DownWithTyranny, DownWithTyranny! - 4 minutes ago
People have been bootlegging the 415 Records catalogue for at least 3 decades. But we finally found a reputable company to do official releases. They started with a *Still Disturbing the Peace* compilation. I just got a copy on Saturday and what a hoot listening to that music again, especially some of the stuff that has never been properly available digitally. Listening to this music recorded in the '70s and '80s put me back into a very different headspace than the one I live in now and then, out of the blue, someone sent me the Biden ad up top-- the one about the Blind Pig. ...

Armenia and Azerbaijan on Monday once again accused each other of launching fresh attacks in the conflict over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh — despite a new cease-fire. A three-week halt to fighting was supposed to have come into force at midnight Sunday. It was the second atte...

Why America’s Farmers Won’t Abandon Donald Trump

*Wendong Zhang, Minghao Li* *Politics, Americas* While the economic costs have been steep, Trump has found a way to make it up to farmers: record subsidies. U.S. farmers have suffered a lot in the past few years: The trade war with China, natural disasters and the COVID-19 pandemic have all resulted in substantial losses for many producers. Farmers overwhelmingly supported Donald Trump in 2016 and remain critical to his reelection in many swing states such as Iowa and Minnesota. But given the impact of all that’s happened, will they stick with the president in the November elect...
