#NowPlaying another great punk LP, this one is from 2018, the self-titled debut record 'Color TV' by Minnesota's COLOR TV. There's great hooky guitar lines all over this one.

Taras Kachka believes “creative solutions” will overcome Hungary’s opposition to Kyiv’s joining the EU.

“Firing people until he finds someone who will bend the law to carry out his revenge has been the President’s pattern — and it’s illegal,” Lowell continued. “Punishing this prosecutor, a Trump appointee, for doing his job sends a clear and chilling message that anyone who dares uphold the law over politics will face the same fate.”

After my initial disappointment, I think European leaders are right we at least succeeded in funding Ukraine for two years, but the optics are bad, Putin will interpret this as weakness which increases the likelihood of a longer and broader war in Europe. Buckle up, this is far from over.
