Coons should step down after being caught with Ivanka Trump & Kelly-Ann Conway
Editors Note: Imagine you were a member of a jury in a high profile corruption case and you spent an evening break partying with the very people connected to the corruption. Do you think you’d recuse yourself from that jury, or do you think you would be thrown off?
Coons should do the right thing and resign amid the scandal following the discovery that he socializes with and allows himself to be lobbied by Republicans very close to President Trump.
The “Democratic” Senator from Delaware, long a supporter of Anti-Gay “prayer breakfast’s” has now been caught on camera engaging in “inappropriate interactions” with inner-circle members of the Trump brain trust at the notorious Alfalfa Club..
Bad enough on its own, but to allow himself, a jury member in the Senate Trial of Donald Trump, to be lobbied by members of the Trump family at at the residence of a Billionaire is beyond comprehension.
Pictures published by the UK’s Daily Mail show Coons engaging in what many are diplomatically calling “activity unbecoming of a Democratic Senator”

It’s Official – Bloodthirsty Warmonger Coons, an Iran deal skeptic
I really don’t get why Coons wants to build up this image as a fucking bloodthirsty warmonger. Are their really that many warmonger-y Delawareians clamoring for our delegation to be on the forefront of undermining the Obama administration’s very successful diplomatic engagement with Iran?
We get it Senator. You’re a big swinging dick. A real tough guy. Israel über alles, and all of that. Is that what you want to hear?
Kudos to Senator Carper, for once.
Today a foreign leader will interfere in the political affairs of the United States, and Senator Tom Carper has decided that he will not be part of it, thank you very much.
Sen. Tom Carper of Delaware will join about 40 Democrats in boycotting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s controversial speech to Congress on Tuesday. Carper called the timing of Netanyahu’s speech “wholly inappropriate,” given that the prime minister is up for re-election in two weeks. He and the other Democrats say House Speaker John Boehner broke protocol by inviting Netanyahu without consulting with the White House.
“I cannot imagine an occasion when a U.S. president would invite a foreign leader — even one from some of our closest allies like France, Germany or Canada — to address Congress on the eve of elections in his or her home country,” Carper said in a statement. “Furthermore, this visit came together by completely bypassing President Obama and his administration, which breaks our country’s protocol for visiting heads of state and stands to weaken U.S.-Israel relations.”
I was afraid the good Senator was just going to leave his list of reasons at that, and granted, they are good reasons. But the truest reason to be angry about that bastard Netanyahu’s speech has everything to do with the fact that he wants to scuttle any possible deal with Iran and he wants the United States to send more of our American children to die in defense of Israel in an invasion of Iran. And to his credit, Carper says that such direct interference into the foreign policy of the United States is one of his reasons.
What about Carney and Coons?
It isn’t often that Celia Cohen has a good point…
…but…
Coons has $3 mil in the bank, no opponent, and he keeps asking for money, anyway? Inquiring minds of irked Democrats want to know why
His campaign has basically taken over the Del Dem HQ building in New Castle, and they have been phonebanking every Wednesday and Saturday since February. In fact, I was in a meeting in the conference room at the Del Dem HQ last week, and I got a fundraising call from the Coons campaign from the next room over.
There is being prepared, and then there is overkill.
Coons votes for unwinable “humanitarian” war for dubious reasons
As a menber of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Chris Coons voted with a narrow majority to give President Barack Obama the authority to strike Syria. While the vote speaks for itself, the questions Coons posed to John Kerry and to General Dempsey reveal that fact that Coons believes that America is the world’s police force. Coons believes that the question facing Congress is not, should we police the world? But, since we are the world’s police, can we do that job well? This comes through very clearly in his first question to General Dempsey.
Can Our Super Bipartisan Congressional Delegation Help Avoid Perpetual Sequestration?
Now that de-funding Obamacare and destroying the credit worthiness of the United States have faded as the most important things EVER!, continuing to hobble the economy through austerity and perpetual sequestration is the thing that is going to give Boehner his Boner back. (If the Democrats go along with it.)
And let’s face it – they will.
A Picture’s Worth A Thousand Words
Too, too funny! Thanks, Mr. Knuckles, for the picture and the text! I find that this picture from Return Day sums up the whole Senate campaign in DE. The self congratulatory look on O’Donnell’s face (voice in her head = “I have the upper hand”). Chris Coons calmly assessing the situation (voice in head […]
Workforce Housing Roundup
Chuck Mulholland is doing yeomans work down below the canal. Hardly a day goes by that he isn’t mailing something out to a hundred people. He has been urging people to keep the comments section buzzing on the News Journal’s website, he has forced a statement out of Coons and Clark, and now he has […]
Socializing Loss: NCC Style
Developers are almost transparent. They don’t give a crap about the communities they create or destroy. Then only care about profit. So what is a developer to do if the real estate market tanks and they are left holding a bunch of land that can only have high-quality, low density single family homes built on […]
