During the Pinochet dictatorship in Chile, underground bands played in tiny venues and distributed their music via bootleg cassettes. Artist Iván Navarro is resuscitating their work via his label, Hueso Records.
It's "the soundtrack to Operation Condor," he says.

Seriously everything, EVERYTHING about the RFK/Nuzzi/LIzza moment is an argument for a newsroom where you pitch stories in front of each other and editors who shield you from your own worst impulses.

Exclusive: President Trump has argued with the architect he handpicked to design a White House ballroom over the size of the project, reflecting a conflict between architectural norms and Trump’s grandiose aesthetic.
Trump wants a bigger White House ballroom. His architect disagrees.
The president and James McCrery had argued in recent weeks over the project’s size, with Trump pushing him to expand the ballroom.

I’m on Episode 3 of the Juan Gabriel doc on Netflix and learning that it took Carlos Salinas de Gortari’s wife to make JuanGa’s Bellas Artes show happen. 😱 But maybe 6 years of unhinged corruption were worth it for this version of “Hasta Que Te Conocí”?
