A tribute to jazz saxophone legend Sonny Rollins
by Denise Oliver Velezby Denise Oliver Velez
Rollins died Monday afternoon at his Woodstock, New York, home at the age of 95 and it behooves me to gather up the tributes to his brilliance and illuminate his impact on the music world.

One more indicator that a market crash will happen sooner than later.
"What’s with the stock market?”, #DailyKos
"the “Buffett Indicator” is up to 225%. That’s not a good thing.”
"The Warren Buffett indicator has just one job: to tell investors whether the stock market is overheating. And right now, at 228%, it’s sounding the alarm.”
"The problem today is that at its current level, the indicator is beyond the 200% threshold that the Oracle of Omaha warned is when investors are 'playing with fire’."
9 reasons the stock market is overvalued:
“1. Irrational Exuberance
2. FOMO Effect
3. Algorithmic Trading
4. Passive Inflows
5. Speculative Leverage
6. Earnings Manipulation
7 Monetary Echoes
8 Tech Monopoly Concentration
9. Hopeful Fed Pivots"

📰 How much evil can Trump’s DOJ manage in a single week? - #DailyKos
❝The stooges at the Department of Justice were busy little beavers this week. Hey, it takes a lot of work to drop charges for a corrupt #DonaldTrump crony, then try to save #Trump’s bacon in one of his personal lawsuits, and to make sure that states never, ever try to stop the flow of assault rifles.❞
"UK Leader Slams Trump as ‘Dangerous and Corrupt Gangster’ in Explosive Parliament Speech”, by Egberto Willies, #DailyKos
Definitely worth listening to and shows what the world thinks of Trump and the US.
"Trump Just Lost a War for America — No One's Done That Since Nixon”, LilBoyBlu, #DailyKos
“[H]ere’s what [Iran has] won:
- Toll keeper on the Strait of Hormuz
- Sanctions-proof oil revenue
- Domestic unity [in Iran against the US/Israel invasion]
- Generational leadership renewal
- Regional military credibility
- Moral high ground [having been attacked during active negotiations]
- [NATO/Western] Coalition fracture"
Note: the above was edited down to it’s main bullet points
TLDR Trump loosed the dogs of war, screwed the pooch, and now gets to eat a dogshit sandwich. He won on day one and lost everything. Iran's regime literally changed — new Supreme Leader, wartime mandate, unified population — and the US is still bombing...
Trump, one more example of Trump’s treason.
Fox News, Kilmeade:
“You think Putin is helping them [Iran]?
The traitor Trump:
"I think [Putin] might be helping [Iran] a little bit,” Trump said during his call-in to Fox News on Friday. “And he probably thinks we're helping Ukraine, right?” … “It’s like, hey, they do it and we do it, in all fairness”.

This is fight that we need to see from our Senators in California. I’m looking at you Schiff and Padilla.
“Fuck Trump”, quoted from a new campaign ad for former Illinois Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton who is running for the Senate in Illinois.
