Head-ON With Robyn Roxanne Kincaid

Without Chicken Bill Barr to kick around this evening, we had no choice but to look outside DC for the inevitable thorns in the side. We found them in Tennestan, in West-by-God Trumpginia, in Texastan. Along the way, some new information about opioids, opiates, and the "war on drugs" we continue to lose so spectacularly.

Did you know we've never charged anyone anything for the HORN? We haven't. For a decade-and-a-half, the community has made it possible for anyone to listen any way they want. It gets a little easier when people shoulder some of the load, at less than fifteen cents per hour of programing. Might you be one of the ones who make this program free to any who want it? If you aren't yet, you can join that merry little band by clicking on this here linky thingy

The Deacons and the Little Ol' Blue-haired ladies in the Fellership Hall Kitchen took the day off to watch Bill Barr-to-Prosecution lie his amphibian posterior right off in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, so religious madness took a backseat to a front row seat to Republican graft, corruption, perfidy, and general crookedness. Bill Barr is a horrible liar when he has to lie off the cuff, and the world saw it on bold display. In this edition of The HORN, we deconstruct it.

The HORN is independent. No corporate masters. No multi-millionaires. Just a brilliant community of heroes for the working day. It exists because the community wills it to exist. You can be part of that determined community. Click these words right here if you'd like to be part of the merry little band that thinks independent media is worth having around as an antidote to the Multi-millionaire ForProfit Media.

Thanks!

A continuation of John Locke's Second Treatise on Civil Government and what was envisioned for our country.

It wouldn't surprise me if there's a list floating around DC and NY of law firms who are next in line to represent the Trump Klan. Heck, you don't even have to win! You just file something idiotic and lose and cash the check. Case in point: Trump, et al. v. Deutsche Bank and Capital One, a desperate attempt by a family of grifters to keep investigators from seeing just how grifty they are. And, mid-program, the NRA's Roulette Wheel of Death stopped on Charlotte, NC, and now two more Americans are dead. Finally, after Mueller got absolutely roasted by Bill Maher, suddenly, today, we get newspaper accounts of how upset Mueller is with Bill Barr. If this was a soap opera, it would've been cancelled for its cheesy plot line. 

The HORN is independent, non-commercial radio. While it would be really cool if we could run it on thotsenprares, we can't. A new month begins and every month means we need the help of the community to survive. Go here to support media that isn't beholden to ad agencies or right-wing corporate executives.

Thanks!

Dr. Obrien revisits John Locke's "Second Treatise of Civil Government Essay," as well as exploring John Madison's thoughts on Consolidation and our government.

The Moran Monday kally-opey (Anderson Cooper pronunciation) is smokin'! Anti-vaxxers lead the list, with plenty of other entrants, deah Lindsey Graham not far behind. The NRA Roulette Wheel of Horror stops on Poway. 

A new month approaches. We lost out on the matching challenge for five new subscribers. Regardless, if you want to help keep non-commercial, ad-free, community-focused radio going, drop by and help us get May off to a good start.

There's a lot of impeachment talk out there, and much of it lacks historical depth or understanding. With the expertise of a lifetime's scholarship, Dr. Bill assays the origins of impeachment, the trial of the bill, and the question of who would preside. With Dr. Bill's help, we better understand the situation as it presently exists.

Hoooooo-weee! A jim dandy Extraordinary Ordinary Roundtable discussion ranging from the Dem candidate field, to how the nomination process will work, what possible pitfalls may lie ahead. Geezer Disgustus Deonstrates his (not) very good brain trying to explain the Mueller Report and then, magician-like, tries to make all the Nazis in Charlottesville disappear. 

Limited-use ideas have a way of not turning out that way. Mueller's too-stoopid-to-prosecute defense gets taken out for a spin. A potential mass-murderer is set for release by a Federal Judge. Barr's DoJ mails in the outrage. Pipe-bomber says Trump was "like a new drug" to him. Then, then . . . the return of our good friend, bon vivant, man with a new heart, but not necessarily a bigger one (it's always been big: size matters), Dan Fisher jumps in for two hours of rollicking free-form conversation! Yay!

The H.O.R.N. exists because the community wills it to exist. We have a kind offer from a longtime underwriter to double the first month's subscriptions of five new $10/month underwriters. It's a big deal. Five new underwriters at this time of the month would make a big difference. Click here if you want to take advantage of a kind and generous offer. 

In which the Deacons sit right down and take a break. And Franklin Graham worries (just like all the Evilgelicals do) about gay folks having sexytime. And Coach Dave takes the show on the road. And Steve "Cantaloupes Nazi" King gets out his pogo stick. And . . . and . . . and . . . because the EVILgelical Gundamentalists ye have always with ye.
