Don’t See Many Stories Like This One: More than $100,000 in Apple products that were being shipped from Delaware to China have been seized, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced on Wednesday.

El Somnambulo Picks Some Of ‘Em For You
Wasn’t gonna do this. But, I can’t help myself. US Representative: Sarah McBride (D) and Donyale Hall (R). Assuming, of course, that anybody turns out to vote in the Republican Primary. Governor: Matt Meyer (D) wins, doesn’t quite get to 50%. Let’s say 46%, BHL 32%, O’Mara 22%. Can’t wait for the Delaware Way implosion […]

“Trump has yet to find an attack on Harris that will stick.” This is, no joke, how the media is treating his campaign’s All Insults, All The Time strategy, along with dutifully repeating every insult every time. That they consider this part of their mission is good evidence that they are part of the problem. […]
Song of the Day 9/3: James Darren (as Vic Fontaine), “Come Fly With Me”
To people of a certain age – say, 80 – James Darren, who died yesterday at age 88, will always be Moondoggie, the handsome male lead in “Gidget.” That now-ignored 1959 film made Sandra Dee a star, introduced the country to the surfing scene that would sweep teen culture, and made Darren a dual-threat teen […]

Trump did and said some dumb shit yesterday, I don’t even know what and I don’t much care. He’ll do and say some dumb shit today that they’ll report tomorrow, too, because they just can’t quit saying “You won’t believe what he said now.” Yes, yes I would. He obviously will say anything, and it’s […]

A bit more roots/blues-oriented than usual, which is not a bad thing in my book: Pony Bradshaw, also featuring Rachel Baiman: Combat: Lounge Lizard gets what he deserves?: MAVI:
Song of the Day 9/2: Adele, “Chasing Pavements”
Is Adele pulling a Greta Garbo? The British pop icon announced during her concert in Munich the other night that once her Las Vegas residency ends in November, “I will not see you for an incredibly long time. … I’ve spent the last seven years building a new life for myself, and I want to […]

The New York Times’ mollycoddling of Trump has gotten especially egregious lately, and you’re not the only one who noticed. Margaret Sullivan, the Times’ former public editor, calls them out for their recent whopper comparing Kamala Harris’ affordable housing plan to Trump’s, which is no better thought out than “we’ll deport millions of people.” I […]

Song of the Day 9/30: Abba, “Money, Money, Money”
As El Som noted in today’s Open Thread, Jack White has joined the veritable seven-nation army of musicians who’ve demanded Trump’s campaign stop using their music for rallies and online videos.

The most important item(s) you’ll read all day is/are in the comments section of the Lydia York article. Suffice it to say that the State Democratic Party’s embrace of a nominee as consistently corrupt as Bethany Hall-Long is an utter disgrace. And spare me the bullshit about the democratic process that led to her endorsement. […]
