SEVEN FIVE RADIO

On September 9^th Soundgarden is scheduled to perform at the opening of the Seattle Seahawks game. As much as I love Soundgarden, I feel that Soundgarden should not perform! Lead singer Chris Cornell died in 2017. The band reunited in 2025 when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

Taylor Momsen did the vocals then and on September 9^th. For gigs like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or a tribute concert fine. But not for the Seahawks kickoff. Cornell was iconic and irreplaceable as Jim Morrison and Freddy Mercury. I don’t want Soundgarden go down the road like Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Dolly Parton passed away and President Trump ordered the flags to be raised to half-staff. Now Parton was an American Icon with a career spanning over half a century. She was a household name and her charity was in the tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars! She was an inspiration to millions of people, entertained millions of and loved this nation. But; I feel that flags should not be raised to half-staff. Personally, I feel the flag should only be lowered for the president, vice-president (current or former) military personnel lost, public safety personnel killed in the line of duty or the victims of a tragic event. I’m not disrespecting Parton. People in the entertainment industry have said nothing but good things about Dolly before she passed away. But; she did not raise her right hand to serve.

Wait a minute, back to the goat using the subway… like WTF https://t.co/x7kNLw454e pic.twitter.com/V17w7W2brV

Metro Transit PD in Washington, DC stopped this fine upstanding citizen not because of bringing a goat into the subway system but of a BOLO. A BOLO is Be On the Lookout for a suspect, vehicle or missing person. Well Kyrie Givins had a BOLO from another agency, so the transit cops put the man in custody!

Why the hell does this man have a goat!? How about a job!? You live in the ‘hood and you buy a goat! Priorities! As for the goat in the subway, you can bring in a rabid wolverine, and the cops won’t do anything! Unfortunately the cops are prohibited from doing their job!

New York City has something called the Civilian Complaint Review Board (CCRB). Started by Mayor David Dinkins in 1993 to appease all the cop haters. The board is composed of people appointed by the Mayor, Police Commissioner, Public Advocate and City Council. If a Member of the Service (MoS) received a complaint, back in the day it was a badge of honor. It showed you were doing your job. But now, the CCRB has a member named Amandee Bility that compared police officers to the Ku Klux Klan on social media and showed a police officer kissing a man when talking about January 6^th!

This individual should be removed from the CCRB immediately. And if any MoS was affected by her decision, the appropriate union should file a lawsuit against the CCRB and the city!

On August 4^th, two Albany, NY employees suffered second and third degree burns on more than 30% of their bodies and were airlifted to the Westchester County Medical Center, 130 miles from Albany. So, did Albany Mayor Dorcey Applyrs say in Albany to oversee the investigation and comfort the families? Did she fly down to Valhalla to see her seriously injured co-workers!? No, Mayor Applyrs flew to Martha’s Vinyard to party the very next day!! For an outfit called: Association for Enterprise Opportunity. The AEO is a nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC! So, the AEO flew to Martha’s Vinyard from DC to lobby politicians! There are a number of venues in Washington, DC to host this forum three of which are the Washington Convention Center, the MGM Hotel and Casino at National Harbor and the Gaylord Convention Center! The mayor could have sent someone in her place. Or not go at all!
