Donnie Jr. Lied Again. A big lie. He’s not as skilled a liar as his pop. Yet. They’re all going down. Firing of Mueller in 3-2-1? Kushner Pushed For Huge Loan From Qatar. Could this be why Trump is putting the screws to Qatar? Blatant conflicts-of-interests everywhere. 666 y’all. Rare Good News For Consumers. Federal […]

Hobby Lobby Busted! For smuggling Iraqi artifacts into America. You may remember Hobby Lobby for refusing to provide contraceptive coverage b/c of the devout religious beliefs of its owners. We now know that said beliefs don’t apply to “Thou Shalt Not Steal”. Here’s Where The Artifacts Were Headed. A ‘Bible Museum’ that Hobby Lobby is […]
Delaware finally has a budget. Now let’s consolidate the schools
Saving money isn’t the only reason consolidating Delaware’s 19 school districts makes sense.
Nicole Poore Rides The Gravy Train At Public’s Expense
Been poring through the Budget and Grants-In-Aid bills. My, uh, patriotic duty. There’s a category under Grants-In-Aid entitled ‘Disabled/Health/Labor’. Total appropriations under this line are $2,890,641. That’s for 40 agencies, if my count is correct. One agency’s take dwarfed what any other agency got. Wanna guess? That’s right. Direct from the Grants-In-Aid bill: Jobs For […]
BREAKING: Delaware Will Not Turn Over Voter Information…
…to Donald Trump’s phony voter fraud commission, which is itself the only fraud being perpetrated here: http://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2017/07/03/delaware-wont-hand-over-voter-roll-data-white-house-commission/447656001/ I really liked Jeff Bullock’s response: “Delaware has a long history of running fair and efficient elections open to all qualified voters. We should not be a part of any effort to turn back the clock on the progress […]
Utterly Pathetic.
Congratulations, Andria. You now have a budget w/o income tax increases, even on Delaware’s wealthiest. Please leave. Yes, the General Assembly has a budget, another smoke and mirrors kick the can down the road budget. A combination of sin tax increases and realty transfer tax increases. Personal income taxes couldn’t be considered b/c Bennett’s no […]
Breaking: JFC Restores Grants-In-Aid Funding
Well, 80% of that funding, according to WDEL. They couldn’t have done that if they didn’t have good reason to believe that some sort of deal has been struck. Meaning that, at least as far as grants-in-aid are concerned, some sort of deal has been struck.

UK Cyber Expert Tells How He Was Drawn Into the Hillary E-Mail Hacks By Peter Smith. Shit’s real, folks, and Smith is only one degree away from collusion with the Trump campaign. Flynn, Bannon, and Conway. Wanna bet that they placed ethics and morality above political expediency? Me neither. Oh, and speaking of those Delaware […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Fri., June 30, 2017
A Long Day’s Journey Into Night Into Day Into…? Hey, don’t look at me. I don’t know what’s gonna happen. Here’s what I know. What happened yesterday was political theatre. One bill would have both restored grants-in-aid cuts and raised taxes. Why? Because the two are intertwined. The BS from Rethuglicans Simpson and Lavelle crying […]
