Song of the Day 7/1: Jackson Browne, “Call It a Loan”
The Supreme Court hath spoken, and it repeated its mantra: Money talks, everything else walks. Call it American justice: Bankruptcy can wipe out all the loans you can’t repay except the ones you took out when you were in or just out of your teens. The loan Jackson Browne was singing about was emotional, not […]

This should really be Ramone’s last lap in the pool
The DEGOP is all about shitting on Biden and being afraid that a trans person is going to try and influence the state softball championship. With that lackluster infrastructure and this being a presidential year, Ramone, Smith and Hensley should be gone, gone, gone after the next election. But there are Democrats that seem vested […]

I’m sure we’ll also hear how this is Trump’s genius laying a trap for his enemies. SEAN HANNITY (HOST): You get leaks of these tapes that we played last night on Hannity involving Donald Trump, which, by the way, don’t prove a thing as far as I’m concerned. You know, but if you’re a […]

McBride Announcement opens the door to a hard fought and bitter primary battle among Republicans
I did something I never do. Egged on by DL commenter Andrew C, I read the comments under the Sarah McBride article on Fox News. The disgusting fucktrocity ™ of the comments confirmed to me the the DEGOP is going to tear itself apart as the worst scum imaginable vie for the opportunity to collect all of the the money that will be available to McBride’s challenger.
Make no mistake – they will not be running for the opportunity to represent Delaware in congress. They will be running to separate dumbfuck wingnuts from their money.
