come close. But if that is all that rock has to offer in 2025, it's over.
The Beatles and the Rolling Stones both won Grammys tonight. Is that the Recording Academy's not-so-subtle way of declaring that rock is truly dead?
