Is This The Smoking Gun That Finally Takes Down Trump?
If true, I think the answer is yes. “If true.” These are the words that Lawrence O’Donnell used over and over again tonight. And he emphasizes that it’s only a single source so far. But he cites the source as being with the Deutsche Bank. And his source tells him that the reason that Trump […]

NCC Council Approves Height Limits On Landfills. The vote was unanimous, with two abstentions. A tip of the sombrero to Matt Meyer and to Council. It’s about time someone, anyone, challenged Delaware’s casual environmental racism. Couldn’t find out who abstained on the County website. Who were the two miscreants? Nancy, were you there? Trump Moves […]
Yes, Yes, Yes! Chris Johnson Appointed To Wilmington City Council…
…well, not quite. Council will hold a formal vote on Thursday. But council members who interviewed three candidates have forwarded Johnson’s name to the entire council for confirmation. I can’t think of a single individual in the entire city who I would rather see on council. On issues such as economic justice, criminal justice, […]

Delaware’s Unclaimed Property Czar Is…Brenda Mayrack. Ya gotta admit, this is one of the greatest money-raising gimmicks any state has ever come up with. It’s really too bad that Mayrack was such a bad candidate–she would have been an outstanding auditor. “Nighty-night. Don’t Let The Bedbugs Bite.” I don’t generally post directly from Daily Kos, […]

Trump: Drop Nukes To Stop Hurricanes From Hitting the US. Since, according to Trump, Puerto Rico isn’t part of the US, he can solve two ‘problems’ at the same time. He’s cra-a-a-zy. Miami Cubans Warm To Socialism. In the ‘Canadian healthcare’ and ‘Green New Deal’ sense. About time that Rethugs’ hold on ‘Red Scare’ Cubanos […]

The Republican Slide Into Trumpism. As a side note, Joe Biden’s vision of bipartisanship is exposed once again. How Nikki Haley Tried To Replace Pence On 2020 Ticket. Kids, this is not how to oust someone from power. BTW, this Pence guy is a study in strangeness. Did Anyone (Other Than Me) Not Have An […]

David Koch: The Ultimate Climate Change Denier. I mean, why not? What’s one measly planet when you have a fossil fuel empire to–fuel? White House Whines: Trump Got Played By NRA. Claims LaPierre ‘mischaracterized’ discussions with Trump. If there’s one thing this Administration understands, it’s mischaracterization. Ain’t that right, Mr. AG? (OK, kids, time for […]

Proud Boys Admit: It’s All About Wasting Public $$’s And Inciting Violence. I’m no attorney, but that sounds like ‘shouting fire in a crowded theatre’ to me. Monsanto & Rethugs Sought To Defund Cancer Research In the Name Of…’Roundup’. Hey, when you’re spewing poison, get rid of the scientists who call you out. Even Rethugs […]

Matt Meyer: Not An Environmental Racist. Unlike John Carney, who sells out an entire community for 10 jobs and a ‘slag-grinding’ operation. (I STILL can’t believe that. Talk about priorities.) Matt Meyer, Jea Street, and New Castle County Council do what the General Assembly would have done had not State Sen. Darius Brown apparently been […]

Every Day Is White Supremacist Day. As in this. And this. The new normal. Every Day Is Right-Wing Preacher Hypocrisy Day. As in this. And this. The same old normal. No Greenland, No Denmark For Trump. Everything is transactional. Except when there’s no hope of a transaction. Still, with legalized prostitution… ‘No More Corporate Lawyers […]
More Environmental Racism From DNREC And, Of Course, Our Governor
Are you bleeping kidding me?: https://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2019/08/20/dnrec-approves-permit-over-southbridge-neighbor-concerns/2051873001/ ‘Delaware OK’s Slag-Grinding Plant Over Neighbor Health Concerns’. John Carney and his DNREC lackeys have decided that the creation of up to 10(!) jobs is more important than the health of residents in the already environmentally-challenged community of Southbridge. According to the News-Journal article, the company will be obligated […]

Biden To Cali: “Drop Dead”. For the second time, he skips a meeting with D political leaders in the most delegate-rich state in the union. Campaigning in NH instead. In August. Dead man walking.
