Where is Lisa Blunt Rochester?
Enjoying a break from her taxing workload in Congress, and getting a little R&R* with her mentor. That’s where.
I Love Bernie Sanders
It is official. The guy who created the platform that all of the Dems in primary field are running on has made it official. I also love any Democrat who wins the nomination provided the contest is fair and transparent. And if you think that way to support your favorite candidate is to try and […]

Dems launch probe into whether the NRA helped Chris Coons’ Prayer Partners funnel money to Republicans
Via ABC News “We are disturbed by the lack of transparency the NRA has demonstrated surrounding the December 2015 trip to Moscow,” Democratic Reps. Ted Lieu of California and Kathleen Rice of New York write in a letter obtained by ABC News. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. Democratic lawmakers are launching […]
“Shareholder Primacy” aka, THE WORLD’s DUMBEST IDEA – Revisited
Groveling to corporations, throwing tax abatements at them and begging them in your city was not the norm prior to the hegemony of “Shareholder Primacy”
Before THE WORLD’s DUMBEST IDEA became business school orthodoxy, many companies had a healthy interest in their country, their communities, and their workers.
In 1970 that was all swept away, and replaced with what we have now – a shitmess.
Trump asked Japanese Prime Minister to nominate Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize
Jesus Christ, Trump. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe nominated U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize last autumn after receiving a request from the U.S. government to do so, the Asahi newspaper reported on Sunday. Trump requested that the Japanese Prime Minister nominate Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize, because all the peace […]
Bubbles Gotta Pop
When China’s real estate bubble pops, it ain’t going to be pretty. China’s real-estate bubble is the largest in human history, and despite years of warning signs, it has grown and grown, spilling over into the rest of the world. It’s hard to overstate just how crazy China’s real-estate market is: 25% of the country’s […]
Weld Launches Trump Primary Challenge
Stating that there should be at least one non-professional-liar-criminally-corrupt-lazy-fat-mentally-ill-idiot in the race for the Republican nomination, former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld launched a presidential exploratory committee to run in 2020 as a Republican.
Is Trump on heavy pain killers?
It is a serious question. I forced myself to listen to the Rose Garden address and it was flat out nuts. Every news outlet should be leading with “is Trump fit to serve?” stories. He sounded wobbly and hanging onto a semblance of coherence by a thread.
Pssst…Tom Carper, The Pentagon has $Billions for the taking
If the “Trump Emergency” has a silver lining it may turn out to be the news that the Pentagon is just a huge piggy bank stuffed with unobligated billions. That will be handy when Tom Caper returns to trying to cut Social Security.
While Delaware’s congressional delegation slept
Trump to declare a “national emergency”. President Trump plans to sign a border deal that will avoid a partial government shutdown, and at the same time declare a national emergency, as he has threatened to do, in order secure more funding to build a border wall. The White House confirmed Trump’s decision, which was first […]
Bezos Pulls Out
Jeff Bezos, the world’s richest man except for Vladimir Putin, is having a rough year. First he announced his divorce, but that turned out to be his way of getting ahead of the National Enquirer’s story about his relationship with Lauren Sanchez. That turned even uglier when Bezos revealed AMI threatened to publicize his dick […]
DNC Must Deny Fox “News” Presidential Primary Debates
I support this. Fox News isn’t a legitimate news network. It simply isn’t. This should not be a tough call for DNC Chair Tom Perez. Today, Daily Kos Founder and Publisher Markos Moulitsas called on the Democratic National Committee to reject Fox News’ bid to host a Democratic presidential primary debate as a petition to […]
