    2. Yes, as far as she was concerned, that's what the meeting with Trump Jr. was all about. The business about the Russian government providing adverse information on Clinton seems to have been invented out of whole cloth by the people who arranged the meeting. Trump Jr. didn't know that at the time, of course.

    1. The Godmother of Rock and Roll; brought Black gospel music to the attention of the general public, even though doing so met with a lot of disapproval from people in the church. Came out of Chicago, so strongly influenced by the Chicago Blues, or by the same formative influences. "Strange Things are Happening Every Day" is another wonderful example of her work.
