Nicole and Tony Sittin’ In a Tree, P-I-S-S-I-N-G…
…on the current and should-be future Labor Secretary, Patrice Gilliam-Johnson. Who are Nicole and Tony? That would be Senator Nicole Poore and disgraced ex-Senator Tony DeLuca.

How A Potential Boondoggle Became a Full-Fledged Boondoggle

News Journal Kisses Lisa’s Behind

Made me want to ‘fwow’ up: http://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2017/02/03/after-month-blunt-rochester-finding-her-direction/97395588/ The guilty journalist is one Adam Duvernay.

What Al Thinks You Need To Know: Jan. 28, 2017
A Guest Post from Alby Damned If you’re collected indications that Trump is either different or incompetent, take your pick, here’s one that went mostly unnoticed: No Friday news dump.
