DL Open Thread: Friday, August 30, 2024
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. […]
Song of the Day 8/29: Dire Straits, “Money for Nothing”
Whatever else he does, Donald Trump remains committed to the Art of the Grift. Amid his soporific campaigning and military cemetery lawbreaking, he found time to peddle a new line of so-called digital trading cards. This is as close as one can come to paying money for nothing, but Trump fans can be counted on […]
Delaware’s Most Intriguing Primaries Of 2024: #1–Democratic Governor
Let’s not bury the lede: In recent Delaware history, meaning as far back as I can remember, there has NEVER been a candidate with such a lengthy litany of unethical and illegal behavior like Bethany Hall-Long. From the beginning of her political career up to the present, her actions and those of her husband create […]
Yo, Lydia, Any Reports Hanging Around Your Desk Just Waiting To Be Made Public?
An Open Letter To Lydia York, State Auditor: You and I both know something. The same thing. You are in possession of a report that could have a direct impact on a statewide race. Almost certainly will. You and I both know what report we are talking about. You and I are well aware of […]
DL Open Thread: Thursday, August 29, 2024
Supreme Court Tells Students To Drop Dead. Oh, they’ll get around to considering it eventually, but we all know the result is pre-ordained: The Supreme Court has rejected the Biden administration’s emergency request to intervene in litigation that has blocked the president’s new student loan repayment program, leaving millions of borrowers in limbo. Biden launched […]
Delaware’s Most Intriguing Primaries Of 2024: #2–RD 15
Two in one day? Why? Because early voting has begun, and this story just HAS to be told to as many voters as possible. Besides, I finished it early. Pull up a chair, folks, this is gonna be a long one. Incumbent Val Longhurst, heretofore to be referred to as Our PAL Val, embodies everything […]
Song of the Day 8/28: Panda Bear and Sonic Boom, “Gettin’ to the Point”
Maybe it’s the weather, maybe it’s the Kamala afterglow – today calls for some sunshine pop. Panda Bear (Noah Lennox) is part of the Animal Collective, a group of songwriter/producers who work together, separately and in various combinations on projects that usually bring an electronic/techno sensibility to pop, or vice versa. Sonic Boom (Peter Kember) […]
AG Jennings Goes There!
It’s where anybody who is paying attention should have already gone. Bethany Hall-Long has engaged in so much illegal and unethical activity that any reasonable person should realize that she absolutely should not be our next Governor. This unethical activity pretty much started when she first ran for office and (a) her husband stole her […]

Count on Donald Trump to screw the unscrewable pooch. Seeking to dispel the accurate charge that he has contempt for the U.S military and those who join it, Trump’s team took him to Arlington National Cemetery for a photo op proving that he does too like the troops, even if he calls them “suckers.” Just […]
Delaware’s Most Intriguing Primaries Of 2024: #3–RD 14
Yesterday, I wrote this: If you’ve been following the ‘most intriguing’ races series, you will note an overriding theme to most of the races–there’s a Delaware Way candidate and there’s someone challenging the Delaware Way. The Delaware Way in Dover reflects the insider casual corruption of Pete Schwartzkopf, Our PAL Val Longhurst, and their enablers. […]
Flag of the Month: The 51-Star Flag of Puerto Rican Statehood
Guest post by Jason 330 “USA! USA! USA!” I’m not a big “USA!” chant guy, but when this chant was raised at the DNC, I loved it. I loved how Harris ripped the flag away from the party of insurrection and poked them in the eye with the golden eagle. No. If fascism comes to […]
Song of the Day 8/27: Oasis, “Some Might Say”
Guest post by Nathan Arizona So the rumors were confirmed this morning. The battling Gallagher brothers will bring back Oasis after 15 restless years and separate solo careers. It would have been hard to turn down the estimated $50 million the tour will bring. Noel’s on the hook for a huge divorce settlement, but there […]
DL Open Thread Tuesday, Aug. 27, 2024
The wind at the Democratic Party’s back might get a little stronger as the election approaches. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell signaled he will cut interest rates in response to falling inflation stats and soft job-creation numbers. If elections are still about the economy – highly doubtful when society is menaced by the Coalition of […]
