Calling Out The Bob Ewell Party



By Zamboni

We cats were all set to post some video from Mayor Pete Buttigieg's FOX "News" town hall, which he held last night. But for once, Mayor Pete's luck seems to have run out — at least, temporarily. Because actor Jeff Daniels, appearing on Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC show this afternoon, just blew everybody and everything else away.

We've checked Twitter, and nearly all the comments directed at Daniels are rapturous. So far: Just wait until Benedict Donald figures out what he said. We hope Trump does go after him, though, because 1) it will just give Daniels's remarks more play, and 2) attacking Atticus Finch is never a good idea.

(Now that we think of it, Trump is holding one of his "shows" in Pennsylvania tonight. We never watch, of course, but we'll try to remember to check back to see who he's lashing at now.)

And the GOP? Daniels had some mighty harsh words for them, too. A bunch of spineless, greedy racists, and America would be better off if they all fell on their knives.

Daniels is right about everything. Especially this: America needs a Dan Ellsberg right now. Whoever that person may be, we have a message from Atticus himself: "In the name of God, do your duty." We cats PURR.
