Trump To Announce Supreme Court Nominee This Week. The process makes it very difficult to even reach a vote by Election Day. Meaning, the process must be done away with. There’s no point in pointing out hypocrisy and inconsistency. The rules are whatever Trump and McConnell want. As well as…. David Frum offers a glimmer […]
DL Flashback: ” Q: Is Cathy Cloutier Pro-Choice Or Anti-Choice? A: BOTH!”
I first posted this in October of 2012. In the wake of RBG’s death, the post’s point is even more salient today: Cathy Cloutier will say anything to win the support of certain groups of voters. Even when they are on diametric opposite sides of the same issue: Some things I simply cannot make up. […]
Our RBG Has Died
She tried so hard to make it through to the end of the Trump years. Some of the most salient writing on her passing: Justice Ginsberg’s History Of Striking Dissents. RBG’s Thwarted Vision For America. The Stakes For America. Dems’ Choice: Go Nuclear. Yes. This. Rethugs: It’s All About The Supreme Court Now. Yep, get […]

Trump Thugs Literally Rewrote CDC Covid Guidelines. Then dropped it onto the CDC website. One more independent government agency destroyed. NJ To Approve ‘Millionaire’s Tax’. If they did, we should be able to. The impediment, I suspect?: John Carney, although he might be more receptive to it than Markell was. But I think the new […]
Daily Kos Gives Delaware Progressives The Election Day Love
With a link to my Dave McBride whipping post story. Who knows, maybe that story made a difference in the outcome. Time to revel, kids, we went national!: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2020/9/17/1977969/-Morning-Digest-Progressives-once-again-oust-a-bunch-of-incumbent-lawmakers-this-time-in-Delaware
Cathy Cloutier’s First Lit Piece Is…Strange
Got her first mailer today. Oversized postcard. She’s taken some new pictures. The front of the mailer has this picture and a similar color combination as you see here: https://www.cathycloutier.com/ There’s a banner that says: Connect With Me Today/Vote November 3. At the bottom, it reads: Effective. Resilient. Balanced. Balanced? What does that mean? Nobody […]

Barr Remains Utterly Lawless. Pushes For Sedition Charges Against Protestors. Says He Can Be As Political As He Wants. Feds Stockpiled Munitions To Attack Peaceful DC Protestors. The Trump Administration is a full-blown criminal enterprise. If Biden wins, they should all be RICO’d. Even By ‘Christian’ Conservative Standards, What This Minister Wrote Is Sickening. Genetic […]

Rethugs Recruit Youth For ‘Troll Farm’ Operation. This Charlie Kirk is a threat to democracy. As is Facebook. Alaska Rethugs Pull Last-Minute Dirty Trick As Ballots Go Out. They’re feeling the heat, even in Alaska. Well. That Trump ABC Town Hall Went Well. Allegedly before a crowd of ‘undecided’ voters. Wonder if herd mentality took […]
Now THAT Was A Primary Night!
I’m writing this on very little sleep. My mind churning all night. Here are the results of those mind-churns: Jess Scarane deserves a lot of credit, not just for her run, but for using her campaign as a platform to feature many of the candidates who won last night as she had them join her […]
DL Primary Night Open Thread
If past is prologue, we can look for the first results around 8:30. Of course, with the new voting machines, that may not be the case. We’ll post results here as they come in, and we encourage your feedback. Of all of my dubious predictions, I’m becoming more convinced that Scott Walker will win that […]

Yo, Biden And Harris: Get Your Asses Out To the Pacific Northwest. Have the governors of Cali, Oregon and Washington there. Draw a line in the sand and say that these fires demonstrate that global warming is real, that this is the most urgent problem facing us, that you will reverse every one of Trump’s […]

Sanders Raises Concerns About Biden Campaign. He’s right, of course. Could the Biden campaign at least demonstrate that they’re not taking progressive voters for granted? I have visions of Goldman Sachs execs polishing up their resumes. Bloomberg To Dump $100 Mill In Florida For Biden. Mostly in digital ads in Spanish and English. Wouldn’t hurt […]

Trump Silent On Wildfire Disasters. Hey, Cali, Oregon and Washington don’t matter to Trump. Some good news: there’s been a wind shift in Oregon as the rainy season approaches. BTW, the Dems are no better. Can’t someone, you know, fly out there? US Court Of Appeals Rules Felons Must Pay Fines Before They Can Vote. […]
