What does it mean that there is no “middle” in American politics?
I’m seriously asking. I mean I know that the fact that there is “no middle” (that there are no “persuadable” voters (that there are no magical centrists who are gong to save America with their magical sobriety and even handedness)) is bad news for fucking fuckstick collaborators like Chris Coons. It also should mean that […]
Song of the Day 5/21: Fred Willard and Catherine O’Hara, “Midnight at the Oasis”
The late, great Fred Willard couldn’t sing, and you can prove it by the lack of video clips showing him doing it. His brief vocal turn in “Waiting for Guffman,” as travel agent/community theater leading man Ron Albertson (with Catherine O’Hara as his wife/leading lady Shiela), reveals limits to both his range and his ability […]

Trump Gave No-Bid Contract To Company For Mask-Cleaning. $413 million. The machines don’t work. More theft, pure and simple. Missouri Cops Beat Grandmother And Son For Trying To Return TV To Sam’s Club. I’m sorry, these cops are Nazis. They think they’re above the law, and they generally are.

Trump Unveils Campaign Strategy: Expand Base Beyond Racists Idiots to Include Very Racists Idiots & Absurdly Racist Idiots
Trump’s poll numbers are terrible. It is strange to think that he hasn’t spent one minute in office trying to win over any voters who are not already Trump voters. It is almost as if he knows something that we don’t know.
Coons is a bad Senator and Would be a Horrible Secretary of State
Unless Joe Biden is looking for a blood-thirsty Secretary of State who has a longterm lease on a condo in Benjamin Netanyahu’s ass – Coons would be a terrible Secretary of State pick.
Also, Jess Scarane is right. If it is true that Coons is going to be Biden’s pick the head up the State Department he is running for his Senate seat in bad faith.
Recent reports say that Chris Coons is being considered as a Secretary of State nominee.
Delaware voters deserve to know whether Chris Coons will serve out his Senate term before casting their ballots in the September primary election.
I’m calling on Chris Coons to confirm that he will serve out this 6-year Senate term if elected, and refuse a presidential appointment if it’s offered to him.
If he cannot commit to that, then he should drop out of the Senate race. Delawareans have the right to know that their vote matters. They should be confident that the candidate they vote for will actually do the job if elected.
Song of the Day 5/20: Weird Al Yankovic, “Fat”
She spends a lot less time slinging insults than Trump does, but Nancy Pelosi absolutely owned the All-Too-Visible Enemy with a little concern trolling Monday, pointing out that he probably shouldn’t be taking hydroxychloroquine given his age group and “weight group…morbidly obese.” She then dunked on him yesterday, claiming, I didn’t know that he would […]

Pompeo Held Elaborate Dinners For Elites And Prospective Donors–At Taxpayer Expense. He and his wife are seriously corrupt. No wonder he had the IG fired. A must-read. BTW, Pompeo lied about not knowing of an investigation into his actions. Turns out he refused an interview with the IG. Voter Suppression In TX. How the Rethugs […]
Delaware Political Sorta Weekly: Mid-May Edition
Man, you get virtually nothin’ for months on end, and then we get a deluge. If this keeps up, I just might go back to a weekly edition–at least through the filing deadline. 1.

Trump Threatens To Permanently Cut WHO Funding. Oh, and to leave the organization. His perpetual search for a scapegoat continues. A relentlessly destructive force. Trump Gives Brand-New Company $354 Mill To Manufacture Drugs Right Here In The Good Ol’ USA. While I generally like the idea of this, it’s Trump, Navarro, and potentially $800-plus million […]
Obese Fox News Fan is a Gullible Twit
Dog bites man. Trump is a dummy with bad judgement. Of course he takes an unproven drug that he heard about on Fox News.
Also, Trump is fat.
“He’s our president, and I would rather he not be taking something that has not been approved by the scientists, especially in his age group and his, shall we say, weight group … morbidly obese,
Song of the Day 5/18: Stevie Nicks, “Stand Back”
This is the theme song for my mandatory two-week quarantine. I play it for anyone who wants to visit, right after I explain to them that for some reason two-thirds of the people working at London Heathrow couldn’t be bothered to wear masks. Though he isn’t credited as co-writer, this song owes its existence to […]
