"480 Minutes" - Throw In The Paper Towels
Because nothing says "sanctity of life" quite like tasking government employees with terrorizing marginalized people instead of directing them to assist in disaster relief: as tropical storm Barry bears down on New Orleans, the Trump Administration is once again threatening to sic ICE on undocumented immigrant families in deportation raids across the country. Those raids were scheduled to include Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, San Francisco, and -- you guessed it -- New Orleans! Will The Dotard fly down there to survey the damage and throw paper towels at the victims? Only time will tell.
Today's
480 Minutes show will feature new songs by
Autogramm (Vancouver, Canada, @autogrammband),
The Black Keys (Akron, OH, @TheBlackKeys),
Honey Radar (Philadelphia, PA, @honeyradar),
The National (Brooklyn, NY via Cincinnati, OH, @TheNational),
