"480 Minutes" - No Justice Department
The Injustice Department is attempting to drop its case against a man who pleaded guilty -- twice -- to the charges. There is one federal judge who can put a stop to this madness. The fact that the Attorney General of the United States of America is this corrupt is no longer news (how sad is that?), but it's still a shocking move against the rule of law brought to you by the rule of law party.
An unarmed black man jogging in Georgia was shot and killed by a former police officer and his son months ago and the murderers are still at large, in public, living their lives. Injustice like this in 2020 is so commonplace that it, too, hardly registers anymore.
Outrage fatigue is real, and not paying too too much attention to politics is healthy in this time of toxic, constant gaslighting, but if we lose sight of just how far through the looking glass this criminal administration and the compromised, corrupt Republican Party has dragged us we will never find our way back.
Today's show will be live-hosted from 9am-5pm Eastern U.S. Time and feature new music by Car Seat Headrest (Seattle, WA, @carseatheadrest), Dope Body (Baltimore, MD, @DopeBody), Fontaines D.C. (Dublin, Ireland, @fontainesdublin), Les Manteez (Agde, France, @lesmanteez), Man Man (Los Angeles, CA, @manmanbandband), Melenas (Pamplona, Spain, @melenasband), Pure X (Austin, TX, @PURE__X), and Squid (Brighton, England, @squidbanduk).
The marathon 8-hour show is followed by 2 hours of uninterrupted music and is then rebroadcast in its entirety beginning at 7 p.m. Friday, 5 a.m. and 3 p.m. Saturday, and one final time at 1 a.m. on Sunday. That is followed by a rebroadcast of a Fuzzy Road radio show at 11 a.m. and then a couple of old 480 Minutes episodes from this week in past years, making for hosted shows all weekend long.
