Neil Young and Crazy Horse perform "Down By the River" live at the Farm Aid concert in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 18, 1994. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

Supreme Court Blocks House Democrats from Mueller Grand Jury Material
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Wednesday temporarily prevented the House of Representatives from obtaining secret grand jury testimony from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
The court’s unsigned order granted the Trump administration’s request to keep previously undisclosed details from the investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election out of the hands of Democratic lawmakers, at least until early summer.
The court will decide then whether to extend its hold and schedule the case for arguments in the fall. If it does, it’s likely the administration will be able to put off the release of any materials until after Election Day. Arguments themselves might not even take place before Americans decide whether to give President Donald Trump a second term.
For justices eager to avoid a definitive ruling, the delay could mean never having to decide the case, if either Trump loses or Republicans regain control of the House next year. It’s hard to imagine the Biden administration would object to turning over the Mueller documents or House Republicans would continue to press for them.
The federal appeals court in Washington ruled in March that the documents should be turned over because the House Judiciary Committee’s need for the material in its investigation of Trump outweighed the Justice Department’s interests in keeping the testimony secret.

Contact Tracing 'Cedes Enormous Power' to Tech Giants - Journalist
NHS administrators have warned that unless an effective contact tracing programme is put in place, a second wave of coronavirus infections could hit the UK. The British government has been trialling contact tracing apps in the Isle of Wight, whilst pledging to roll out the technology in the rest of the country by June.
Contact tracing has been used successfully in countries like Australia, New Zealand and South Korea, who have managed to control the spread of the coronavirus, but fears remain that the apps could put the user’s data at risk.
Journalist David Lindsay reflects on chances for the UK to benefit from implementing this technology.
Sputnik: Will the British government be able to implement a coronavirus contact tracing programme in the UK by June?
David Lindsay: It is a feasible proposal but it will not be in place by June, because the people who are trying to do it have a history of failure in this area.
There are some problems with contact tracing; this does cede enormous power to whoever controls the technology, and there is very serious talk, in fact, it is practically certain that this data will be handed over to all these giant tech companies, with their connections to the security apparatus of the United States in particular, but also to other countries, including this one.
These dangers are very real, and in any case; this government frankly has a history of incompetence in its handling of this whole business.

Justice Dept. Unit That Prosecuted Roger Stone Is Reorganized
WASHINGTON — Law enforcement officials have restructured the division of federal prosecutors that oversaw the case against President Trump’s longtime friend Roger J. Stone Jr., according to people briefed on the matter, the latest upheaval in an office at the center of the recent political turmoil at the Justice Department.
The reorganization of most of the criminal division of the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington was implemented last week, capping a tumultuous 15-week stint by Timothy Shea, a longtime adviser to Attorney General William P. Barr, as the interim U.S. attorney in Washington. Mr. Shea’s tenure abruptly ended this week when Mr. Barr named him the acting head of the Drug Enforcement Administration.
The White House said Monday that Mr. Trump intended to nominate Justin E. Herdman, the U.S. attorney in Cleveland, to replace Mr. Shea.

Must Watch Video of Tucker Carlson Calling Out “Total Phony” Anti-Trump GOP Leaders Goes Viral
In the viral video below, Tucker Carlson calls out “total phonies” in the Republican Party who did nothing to stop the Russia hoax even though they had both the Senate and the House.
The clip is damaging to the leaders in the GOP like Trey Gowdy, Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, and Richard Burr who talked a good game but have done nothing to stop the madness of the effort to destroy President Trump by any means necessary.
Americans should call for the Obama administration to be held accountable for their corruption.
thank God Trewy Gowdy has been exposed , Lindsey graham is just like him it all goes back to the top Mitch McConnell , and Paul Ryan all took part in the attempted take down of Trump. they must be held accountable https://t.co/yWleIsCg6B

