** Good Evening,
------------------------------------------------------------
It's Monday, June 18th.

** Immigration
------------------------------------------------------------
President Donald Trump and top administration officials today defended the separation of children from adults at the southern border amid growing outcry over the practice, making clear it would remain in place unless Congress addressed it as part of immigration legislation, as the
Wall Street Journal’s Louise Radnofsky and Natalie Andrews report (https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-administration-defends-family-separation-policy-1529341079?mod=hp_lead_pos1&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=595f697bc0-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_06_18_08_08&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-595f697bc0-145367789) .

President Donald Trump said today he will move to make a new branch of the military focused solely on space, as CNBC reports (https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/18/president-trump-directs-pentagon-defense-department-to-immediately-being-the-process-of-establishing-space-force-as-sixth-military-branch.html?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=595f697bc0-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_06_18_08_08&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-595f697bc0-145367789) .

** China Trade
------------------------------------------------------------
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo today slammed China's trade practices as "predatory economics 101" and said statements by Beijing in recent weeks that it was moving to open its economy were "a joke," as Reuters reports (http://www.businessinsider.com/r-pompeo-says-china-trade-policies-predatory-2018-6?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=595f697bc0-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_06_18_08_08&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-595f697bc0-145367789) .

** Critical Quote
------------------------------------------------------------

** “The denuclearization deal with North Korea is being praised and celebrated all over Asia. They are so happy! Over here, in our country, some people would rather see this historic deal fail than give Trump a win, even if it does save potentially millions & millions of lives!”

The Hold Steady made their presence known with their third studio album, 2006’s “Boys and Girls in America.” Since then they have been held out as one of rock and roll’s last true survivors.

I love the band and I really like how they now take a modern approach to releasing music. One of the really interesting things about the age of streaming music is that it has brought us back to the release of the hit single. There’s really not so much of an album rock scene these days—just ask today’s hip hop royalty, they routinely “drop” singles on Spotify to the delight of their fans.

With The Hold Steady, they’ve taken the approach of releasing songs by twos. Anyone remember 45 records? They were so cool. Owning a smart phone today is like owning a personal jukebox that you can carry in your pocket—if you equip your phone properly with one of the latest great streaming services (I love Spotify.) Tomorrow we’ll discuss The Hold Steady’s current approach to modern musicianship.

But first, let’s go back to 2006, when albums were still thought of as the proper package by which to deliver music. With “Boys and Girls in America,” The Hold Steady launched themselves into national and international orbit with key tracks like “Stuck Between the Stations (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQBEWG5N9rM&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=595f697bc0-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_06_18_08_08&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-595f697bc0-145367789) .”
