DL Open Thread Tuesday June 29th 2021

Filed in National by on June 29, 2021 1 Comment

The last guy had horrible, unpopular ideas.  And yet he got some shit done because he didn’t spend anytime trying to cajole or bargain with any mother-fuckers. Also in today’s open thread – gun violence that happens to other people, giving $19 million in tax money away to a massively wealthy Chinese drug Co., and being maskless was nice while it lasted.

Coons Gushes About Super Secret Bipartisan Caucus Work on Infrastructure Deal as Infrastructure Deal Falls Apart

Filed in National by on June 26, 2021 2 Comments

McConnell put the kibosh on the pared-down to nothing infrastructure deal in real time. No matter. Coons rushed to take credit for saving America. All hail BIPARTISANSHIP!!! All hail the SUPER SECRET BIPARTISAN CAUCUS!

Q: You were a part of the larger group of 20 bipartisan senators who have been meeting on this. Tell us your thoughts about the impact and the import about what we just heard from the president and your colleagues at the White House.

Sen. Coons: Well, Dana, this is a great day for President Biden, for the determined group of ten Democrats and Republicans who you just heard from – from Kyrsten Sinema and Rob Portman, from Joe Manchin and Susan Collins and others who have been hammering away at this for days and days. And now the work begins to build it out, to make sure that beyond the 21 of us who have publicly been supporting it and urging them along, we get more supporters in both caucuses. Over the next eight years, this represents $1.2 trillion in investment and infrastructure. That really is a big deal. And this framework has $[579] billion in new spending. To get an agreement on that on a bipartisan basis took a lot of very hard work.

So I just want to congratulate the folks who were just over at the White House with President Biden. This is a significant accomplishment. Something that should not go unremarked is that the Senate of the United States also just passed in the last hour and a half a bold bipartisan bill on climate change in the agriculture sector. Senator Stabenow and Senator Braun were the leads on this. There are good bipartisan things happening here in the Senate. I do think for us to accomplish most of President Biden’s boldest agenda in the American Jobs Plan and Family Plan, we will still have to proceed by reconciliation – which I support.

But as you just heard, a Republican senator from Louisiana celebrated the White House. This package has $47 billion to do climate resiliency work. It is great to hear Democrats and Republicans legislating together around something as urgent as combatting climate change and as significant as creating great high-paying jobs, building American infrastructure for this century.

Does Kyrsten Sinema have an intellectual disability?

Filed in National by on June 24, 2021 3 Comments

Is “intellectual disability” the correct clinical wording for someone with a very low IQ? Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) defended her opposition to abolishing the 60-vote legislative filibuster in a Washington Post op-ed published Monday night, saying to do so would weaken “democracy’s guardrails.” “My support for retaining the 60-vote threshold is not based on the […]

DL Open Thread Tuesday June 22, 2021 – All Delaware

468 days ago, on March 11th, 2020 the Delaware Division of Public Health announced the state’s first positive case of COVID-19. The case involved a man over the age of 50 who was associated with the University of Delaware.

Only 47% vaccinated, New Castle?  That’s fucking pitiful.

Are Cops the most violent gang in Delaware? Are they at least in the top three most violent?

Honey!  If you are going out can you grab me some coffee from Brew Ha Ha and some felony aggravated menacing?

He isn’t grotesque because he is (appears to be?) 8 months pregnant. He is grotesque because he is a low-life with way too much power over the spineless weaklings in Leg Hall.
