   Hello Everybody,   
      
   Oh what fun it is! Cease and desist order sent to the orange turd   
   by John Fogerty -

   of 'Fortunate Son'

   Musician John Fogerty lashed out at President Trump on Friday and said   
   he is issuing a cease and desist order over the president’s campaign   
   using the famous Creedence Clearwarer Revival song “Fortunate Son” at   
   events.   
      
   “I object to the President using my song, ‘Fortunate Son’ in any   
   way for his campaign. He is using my words and my voice to portray   
   a message that I do not endorse,” the rock icon shared in a statement   
   on Twitter.   
      
   “Therefore, I am issuing a ‘cease and desist’ order. I wrote this song   
   because, as a veteran, I was disgusted that some people were allowed   
   to be excluded from serving our country because they had access to   
   political and financial privilege. I also wrote about wealthy people   
   not paying their fair share of taxes.”   
      
   Fogerty added that “Mr. Trump is a prime example of both of these   
   issues. The fact that Mr. Trump also fans the flames of hatred, racism   
   and fear while rewriting recent history, is even more reason to be   
   troubled by his use of my song."
