Delaware Political Weekly: Week Ending October 23, 2025
“We are kings of our bikes. So, we are again really lucky to live in Rehoboth, when we park a car, we have to get back into the car. We can hop on our bikes and our ritual is that we are always biking from our home to L(ewe)s. We do a little bit of […]
The October 18 ‘No Kings’ March Open Thread
Where are you marching? What are you seeing? What are your thoughts and feelings? Celebrity sightings?

1. Dan Cruce Wants You To Know That He Reallyreallyreally Lives In Wilmington: He just resurfaced there after having been invisible since, well, since the Special Election.

Whoa–Blue Delaware Gets Outed–And How
Just-wow. Got this in my e-mailbox this morning. I’m cutting and pasting the entire thing because I couldn’t find it on the Downballot website: I discovered something yesterday that gutted me: A site called Blue Delaware has been stealing our content all year—verbatim, hundreds of words at a time—and publishing it as their own. After […]

A Very Special Bonus Open Thread: Why Do We Need Chris Coons In The United States Senate?
Hmmm, let’s see–because he’s the only Democrat who can win? Uh, no. Because he stands up to the oligarch billionaires and the Pedophile-In-Chief better than anyone else could? Uh, no. Because of his moral compass as evidenced by his blind support for Netanyahu? Uh, no. I could go on, but you get the point. I […]
