Open Thread For August 5, 2017
Mueller Seeks White House Records On Flynn. Fascinating look into his business dealings. Trump shoulda listened to Obama: Flynn was and is bad news for King Cheeto. Putin Embracing Crypto-Currencies As Money Laundering Tool? Looks like it. BTW, these sanctions are working when it comes to money laundering. How WV Guv’s Party Switch Could Impact […]
Mo’ Better Dems: Andria Bennett, RD 32
You knew this one was coming. Failure to field a progressive challenger in this district would be political malpractice. The District. Perhaps no RD was made safer for D’s during the 2012 redistricting than the 32nd . It went from a swing-D district to a totally safe district. The registration numbers are as follows: 6914 […]

McMaster Fires Leaker. The guy who ‘leaked’ to Devin Nunes. He tried to fire him before, but Jared Kushner and Steve Bannon intervened. In other words, Ezra Cohen-Watnick was Trump’s kind of leaker. Trump’s Afghanistan Policy In Shambles. Wants to fire commander b/c ‘We’re not winning’. Oh, and he’s PO’d b/c that the Chinese negotiated […]

Trump ‘Justice’ Department To Push Affirmative Action For White People. Typical Rethuggery. Dubya did it. To be run out of Justice’s political shop, not the career employees. Betch’a Sen. Flake approves. Judges To Rethugs: Redraw North Carolina Districts Now! What’s at stake? Rethug veto-proof majorities. Tillerson Turns Down $80 Mill To Counter ISIS and Russian Propaganda. […]

Trump Came Up With Jr’s Phony Russian Meeting Meme. More orphan than not. Dictated the memo about how Junior should lie while on Air Force One. Sounds like Obstruction of Justice to me. Must-read of the day. Administration still leaking like a sieve. BTW, Trump’s lawyer had specifically asserted that the President was not involved in […]
BREAKING: Mooch Out! Yes, Already
Maybe the new Chief-In-Staff insisted on this move before he would accept the position. Where did I hear the story? On ESPN’s trade deadline special. They called it the biggest deal of the day. Technically, Mooch was never in. Now he’ll never be in. Until maybe he is in. Someday: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/31/us/politics/anthony-scaramucci-white-house.html?mcubz=0
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes: July 2017
I had so much good stuff this month that I excised some just to keep the numbers manageable. Another great month: “I miss you, but don’t miss you like I miss Prince…”. I LOL’d : While we’re on the subject of famed rockers’ deaths: From Japanese Breakfast to…Japanese Math Rock? Whatever it is, I love […]

Carper Is Running. In case you’ve forgotten, here are some reasons why we need a progressive challenger: https://delawareliberal.net//2016/11/29/how-tom-carpers-votes-and-positions-screw-people-and-help-rethugs-to-screw-people-volume-1/ https://delawareliberal.net//2016/11/30/how-tom-carpers-votes-and-positions-screw-people-and-help-rethugs-to-screw-people-volume-2/ https://delawareliberal.net//2016/12/06/how-tom-carpers-positions-and-votes-screw-people-and-help-rethugs-screw-people-volume-3/ https://delawareliberal.net//2016/12/13/how-tom-carpers-positions-and-votes-screw-people-and-help-rethugs-screw-people-volume-4/ This defeatism that only Father Time can stop Carper is BS.

Trump – Let Obamacare (and the economy) implode
Remember…this is all about keeping his Russian crimes in the background. Completely fucking shit up isn’t an accident. It is a strategy, After the Senate’s latest effort to repeal Obamacare failed early Friday morning, President Donald Trump proposed simply letting the Affordable Care Act “implode” before working up replacement legislation. The Senate GOP’s effort to […]
Mo’ Better Democrats: Melanie George Smith, RD 5
OK, I’m cheating here a little. Melanie Smith and her husband have purchased a house outside of her RD. It is an open secret that she plans to leave the General Assembly at the end of her term. She sought a judgeship, but was rebuffed by the Nominating Committee. However, even had she chosen to […]
It’s Obvious: Without Access To Laundered Russian Money, The Trump Organization Would Collapse
It’s my Eureka moment. Everything is explained and explainable once we realize that my headline is correct. Everything. I’ll start, but I encourage everyone to contribute to this post. First, this breaking news from the NYTimes. Deutsche Bank, the only bank that will lend to Trump, has been fined over $600 million for laundering Russian […]

The District: RD 4 runs from western Wilmington, including Trolley Square and the Flats west through Westover Hills, out past Chestnut Run and almost to Hockessin, with Barley Mill Road and Lancaster Pike as the northernmost boundaries and Faulkland Road as the southernmost […]
Utterly Pathetic.
Congratulations, Andria. You now have a budget w/o income tax increases, even on Delaware’s wealthiest. Please leave. Yes, the General Assembly has a budget, another smoke and mirrors kick the can down the road budget. A combination of sin tax increases and realty transfer tax increases. Personal income taxes couldn’t be considered b/c Bennett’s no […]
