Tidbits And Cat Treats: There's No Sun Up In The Sky Edition

By Baxter

The FBI has raided the office of the repulsive fixer Michael Cohen, potentially causing a lot of, um, stormy weather for Donald Trump. The Cohen coverage is threatening to blot out everything else, but we cats have a few words we'd like to get in edgewise.

Since the Cohen raid was held after a referral from Special Counsel Mueller, the first thing that popped into our head was this: Did the $130,000 come from a Russian oligarch?

Trump has called the raid "an attack on our country." Hilarious, when the real attack on our country was the subversion of the 2016 election. Projection!

In non-raid news, Florida's first Martian Governor has decided he wants to be Florida's first Martian Senator. The media are spinning this as good news for Republicans who want to send Democrat Bill Nelson out to pasture. We cats say, not so fast. Aside from his tightness with Trump, Rick Scott got elected and re-elected in two years (2010 and 2014) in which the Democratic vote was suppressed. Let's see how he does in a year when Florida Democrats are angry and motivated.

Finally, Laura Ingraham is still losing advertisers! Allstate is the latest to drop her. So the fervor of the Parkland kids is still going strong almost two months later. Has anyone told the new Republican candidate for Senate in Florida? Because David Hogg, for one, is heartily endorsing #notscott. We cats PURR.
