Questions for Taschner – Will the DSEA investigate who has it out for the DSEA?

With Matthews stepping down for the good of the DSEA, will the DSEA do the right thing? There is still a genuine news story hiding in plan sight. Piece of shit stenographer, Cris Barrish is protecting a person or group willing to go to great lengths to attack the DSEA and influence the direction of public education through the use of character assassination. Even today other "media" outlets are playing along allowing the anonymity of the "source" to stand. Will Jeff Taschner join the conspiracy of silence and allow bygones to be bygones, or will there be in investigation?

Who decided it was time to take Matthews out, and what specifically are they trying to deflect interest away from?

That piece of stenography filed by Cris Barrish was dictated to him by someone with  some larger goal in mind.   It was a hatchet job, but Barrish was just the witless trigger man in the operation. The person who put the hit on Mike is the one I'm curious about. Who decided it was time to take Matthews out, and what specifically are they trying to deflect interest away from? Dave Burris:  He is a shadowy Republican operative type, and he is certainly familiar with Mike's early work. But I doubt it.  Burris really isn't this type of a-hole.  He hates unions and has wrongheaded political ideas, but my sense is that he is a decent person.  I could be wrong about that.  It has been a while since we've had any contact.   David Andersen:  If the horrible assholes...

Who is going to primary John Carney?

At this point, with the Democratic Party in a state of flux as new members rush into replace a moribund old guard, it is a given that Carney is going to face a primary. He looks weak, and he hasn't won any dedicated supporters from within the party to forestall an insider's attempt. And he sure as hell hasn't impressed anyone outside of the party. So who will it be?

Thanks Hillary!

It is times like these when I feel really sick about the fact that the Democrats nominated an unpopular, deeply flawed candidate to take on the publicity savvy carnival barker.

I agree with Donald Trump Jr. – Fuck Joe Manchin

No sooner had Joe Manchin announced that he would be voting for Brett Kavanaugh, Donald Trump Jr. trolled him with this tweet
A real profile in courage from Lyin’ liberal @JoeManchinWV. Waited until Kavanugh had enough votes secured before he announced his support. I bet he had another press release ready to go if Collins went the other way. 

West Virginia - Vote for champion @MorriseyWV!

...and he is right. Manchin deserves all the scorn Trump Jr (and the voters of West Virginia) can heap on him. When Democrats give voters the choice between a real Republican and a fake Republican the only reasonable choice for Republicans is to vote for the real Republican. Similarly, the only reasonable choice for Democrats is to not vote. When Democrats vote for collaborationist lackeys like Manchin who support the GOP in their ongoing criminal and anti-American activities, all they are doing is weakening the efforts of Democrats who are trying to oppose the GOP in their ongoing criminal and anti-American activities. Bottom line - Fuck Joe Manchin.
