Wait…Avelo doesn’t suck?
I flew out of New Castle on Frontier once, and it was horrible. Now this… Andrew C says: July 28, 2023 at 3:08 pm Greetings from Myrtle Beach! I’m staying with my parents again for a week down in Trump Country in their Never Trump home. Happy to report that I flew out of Wilmington […]
The Press Breathlessly Reports the Most Recent Trump Indictment
Trump directly directed an employee to destroy evidence of his crimes, which is a crime. GASP!!! Shocking!! By my count this is the 48th time the press has reported THE BIG ONE, that will change everything. The New Evidence Against Donald Trump In The MAL Case Is BRUTAL Surprise! With reporters clustered at the DC federal courthouse […]
Fox News – What heat wave? It is just a deep state temp measuring trick
All these paid liars should be rounded up and eventually hung for their crimes. The people that paid them to lie, as well. It’s not climate change that’s causing heat waves this summer but no one wants to explain why In the 1930s, the government’s Heat Wave Index was four times higher Every summer, heat […]
One more thing about McBride and Young
I took a second to step back and collect my thoughts about the Young/McBride primary and fwiw, here you go: I have previously mentioned that there are Democratic primaries I like and ones I don’t like. When a Madinah takes out an John Viola in a democratic primary, for example. That’s a good primary. When […]

Say what you want about Trump, but you have to give him credit for bankrupting the Arizona, Colorado, Michigan, and Minnesota state Republican Parties. Former President Donald Trump and even some of his key GOP rivals may be raking in money — but at the state level, it’s a different story. State Republican Parties in […]
Patriotism Police
I’ve noticed this at Phillies games. There are self-appointed patriotism enforcers who will scream at you if they think you are taking too long to remove your hat during National Anthem. It is ridiculous and annoying wingnut virtue signaling. And oh yeah, they also think you should stand up for “God Bless America” which is […]
Did the climate change asteroid finally hit this summer?
It seems like climate change has suddenly become a thing. I mean it has been a thing for a while now, but a thing this country could all easily laugh off or ignore. It was sneaking up on us. 78 degrees and sunny in November? Yes, please! Now it is here and that’s good, right? […]

This will work. Mitt Romney has a plan to disrupt the “apparent inevitability” of Donald Trump locking up the GOP presidential nomination. Romney is calling on donors and influencers to get candidates to drop out by late February. Have you heard? It seems that Delaware legalized marijuana. Where should Delaware’s marijuana stores go? Sussex County considers legal options for areas […]
Last Week’s Poll Results and This Week’s Poll
It seems like last week’s poll turned into a McBride v Young proxy battle. But who is who? Is McBride the AOC/Sanders and Young is the Joe Biden? I guess it is possible. Living outside of Wilmington I know virtually nothing of Young, so he could be the “traditional democrat” in this round of voting. His announcement certainly strikes that tone. Similarly, you could say that McBride is the AOC here if you stand her up next to someone like Chris Coons, for example.
Which type of candidate would you prefer as your next congressperson?
- A progressive democrat like Bernie Sanders or Alexandria Occasio-Cortez
- A traditional democrat like Joe Biden
Total Votes: 128

Song of the Day 7/24: Randy Newman, “Sail Away”
For 200 years now some people have maintained that slavery was a benefit to the enslaved – “They were better off than they were in Africa” goes the refrain. In Florida, that’s now official history. Under the state’s new educational standards, students will be taught that slavery benefitted the enslaved. Abraham Lincoln had the proper […]
Chris Coons Viewed as Weak Link as Biden Tries to Keep Senate Dems Unified on Tommy Tuberville
President Biden announced more military nominees as Sen. Tuberville digs in on blocking them. And yet, while the president called the Alabama Republican’s hold on promotions and nominations “dangerous,” and asked the Senate to quickly confirm the nominees, it is a Democrat that wants to cave to Tuberville’s hostage taking – Chris Coons. According to […]

A home invasion is the ultimate wet dream of your average MAGA gun nut.