Michael Flynn’s Attorney Slams Judge Sullivan: Give us a “judge who can follow the law”
Michael Fynn’s Defense Attorney Sydney Powell appeared with Lou Dobbs to discuss the motion to dismiss the Flynn case and to discuss Judge Sullivan’s outrageous resistance to dismiss. Powell has a steely stare throughout the interview with a tone pf dogged determination to get this case dismissed. She’s had enough of the shenanigans with the rogue judges and dirty cops.
“What I find particularly outrageous now is the failure of the district court to grant the government’s motion to dismiss and full acknowledgment of the fact that exculpatory material was withheld from the defense for all these years. I have no doubt there’s more exculpatory evidence out there. They may want to use that for other cases or other prosecutions, but at the very least our motion to dismiss should be granted and that’s why we filed the petition for writ of mandamus yesterday to ask the DC Circuit to instruct judge Sullivan to grant it or to give us another district court judge who can follow the law.”

MARSOC is getting a new commander, here is what you need to know
The MARSOC (Marine Forces Special Operations Command) Communication Strategy and Operations office has confirmed that current MARSOC Commanding General, Major General Daniel Yoo, will be retiring and relinquishing his command and during a ceremony currently scheduled for June 26, 2020. MajGen Yoo assumed command of MARSOC, headquartered at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, on August 10, 2018.
The Marine Corps Manpower & Reserve Affairs office confirmed with SOFREP that, at this time, incoming MARSOC commanding officer, Major General James Glynn, is scheduled to move in from his current post as Commanding General, Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island and Eastern Recruiting Region. According to Glynn’s official bio, he “served at Headquarters Marine Corps (HQMC)—first as the Military Assistant to the Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps and then as the Director of the Office of U.S. Marine Corps Communication. A native of Albany, New York, his service as a Marine began in 1989 after graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mechanical Engineering.”
Excluding any potential COVID-19-related delays or a last-minute change of plans by Headquarters Marine Corps, the timing of Yoo’s departure is in line with the historical two-year period that commanders spend in charge of the Marine Corps’ elite Special Operations component. However, in Yoo’s case the timing is leading many to question his public silence over supporting three of his own Marine Raiders whom he ordered to be sent to a general court martial for multiple charges related to the death of a defense contractor in Erbil, Kurdistan (Northern Iraq) on New Year’s Eve, 2018.

US military aircraft approaches Russia’s largest airbase in Syria for 2nd time
BEIRUT, LEBANON (1:10 P.M.) – For the second time in a week, a U.S. reconnaissance aircraft has been spotted near the Syrian coastal governorate of Latakia in the eastern Mediterranean.
According to reports, a U.S. Navy P-9A Poseidon aircraft conducted their flight between Cyprus and Syria before returning back to its home base.
The U.S. aircraft was said to have closely approached the Russian military’s Hmeimim Airbase, which is located in the southwestern part of the Latakia Governorate.
Unlike previous encounters in April, the Russian Air Force did not deploy its Su-35 jet to intercept the U.S. aircraft in the eastern part of the Mediterranean region.
The Russian military’s S-400 air defense system is currently active at the Hmeimim Airbase, so it is highly unlikely that they are not tracking these flights.
While it is common for the U.S. aircraft conducted flights in the eastern Mediterranean, it appears that they have increased the frequency of these flights over the last ten days.

Japan investigates Mitsubishi Electric breach amid national security concerns
Japan is investigating a possible breach of sensitive defense contracting data following a cyberattack last year on electronics giant Mitsubishi Electric, officials said Wednesday.
Data likely stolen in the hack, which Mitsubishi disclosed earlier this year, included specifications of hypersonic missile prototypes that Japan is developing, according to a report in Asahi Shimbun, a Japanese newspaper. The Ministry of Defense had sent the specifications to multiple companies, including Mitsubishi, interested in bidding on the missile contract, the report said.
Japanese officials have said the high-velocity missile could be used to protect islands in the East China Sea that are the subject of an ongoing territorial dispute between Japan and China.
