Coons is a bad Senator and Would be a Horrible Secretary of State
Unless Joe Biden is looking for a blood-thirsty Secretary of State who has a longterm lease on a condo in Benjamin Netanyahu’s ass – Coons would be a terrible Secretary of State pick.
Also, Jess Scarane is right. If it is true that Coons is going to be Biden’s pick the head up the State Department he is running for his Senate seat in bad faith.
Recent reports say that Chris Coons is being considered as a Secretary of State nominee.
Delaware voters deserve to know whether Chris Coons will serve out his Senate term before casting their ballots in the September primary election.
I’m calling on Chris Coons to confirm that he will serve out this 6-year Senate term if elected, and refuse a presidential appointment if it’s offered to him.
If he cannot commit to that, then he should drop out of the Senate race. Delawareans have the right to know that their vote matters. They should be confident that the candidate they vote for will actually do the job if elected.
Song of the Day 5/20: Weird Al Yankovic, “Fat”
She spends a lot less time slinging insults than Trump does, but Nancy Pelosi absolutely owned the All-Too-Visible Enemy with a little concern trolling Monday, pointing out that he probably shouldn’t be taking hydroxychloroquine given his age group and “weight group…morbidly obese.” She then dunked on him yesterday, claiming, I didn’t know that he would […]

Pompeo Held Elaborate Dinners For Elites And Prospective Donors–At Taxpayer Expense. He and his wife are seriously corrupt. No wonder he had the IG fired. A must-read.

Man, you get virtually nothin’ for months on end, and then we get a deluge. If this keeps up, I just might go back to a weekly edition–at least through the filing deadline. 1.

Trump Threatens To Permanently Cut WHO Funding. Oh, and to leave the organization. His perpetual search for a scapegoat continues. A relentlessly destructive force. Trump Gives Brand-New Company $354 Mill To Manufacture Drugs Right Here In The Good Ol’ USA. While I generally like the idea of this, it’s Trump, Navarro, and potentially $800-plus million […]
Obese Fox News Fan is a Gullible Twit
Dog bites man. Trump is a dummy with bad judgement. Of course he takes an unproven drug that he heard about on Fox News.
Also, Trump is fat.
“He’s our president, and I would rather he not be taking something that has not been approved by the scientists, especially in his age group and his, shall we say, weight group … morbidly obese,
Song of the Day 5/18: Stevie Nicks, “Stand Back”
This is the theme song for my mandatory two-week quarantine. I play it for anyone who wants to visit, right after I explain to them that for some reason two-thirds of the people working at London Heathrow couldn’t be bothered to wear masks. Though he isn’t credited as co-writer, this song owes its existence to […]

Comorbidity – a.k.a. “Those Fat Losers Were Going to Die Anyway”
Chris Coons’ good buddy, Alex Azar, has a new talking point:
Barack Obama Openly Slams Trump – Because Trump Richly Deserves to Be Slammed
During his commencement speech for graduates of the nation’s historically black colleges and universities, Obama scorched Trump’s incompetence:
The pandemic has “torn back the curtain on the idea that so many of the folks in charge know what they’re doing,” said the former president in a digital commencement speech. “A lot of them aren’t even pretending to be in charge.”
Then in a virtual commencement address to graduating high school seniors across the country Obama called Trump and infantile loser:
“Doing what feels good, what’s convenient, what’s easy, that’s how little kids think,” Obama said. “Unfortunately a lot of so-called grownups, including some with fancy titles, important jobs, still think that way, which is why things are so screwed up.”
Song of the Day 5/17: Linda Ronstadt and Chuck Berry, “Back in the USA”
There’s quite a backstory to this live performance from 1987 in St. Louis, Chuck Berry’s hometown, at the first of two concerts to celebrate his 60th birthday. “Back in the USA” wasn’t one of Berry’s biggest hits. He wrote it in 1959, after returning from an Australian tour, but it made it only to No. […]

Trump’s Troglodytes Head To Rehoboth. Their Constitutional right to infect others is being violated. I can’t emphasize this enough: The President is openly encouraging insurrection and violating the law. It’s only a matter of time before we have another Charlottesville. If natural selection is a ‘thing’, it’s time for it to kick in. Obama: Trump […]
