Judge Calls Barr Handling Of Mueller Report ‘Distorted’ And ‘Misleading’. The result could ultimately be the release of the report in unredacted form. The judge, BTW, was appointed by Dubya. Why The Coronavirus Could Threaten US Economy More Than China’s. When people-to-people interaction diminishes, so does economic activity. How The Trump Administration ‘Brain Drain’ Impedes […]

Rethugs Make It Harder For College Students To Vote. Without voter suppression, they’d literally have no chance. Voter suppression is built into every strategy they employ. Steve Bullock To Run For US Senate From Montana? If so, that seat is in play. Like, really in play. $8.3 Billion For Coronavirus Relief. More than 4 times […]

Personal to Mark Eichmann: Destroy that tape! Shortly after Biden announced, WHYY’s Eichmann did a radio interview with me where I confidently predicted that Biden would peak upon his entrance into the race and be an afterthought come 2020. Well, in fairness, I was almost correct. He was near-comatose for much of the campaign, only […]

Corporadems Coalesce Around Ol’ Joe. I’m not generally much of a conspiracy theorist. But the seemingly spontaneous endorsement orgy has me suspicious. It’s not as if Buttigieg and Klobuchar had to get out before Super Tuesday, and it’s not as if the Biden campaign was nimble enough to orchestrate this. All I can say is, […]

Coronavirus Outbreak In Washington State. Scientists believe that the virus has been spreading unabated for six weeks, largely thanks to Federal strict testing requirements. How Delaware Lawmakers Spend Their Community Transportation Funds. I didn’t realize the extent to which legislators ‘lend’ money to other legislators with no areas in common. Worth reading, and I definitely […]

Biden Wins South Carolina. Dominoes Start To Fall. Steyer’s out. The corporadems, aka the so-called ‘moderates’, will no doubt beg all other so-called moderates to leave the field to Ol’ Joe. Because there’s nothing more inevitable than a candidate who has finally won one primary in three tries at the Presidency. I’m trying to recall […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: Feb. 2020
The women rule, mostly, in this month’s bounty of great tunes. Enjoy! I just love me some Japanese math-rock! Damn, that one gives me chills. Spotify Time:

Potrumpkin Village Completely Unprepared For Coronavirus. Blames D’s For Criticizing (something the Rethugs never did during the Ebola scare, which was handled admirably by the Obama Administration). Blames media for inspiring stock market meltdown. Here’s what we know. Up until yesterday, virtually no significant testing was being done because public health agencies didn’t have testing […]
Delaware Political Weekly: Feb. 21-27, 2020
1. Mayor Mike Announces Reelection Run. Read all about it in this WDEL interview. The gentrification of Wilmington is well under way. Given four more years, he and Buccini/Pollin will likely have succeeded in relegating those not championed by the Chamber to the margins. Nobody of any stature appears inclined to challenge him, though. I […]

Pence’s Job? Silence The Scientists. This administration is not treating this as a public health emergency. To them, it’s a messaging emergency. Which is why these incompetents are once again going after a whistleblower who described just how unprepared the responders were. And, yep, Trump fired the entire US pandemic response team in 2018, and […]

Mike Pence’s Brilliant Handling Of Indiana Health Crisis Was–Not Brilliant. ‘Praying away’ an HIV outbreak didn’t work. This is not a serious administration, which is why these losers are scrambling to reassemble the pandemic team that Obama had. Yes, The ‘Superdelegates’ Could Deny Bernie The Nomination. I will just say this–if he indeed is the […]

Trump Is Furious At CDC…: …not for being unprepared for the coronavirus, but for spooking the stock market. Trump’s Acting DNI Secretary Likely Couldn’t Get A Security Clearance. You know, that ‘failure to register as a foreign lobbyist’ thingy. This time, for Hungary’s oppressive regime. Where does he find these people? Meet The Compulsive […]
Could Berniemania Vault Jess Scarane To The Senate?
Answer: Yes, it could. Follow along with me here: It’s September of 2020. Bernie Sanders is the Democratic nominee for President, having been anointed on Wednesday, July 15 in Milwaukee, two months prior. At that point, the landscape for November has completely changed (I think a lot of people have not yet considered the face […]
