Maryland To Review Cases Handled By Ex-Medical Examiner Who Testified For Chauvin’s Defense. Including this case: In 2018, a 19-year-old college student named Anton Black died after interacting with a Greensboro officer responding to a call of a possible kidnapping on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. “Anton Black died because police employed excessive force, laying him out […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Thursday, April 22, 2021
Looks like Mike Ramone’s gonna have to stock up on Robot Lifeguards. That’s the inescapable conclusion following yesterday’s surreal meeting of the Business Lapdog Committee, where the sheer idiocy of arguments against a $15 minimum wage made it impossible for even the Chamber-leaning D’s to justify burying the bill in committee. Matt Bittle, as usual, […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Weds., April 21, 2021
The Cop Cabal is in survival mode. All three of the leaders voted to release the anti-democratic HB 30 (Bolden), which would have the effect of severely limiting primary challenges, from committee. Should the bill get a vote in the House, which it likely will, pay attention: Every D legislator who votes ‘yes’ will reveal […]
Police Accountability In Delaware Has Been Killed Just As Dead As Lymond Moses
The killers? The Cop Cabal that runs the Delaware House Of Representatives. And, yes, that guy again, Governor John Carney. I’m sure you all remember the photo op outside of Leg Hall in the wake of the George Floyd death at the hands of the Minneapolis cops. All solemnity, and vows to ensure that Black […]
El Somnambulo Reviews Wrestlemania 37: Night 2
The hot rumor making the rounds is that Becky Lynch will return tonight, likely in a truck, following her being away for almost a year away as she became a mom. Looks like there’s a ready-made feud with Bayley awaiting her. Tonight’s ‘celebrity’ is Logan Paul. Yet another media creation who is ‘famous for being […]
El Somnambulo Reviews Wrestlemania 37-Night One
An utterly insipid pre-game panel featuring one Kayla Braxton as the host; Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler, dressed like a maitre d’ at a red gravy joint; Booker T: JBL, and somebody named Peter Rosenberg. It’s been raining in Tampa, but it appears that it will stop in time for the kickoff of the show. Drew […]

Voter Suppression Too Extreme Even For Wisconsin’s Right-Wing Supreme Court. “If the court had ruled the other way, thousands of voters would have routinely come off the rolls every two years when election officials believed they had moved.” The Absolute Corruption Of Clarence And Virginia Thomas. It has ever been thus with these two. An […]
Memo To These Legislators: Support The $15 Minimum Wage
If there ever has been an issue that should unite all Democratic legislators, it is the $15 minimum wage. SB 15 passed the Senate, and all Democratic senators voted for it. The Senate amendment that was added to the bill made clear that Delaware’s minimum wage would remain at the criminally-paltry $9.25/hour until January of […]

Alabama Refuses To Lift Yoga Ban. The Reason? Hindu Indoctrination. Having taken acid gives me even more appreciation for a story like this. Hindu indoctrination is a real thing. You start with a few ommmm chants, and you end up here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQrQjNNZCAo Next thing you know, the entire Alabama congressional delegation is Black. MLB Moves […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: March 2021
If two of these songs seem kinda ‘out-there’ even by my standards, no, my tastes haven’t changed. It’s just that two great songs happened to be ‘out there’ this month. See if you can spot them amongst the other gems: One of the best videos I’ve seen in forever. Something you may not have known […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Wednesday, March 31, 2021
The Senate is rolling out the legislative artillery, beginning today. Two gun control bills, SB 3 (Lockman) and SB 6 (Sokola), will be considered in the Senate Judiciary Committee today, and have been scheduled as the only two bills on tomorrow’s Senate Agenda. I think they’ve each got at least 12 votes in the Senate, […]
Delaware General Assembly Pre-Game Show: Tuesday, March 30, 2021
Since this is the last week before a two-week break for the Easter holidays, look for bills that the two houses want to get to the Governor quickly to receive top priority. Both the House and Senate will run agendas today, and the Senate will also hold a couple of committee meetings. Highlights on today’s […]

Moscow Mitch Loses Kentucky Smelting Plant. Sad: In 2019, Rusal announced its commitment to invest $200 million in the plant, which stirred up criticism as the decision came shortly after the U.S. Treasury Department lifted sanctions on Rusal and its parent company. A spokesman for Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, then majority leader, told the […]
