Ok, so instead of money, how about I give you the opportunity to go to jail for me? Sound good? Trump stiffed his alleged co-conspirators, whose false claims brought in $250 million ____________________ The headline tells the whole story: Wilmington Airport adds shuttle service to remote lot Beebe named among ‘Best Hospitals’ in Delaware by […]
If True, Democratic Senators Really Suck
Ian Millhiser @imillhiser I rarely disagree with Warren, but she’s wrong here. The people who need to act to stop Tuberville’s blockade on military confirmations are Senate DEMOCRATS, who could change the Senate rules at any time to abolish single-senator holds. twitter.com/ewarren/status…
Trump’s Crazy Ass Tweet (or whatever) annotated
“I DIDN’T TAMPER WITH THE ELECTION! [..if I had I would have won. It would have been beautiful tampering. The most beautiful tampering ever.] THOSE [black people] WHO RIGGED & STOLE THE ELECTION WERE THE ONES DOING THE TAMPERING, & THEY ARE THE SLIME THAT SHOULD BE PROSECUTED. [They are as guilty as the central park 5. remember them? Very guilty. Everyone is saying so] I MADE A PERFECT PHONE CALL OF PROTEST. [That would have worked if I wasn’t dealing with all these ‘too honest’ fuckers.] WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE TELL THE FULTON COUNTY GRAND JURY THAT I DID NOT TAMPER WITH THE ELECTION. [My lawyers were supposed to tell them, but I can’t find my lawyer anywhere. Can someone tell my lawyer to call me?] THE PEOPLE THAT TAMPERED WITH IT WERE THE ONES THAT RIGGED IT.”
A Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT on the Presidential Election Fraud which took place in Georgia is almost complete & will be presented by me at a major News Conference at 11:00 A.M. on Monday of next week [as soon as my pillow guy puts the finishing touches on it] in Bedminster, New Jersey. [Home of LIV golf tour, check it out!!] Based on the results of this CONCLUSIVE Report, all charges should be dropped against me & others [this is how trials work, I send in a report and things go away.] – There will be a complete EXONERATION! [That’s the good one. Exoneration.] They never went after those [black people] that Rigged the Election. They only went after those that fought to find the R[N]IGGERS!
I’m pretty excited to see the news Monday based on Trump’s previous promises of definitive proof of election fraud in November 2020, when Giuliani held an infamous press conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping.
DE’s Most Intriguing Legislative Races Of 2024: #8–RD 3
First things first. Sherry Dorsey Walker, who is running for Lt. Governor and is vacating this seat, doesn’t suck. Although she didn’t get much signed into law, she is the sponsor of HS1/HB 191, which passed the House during the Rethug boycott, and could well pass the Senate early in 2024. The bill requires landlords […]

The Fulton County grand jury threw the book at Trump, and the book is “Treason for Dummies.” They also lodged charges against 18 other defendants, most notably Rudy Giuliani, Sydney Powell and the rest of Trump’s collection of crooked lawyers. The dragnet also nailed some of the conspiracy’s fake electors, plus a clutch of shitbags […]
Looks Like Trump (And Perhaps Others) Has Been Indicted RIGHT NOW.
In Georgia. Live on TV. It appears that the paperwork has been delivered to the court, and the judge will read the indictments tonight. Papers have just been handed to the judge. Sound is on. Here we go!: Grand Jury has returned 10 indictments. All proposed indictments to the Grand Jury were voted on, and […]
The Occasional Delaware Political Weekly: August 14, 2023
1. Great Challenger Files Against, Wait For It–Bill Bush! I’ve always sensed that Bush was more or less installed in that position by Delaware Way movers and shakers, led by Lonnie George. You’ll recall that Bush was the guy on the Del-Tech board who sunk the career educator the Board had nominated to succeed George. […]

Are conservatives just, well, stupid? Science says yes. Now watch the comments fill up with people determined to demonstrate it. The death toll of the Maui wildfire continues to climb (it stood at 93 as I compiled this, but roughly 1,000 people are unaccounted for). It already is among the half-dozen deadliest wildfires in U.S. […]

“Climate Change Disaster” to Replace “wild fire” “flood” etc. eg. LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) — As the death toll from a CLIMATE CHANGE DISASTER that razed a historic Maui town reached 93, authorities warned Saturday that the effort to find and identify the dead was still in its early stages. It’s already the deadliest U.S. CLIMATE […]
How do we legally commit treason?
That seems to be the question Trump’s “crackpot” lawyers were groping for in the days leading up to Jan 6th. Unlike the founding fathers who were all in on the idea that losing meant losing literally everything – Trump and his lawyers wanted a more gentile treason that could be enforced by use of the […]
Good. Fuck the fuck off then.
