Weekend Music Thread – Wag the Dog

As the news is breaking that Donald Trump was likely criminally extorting the president of Ukraine to get him to damage his possible opponent in the 2020 election, Trump announced that he’s sending American troops and weapons to Saudi Arabia.

The corruption and lawbreaking of Trump and his cronies is bad enough but the possibility that he could dishonestly start a war to distract from all the criminal investigations into him is worthy of concern.

So to remind folks of the “wag the dog” scenario, where a president starts a bogus war to boost his re-election chances, this weekend’s music theme is about dogs that wag, cats that purr, American eagles that fly and songs about any animals.

Now it’s your turn to let loose the animal in your music!
