Trump To North Korea: ‘We Will Bury You’. At least he didn’t pound his tiny shoe on the big lectern. RNC Is Paying Trump’s Legal Bills. You didn’t expect a billionaire to pony up, did you? The Jimmy Kimmel Test. Can Jimmy Kimmel kill this monstrosity? Let’s hope so. You gotta watch this. Cut ‘Wasteful’ […]
Preamble to the United Nations Charter
The illiterate, ignorant, reckless child in charge of America went the United Nations today to make a speech. Among other things he threatened to kill every human being in North Korea, in the interest of putting “America First.” It is a safe bet that he doesn’t know why the United Nations exists.

Meet The New Health Care Bill. As Bad As The Other Health Care Bills. How bad? This bad. They’re Rethugs. What did you expect? Kollege Kid Karma: Trump Dickwad Tried To Get Classmate Deported. Got his white supremacist ass thrown out of school instead. Has a career path as a Rethug demagogue ahead of him. […]

White House Clusterbleep Over Documents. How many documents are too many/not enough? NYTimes overhears lawyer blabbing at a DC steakhouse. If you’re taking bets, remember that the original Ty Cobb was the dirtiest player in the game. BTW, what’s up with this?: The uncertainty has grown to the point that White House officials privately express […]

NCC Needs Its Pipes Cleaned. Major sewer line at risk. An enema for the people. How Big Business Pushes Obesity In Developing Countries. Door to door, in many cases. Processed foods uber alles.

Fuck it. Let’s Give Amazon Everything
We’ve all joked: A Senate seat, no taxes for 1,000 years, ability to shit out of open windows onto the street, etc. But, if we were seriously going for this, what would a successful package really look like? What does Amazon really want in a Corporate home? Being a tech giant constantly fighting for top […]
Support Delaware United’s Medicaid Buy-In Program Petition
The time is coming where we have to make a choice: Is healthcare a human right, or is it a privilege. If we decide it is a human right, then we must make it so everyone is covered at an affordable rate, for both the consumer and the insurers. Will that include multiple changes in […]

Officials: Amazon Is Delaware’s Powerball Lottery Ticket. With, IMHO, just about as much chance of cashing in. BTW, it’s ‘too early to talk incentives’: The company’s guidance to potential suitors specifically calls on cities and states to detail the types and amounts of incentives they can fork over — even if that means passing new […]

‘Idiot’ Sessions Didn’t Resign. Guess both Trump and Sessions consider Sessions to be a useful idiot. Is It Worth Rebuilding Flooded Communities? Residents in Houston, the Florida Keys, and elsewhere considering best course going forward. Bernie Sanders On Single Payer. Someone not living in the past. Benzene Levels Skyrocket After Harvey. Stop the presses! Valero […]

Bob Marshall Draws First Challenger. Jordan Hines. Pretty impressive resume, although membership in the Monday Club is hardly a qualification. Questions: What does he stand for? Where is he on minimum wage, death penalty (where Marshall, to put it charitably, has been wobbly), willingness to raise taxes to pay for vital programs, etc.? What is […]
Hillary Clinton’s Attacks On Bernie Sanders Are Um, Untrue
Let’s first figure out what she’s complaining about. As near as I can tell, and I’ve read a lot about her book, she claims that Trump would never have called her Crooked Hillary had Bernie not hammered her for accepting obscene fees to speak before her corporate overlords. She makes that claim w/o any supporting […]

Sanders Will Introduce Universal Health Care Bill. 15 D’s On Board. Sanders leads, Hillary whines about him. BTW, I checked. Neither Carper nor Coons are among the 15. Vouchers, anybody? How about phone calls instead? I’ll start. Which reminds me. Carper’s refusal to even consider single payer can be, what are the words I’m looking […]
Hillary Clinton’s Fake Ass Book
On the list of things I don’t need, Clinton’s cloying homage to herself it #1. Cancer is #2.
If you don’t know what is wrong with that… what is REALLY wrong, at the heart of it, then you should not be involved in politics.
