The Smoking Sharpie – Day 3

“Who sharpied the poster?” Sharpie-gate! It may be just stupid enough for our shallow, idiotitic DC press corps to obssess over.

And when you add that to the fact that Trump is a fucking asshole who can’t back down on anything (because he thinks the whole shit-covered edifice will come crashing down if he admits one stupid thing). You get a media jackpot.

Here is Sean Hannity is full spaz-out mode:

Biden’s Memory Is As Bad As Trump’s

Filed in National by on September 4, 2019 20 Comments

Fresh off a controversy about jumbling the details of a moving story about a war hero, Uncle Joe showed a more serious lapse yesterday, telling NPR that he came out against the Iraq War “immediately, that moment it started, I came out against the war at that moment.” As NPR’s Asma Khalid pointed out, that’s […]

Biden Gaffe Watch is Nauseating and Dumb

Biden Gaffe Watch is Nauseating and Dumb

As a Delawarean I am appalled by the coverage of the Joe Biden Campaign. Every two-bit reporter in the country is hanging around Biden like lazy clock-watchers just waiting for the less than bon mot to fall in their laps. It’s disgusting. It is as if being the reporter that catches Biden’s final foul ball gets a Pulitzer.

And, BTW, if Gaffe’s are such a great measure of mental health HOW THE FUCK IS TRUMP PRESIDENT?

No, it isn’t Biden’s gaffes reporters need to report on, it is his terrible politics. It is the fact

DE Min Wage by the numbers

Filed in National by on September 3, 2019 3 Comments

The minimum wage in Delaware is set to increase on October 1, 2019 to a measly $9.25 an hour. Delaware unjustly now has a multi-tiered minimum wage system including a youth and training rate. Both of these rates legalize wage theft by allowing employers to pay $.50 an hour below the State’s minimum wage to […]

Does Jerry Falwell Jr Have a Cuckold Fetish, and Did That Fetish Get Trump Elected?

Does Jerry Falwell Jr Have a Cuckold Fetish, and Did That Fetish Get Trump Elected?

The known facts point to Jerry Falwell Jr having sexual tastes that would be frowned on by his evangelical followers. Did the Putin/Trump campaign leverage that infomation to gain the Falwell endorsement? Again, the evidence points to yes. In 2012, Jerry Falwell Jr. and his wife Becki visited the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach. While […]

Conservative MP Phillip Lee has defected to the Liberal Democrats ahead of a showdown between Boris Johnson and Tory rebels over Brexit

I’m not an expert but I think this pushes the chances of another British General election to 100%. Also, I’d love to see a little of this moxie in the American version of the British Nutzoid Party. Conservative MP Phillip Lee has defected to the Liberal Democrats ahead of a showdown between Boris Johnson and […]

Cecil Bank of Elkton MD on the growing “Problem Bank” list

The FDIC’s official problem bank list is composed of banks with a CAMELS rating of 4 or 5. That list is not made public (just the number of banks and assets every quarter). Bank CAMELS (Capital adequacy, Asset quality, Management, Earnings, Liquidity and Sensitivity to market risk) ratings are also not made public. Because the […]

The Gun Radicals Have Truly Lost It

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of 17-month-old toddlers.” Authorities say that a man armed with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle hijacked a mail van and went on a shooting spree in the Texas sister cities of Midland and Odessa Saturday. By the time police killed the yet-unnamed […]

Why aren’t more rogue nations buying Trump flowers?

Filed in National by on September 2, 2019 0 Comments

Why aren’t more rogue nations buying Trump flowers? I don’t know why every country with serious issues with the U.S. isn’t clamoring to have its leader meet one-on-one with President Trump. All you need to do is invite him to a nice meeting, roll out the red carpet, and spend the entire meeting stroking his […]

Happy Labor Day – Strikes Work

Filed in National by on September 2, 2019 0 Comments

The Las Vegas teachers threatened a strike. You probably didn’t hear about because near-strikes don’t get much media coverage. And also because the city caved entirely in the face of the fear of the strike wave hitting it next. This is very good. Teachers to keep demanding more for themselves, which means more for their […]
