DL Open Thread: Weds., June 24, 2020

Only Two Massive Indoor Events Since US Pandemic Started–Both Trump Rallies.  With a huge surge in cases in Arizona coupled with the utter irresponsibility of his rally, I think he’s clinched Arizona for Biden. He now only speaks to his shrinking base.  This NYTimes/Siena poll spells deep doo-doo for Le Grand Orange.

Prosecutor: DOJ Intervened To Cut Roger Stone A Break On Sentencing.  It is a reflection of the complete and utter corruption of this administration that this is viewed as business as usual instead of the impeachable offense that it is.

Memo To Sen. Nicole Poore: STFU.  Just consider the irony of this quote:

“Every single person in this General Assembly swore an oath to make sure that we always place the public’s interest above any of our special or personal interests,” Majority Leader Nicole Poore, a New Castle Democrat, said.

Thus said the ethically-bankrupt senator who parlayed her senate win into a lucrative job as the Director of the utterly-useless Jobs For Delaware Graduates. Nobody, except perhaps her PAL Val Longhurst, has made more of a mockery of that oath than Nicole ‘No Longer’ Poore.  You can find out why Poore is so upset if you just proceed to page 6 of the Grant-In-Aid bill.  Check out line 6:

  1.  Jobs for Delaware Graduates: $1,395,197

You want more?  How about lines 28 and 29 on page 7:

  1. Police Athletic League of Delaware:  $183,600
  2. Police Athletic League of Wilmington:  $153,269

If I were a Republican senator, I swear I’d introduce an amendment striking these items from the bill, and I would cite Poore’s own words in doing so.  Let everybody vote on that.

With Coronavirus Rising, What Better Time To Cut Testing Sites?  COVID-19 cases are skyrocketing.  A 40% rise in the past two weeks.  We’re also inching back towards 1000 deaths daily. 833 yesterday. The newest hot spots: Two more counties on the Florida panhandle, Leon County, home of Tallahassee and Calhoun County; Columbiana County, OH, which went yu-u-u-ge for Trump; Guadalupe County, TX; Etowah County, AL, home of Gadsden; and Dyer County, TN.

What Trump And George H. W. Bush Have In Common.  You may remember that Bush is the last incumbent President to lose his reelection bid.  Interesting read.

House To Vote On Budget Bill Today.  Also, a Consent Agenda will be considered.  The Senate will be back in session tomorrow.
