Nikki Haley, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, was not pleased by a humorous sketch (video below) that featured a number of big stars reading from Michael Wolff&#8217;s book <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2CyAzRr\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fire and Fury<\/a><\/strong>. The book caused a stir by revealing some of the inside dirt at Donald Trump&#8217;s White House. That political comedy was too much for Haley who tweeted:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I have always loved the Grammys but to have artists read the Fire and Fury book killed it. Don\u2019t ruin great music with trash. Some of us love music without the politics thrown in it.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Archive: Ambassador Nikki Haley (@AmbNikkiHaley) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AmbNikkiHaley\/status\/957813664207245313?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 29, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Is she friggin&#8217; kidding? Music and politics are hardly a new combination. In fact, the social condition has been the subject of music compositions for centuries. And particularly with regard to contemporary music, political themes have inspired some of the greatest music and artists of all time. If Haley were to have her way, the artists whose music was fiercely political that she would do away with would include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rage Against the Machine<\/li>\n<li>Eminem<\/li>\n<li>The Clash<\/li>\n<li>James Brown<\/li>\n<li>U2<\/li>\n<li>Crosby, Stills &#038; Nash<\/li>\n<li>Neil Young<\/li>\n<li>Public Enemy<\/li>\n<li>Dead Kennedys<\/li>\n<li>Green Day<\/li>\n<li>Frank Zappa<\/li>\n<li>Marvin Gaye<\/li>\n<li>Bruce Springsteen<\/li>\n<li>The Beatles<\/li>\n<li>Bob Marley<\/li>\n<li>The Sex Pistols<\/li>\n<li>Bob Dylan<\/li>\n<li>Kendrick Lamar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And that&#8217;s not nearly a complete list. Haley&#8217;s ignorance of the importance of expressing real life issues in the musical arts is really just her own aversion to free thought and creativity. She never complained when her idiot boss, Donald Trump, attacked Jay-Z, John Legend, Cher, Neil Young, Snoop Dogg, or the cast of Hamilton.<\/p>\n<p>But read a few lines from a book critical of Trump for a comedy sketch and Haley is outraged. And another thing that makes her whining absurd is that the bit didn&#8217;t have any music in it. So how could any music have been <em>&#8220;ruined&#8221;<\/em> by this  brief segment? The truth is that Trump&#8217;s night was ruined by some some artists making fun of him, which he richly deserves. And Haley had to defend her crybaby master&#8217;s ego. It&#8217;s just plain pathetic, but so very typical.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-video\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">On the hunt for a GRAMMY Award of his own, James Corden auditions celebrities for the spoken word version of Michael Wolff&#39;s &quot;Fire and Fury.&quot; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SjTobAbv2N\">pic.twitter.com\/SjTobAbv2N<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; JAMES IS HOSTING THE GRAMMYS TONIGHT (@latelateshow) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/latelateshow\/status\/957811739558494209?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 29, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 60th Annual Grammy Awards show aired Sunday night with the customary pomp and circumstance that accompanies these galas.
