Delaware

Imagine for a second that you support police reform. You know that a draft bill was finished in February.  You know that, despite numerous requests from numerous supporters, the draft…

Don't worry, the answer is much clearer than Dr. Freud's query about women. It would be an oversimplification to say that the Chamber wants the bad stuff, and wants to…

Posted only when I gather enough facts, rumors, innuendo and snark to justify publishing.  Until the fall. Then it legit becomes weekly. 'Cept when I've got nothing.   I've now…
