Song of the Day 6/14: Frank and Nancy Sinatra, “Somethin’ Stupid”
Republicans are always saying something stupid, but it’s rarely “I love you.” When this song surged up the charts in 1967 the lyrics puzzled me — how could the singer spoil it all by saying “I love you”? Hey, I was 11, there were lots of things I didn’t know yet. At the time, nobody […]
General Assembly Post-Game Wrap-Up/Pre-Game Show: Weds., June 14, 2023
Inscrutable Vote Department: We know that Delaware’s legislative Rethugs are a bizarre combination of climate change denialists and vocal opponents of any governmental interference into what they perceive to be their unfettered rights. So, you would expect the House R’s to unanimously vote against an otherwise innocuous bill that would ‘require new commercial buildings with […]

Unequal Application of Justice! It’s official. Trump’s entire defense is Whataboutism. Very odd, but I guess it shows that there is really no legal defense so they are going for a political defense and betting that they can win in the Electoral College. Trump claims ‘political persecution’ in speech after arraignment Former president accused of […]
Whelp…the gays had a nice little run
When dipshit centrists played along with the right-wing’s anti-trans hysteria, they were fools to think the right-wing was going to be satisfied with disappearing trans people. I even remember a dipshit sober centrist commenter here joining in. Good times. It Was A Good Few Years, In Some Ways Back in the closet. Starbucks has banned […]
Tens of Protesters Near Courthouse
Several hundred members of the media gathered Tuesday outside the Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. U.S. Courthouse in Miami before former president Donald Trump’s appearance. Trump supporters bused in from other parts of Florida In an Orlando Walmart parking lot, about four dozen Trump supporters dressed in red, white and blue clothing boarded two buses […]
Cannabis Czar – There are qualified people, Carney just didn’t look for them
This is Dasheeda Dawson’s bio. She is NYC’s Cannabis Commissioner. There are other people with decent resumes who have been working in this industry for a while. Carney didn’t look for a qualified person. Dasheeda Dawson is a global cannabis advocate, award-winning Fortune 100 business strategist, and a bestselling author on the cannabis industry. Her […]
Song of the Day 6/13: Dave Matthews Band, “Busted Stuff”
Unless I’m missing some nuance, MAGAt Nation is threatening to bust stuff up just because their hero is being called to account for his lawbreaking. Yes, nothing says “we’re the party of law and order” better than calling for people to break the law in support of an even bigger lawbreaker. This song first surfaced […]
Delaware General Assembly Pre-Game Show: Tuesday, June 13, 2023
Keep an eye out for: (a) some possible amendments to the cop-friendly LEOBOR bill. (b) some blow-back on Carney’s Pot Czar choice. In fact, don’t just keep an eye out on some blow-back, become the blow-back. Only in Carney’s blinkered worldview is an ex-top cop the perfect choice to set up what will be a […]

Video of Silent Crowd at DeSantis Rally Goes Viral: ‘Jeb Bush Vibes’
I did think DeSantis was going to give Trump some trouble. I guess it is a little harder to beat someone in a primary election, WHILE constantly kissing that person’s ass.

Trump’s arraignment and plea possibly delayed because his lawyers are running from him like he’s an ebola monkey
WASHINGTON — Former President Donald Trump touched down in Miami on Monday afternoon, a day before he is expected to make his first appearance in court to face federal charges that he willfully retained scores of documents that contained some of the nation’s most sensitive military secrets.
DEGOP Still Silent on Trump Indictment – What’s Up Wit Dat?
Unless I’m missing it, Twitter, FB and the DEGOP’s main web page continue to lack any mention of the Republican’s Orange Lord and Savior being indicted on some very serious crimes. It is and odd and eerie quiet. They’ve been full blown Trump devotees in the past.
Song of the Day 6/12: AC/DC, “Highway to Hell”
Yesterday’s I-95 fire and overpass collapse in Northeast Philadelphia quickly acquired a soundtrack. Somebody posted to social media a drive-by of the fire a few minutes before the collapse, black smoke billowing before they come upon the flames. I don’t think this was actually on their car radio, but some things are just too right […]
Senator Chris Coons was instrumental in Getting whackjob Trump Judge, Aileen Cannon, on Federal Bench
Coons helped Trump rush a record number of ideological nutbags into lifetime positions in the Federal judiciary. U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon was one of them. Heck of a job, Coonsie! Twelve Democratic senators voted in favor of the appointment of a federal district judge who granted former President Donald Trump‘s request for a special […]
Last Week’s Poll Results and This Week’s Poll.
Per wikipedia, Kyle Evans Gay is an American politician. She is a Democratic member of the Delaware Senate representing District 5.[1] She came out of nowhere to dominate our highly scientific Lt Gov poll. Is she even interested in it? If someone interested in her senate seat? So many questions. This week’s poll… What happens to Trump? With our […]
