Delaware Liberal

DL Open Thread Monday, June 24, 2024

Somebody must have spiked Sen. Chris Coons’ breakfast on Sunday, because he went on Fox News and freaked out the host by pointing out that Trump is a convicted felon. The host’s flustered reaction might put Coons’ status as Fox’s favorite Democrat in question.

Before getting too excited about Coons acting like a Democrat for a change, let’s see how he behaves when Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Congress today. Many Democrats intend to boycott the event. I doubt Coons will join them, but who knows where this new tough-guy persona might lead?

Climate protesters took a break from throwing soup at paintings to break out smoke bombs at Sunday’s PGA golf tournament, raiding the 18th green as the leaders were finishing their round. I applaud this change in tactics on the grounds that golf contributes to global warming a lot more than art does.

Remember when Lauren Boebert’s notoriety forced her to flee her Colorado representative district and run for election in the district next door? At that point it looked like her days in Congress were numbered, but her desperation move now has a good chance of working. The seat next door is open, and eight other candidates are on the primary ballot, so even though Boebert is polling at 40%, she’s far ahead of the rest of the field (this is why I still consider Bethany Hall-Long the favorite in Delaware’s gubernatorial race). The silver lining: Marjorie Taylor Greene, recognizing a rival for Crazy Queen of Congress, hates her guts.

The floor’s yours.
