The Time Jimmy Kimmel Tricked People Into Believing Christopher Columbus Is Trump’s Next Supreme Court Pick

#Kimmel, #LieWitnessNews - Christopher Columbus Supreme Court Edition

Columbus Day, a national holiday that most decent-minded people would like effectively canceled and replaced with Indigenous Peoples Day since Christopher Columbus was a genocide-committing monster. But for now it is what it is, so in honor of the most terrible of holidays (right behind April Fool’s Day), Jimmy Kimmel did a Lie Witness News segment in which he asked people on the street what they thought of President Donald Trump’s controversial next Supreme Court pick, wait for it … Christopher Columbus.

Given Trump’s apparent admiration for the guy, if somehow it were possible that the science could mine DNA and bring Columbus back to life to sit on the highest court in the land, you know he’d probably be all in for that. But even Trump surely knows that Christopher Columbus is no longer alive and therefore not eligible for the Supreme Court. A few of the people interviewed on the subject, however, did not!

One young woman, when asked what she thought, said that “it was so long ago in the past and there’s not enough evidence to back it up,” apparently getting Columbus confused for Brett Kavanaugh. Although to her credit, she did later admit that former President Obama’s pick Marco Polo would have done a better job, so we guess that’s progress?

Kate Bush, The Dreaming : A Pitchfork Review

#KateBush # WutheringHeights # Lionheart # NeverforEver #TheDreaming In 1982, Kate Bush’s daring and dense fourth album marked her transformation into a fearless experimental artist who was legible, audibly very queer, and very obviously in love with pop music. In 1978, Kate Bush first hit the UK pop charts with “Wuthering Heights” off her romantic, ambitious progressive pop debut The Kick Inside. That same year, her more confident, somewhat disappointing follow-up Lionheart and 1980’s Never for Ever had a grip of charting singles that further grew her UK success without achieving mega-stardom—she barely cracked into American college rock. What is truly amazing between the first chapter of her career and the new one that began with 1982’s The Dreaming is how consistently Bush avoided the musical world around her, preferring to hone and blend her literary, film, and musical inspirations (Elton John, David Bowie, and Pink Floyd) into the idiosyncratic perfection that was 1985’s Ho
