DHS Hid Russian Attempts To Spread Misinformation On Biden’s Health. The entire government is part of a criminal conspiracy to get Trump reelected. Isn’t that a story?

Song of the Day 9/2: Bowling for Soup, “1985”
Now that Antifa’s secret weapon, soup, has been uncovered by ace detective Donald Trump, it’s time to reveal where we got the idea: from Bowling for Soup, the Texas-based band that hit its peak in the early ’00s with “Girl All the Bad Guys Want” and this pop-punk sendup of the music of their childhood […]
We’re still at the beginning of the Trump economic catastrophe
Bailing out banks not people is a recipe for economic calamity. At some point, debts that can’t be paid will not be paid. Hudson’s oft-repeated golden rule is “Debts that can’t be paid, won’t be paid.” That is to say: making it harder to declare bankruptcy, or binding debtors over to arbitration or wage-garnishing won’t […]
Delaware Assoc. of Realtors in Bed With VERY Shady NJ SuperPAC Supporting Ennis and Jones – RECAP
I wish this was “Part 2” and not a recap post. A Part 2 will have pulled on this string a little more and, who knows, with the right breeze exposed the pert nipples of whoever is paying Keith Furlong and a VERY shady NJ consulting company to go after Matt Meyer while propping up, or pretending to prop up Bruce Ennis.
So here is the recap and questions that still need answering:

Trump Denies Having Had Mini-Strokes That Nobody Accused Him Of Having. There can only be one conclusion–he’s had mini-strokes, and he knows it. Now, everybody suspects it. Probably why he took that ‘very difficult’ cognitive test. An unforced political error. Not to mention, even by his own standards, he’s been saying some weird shit lately: […]
The Chris Coons of Massachusetts Badly Beaten – Career Ended
Pelosi endorsed “moderate” asswipe Joseph Kennedy III, has become the first Kennedy ever defeated in a Massachusetts Dem primary race. Markey is now a progressive legend. And fuck Nancy Pelosi, fuck Coons and fuck all loser centrist, GOP collaborators.
MASSACHUSETTS — Sen. Ed Markey has done what no Massachusetts politician has done before: Defeat a Kennedy. Markey survived a fierce challenge by Rep. Joe Kennedy in the Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate. Kennedy called Markey to concede the race around 10 p.m.
The victory sets up Markey, 74, to retain his seat following an unexpected challenge that turned contentious down the stretch.
General Strike #3
Believe Trump when he says that he will burn the country down before accepting the verdict of voters. Day by day, step by step we get closer. When the time comes: Stop Working Stop Buying Empty your Accounts (stack up cash) Be Prepared A top Democratic data and analytics firm told “Axios on […]
Song of the Day 9/1: The Sanford-Townsend Band, “Smoke From a Distant Fire”
It’s wildfire season again in California, and smoke reaching the jet stream is creating spectacular sunsets across the Midwestern and Mountain states. Some of it has even reached Delaware, which brings us to this blue-eyed soul classic, which reached No. 9 on the Hot 100 in 1977. Ed Sanford and Johnny Townsend were both keyboard […]
John Viola Tries To ‘Pull A DeLuca’. Don’t Let Him Get Away With It
Kids, I want you to consider the twin fates of ‘Tiny Tony’ DeLuca and John ‘Third Chair’ Viola. Both were products of the construction trade power brokers. Both got jobs in the Department of Labor, jobs for which neither was qualified. Tony was ‘in charge’ of labor law enforcement, and Viola was his go-fer. They […]
Delaware Assoc. of Realtors in Bed With VERY Shady NJ SuperPAC Supporting Ennis and Jones
Yesterday’s mail piece from the VERY shady New Jersey-based Super PAC trying to unseat Matt Meyer has a return address. That address is: 134 E Water St Dover DE 19901. That’s also the address for the Delaware Association of Realtors.

Trump Encourages White Militias To Bring Guns To Protests. In fact, he’s the accelerant. Hey, at least he’s taken everyone’s mind off of Covid: But Cassie Miller, a senior research analyst for the Southern Poverty Law Center, sees peril: “The far right is now anointing themselves the only force standing between order and chaos, a […]
Song of the Day 8/31: Big Country, “In a Big Country”
Remember when this Scottish band hit the shores of our much bigger country? MTV was young and this video was in heavy rotation, boosting the song to No. 3 on the rock chart and No. 17 on the Hot 100. Guitarists Bruce Watson and group founder Stuart Adamson got their guitars to sound like bagpipes […]
