Going To Town On Town Halls

By Miss Kubelik

We cats have been tough on Elizabeth Warren's Presidential ambitions in the past, and while she's still not in our personal top tier of 2020 Democrats, we have to admit that she's gotten our (favorable) attention lately.

She's rolled out some detailed policy proposals, which of course we'd expect since she's the wonky type. But she's also been less college professor and pretty in-your-face — the latest example being the bitch-slap she just gave FOX "News." Great stuff!

With other declared candidates accepting FOX's town hall invitations, Warren has said she'll have none of it. Calling Trump TV "a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists," she rejected her FOX town hall invite with a snippy, "Hard pass."

Good for her. We duly note that other candidates, specifically Harris, Booker and Castro, also haven't accepted town halls at FOX— but Warren's spot-on "no thanks" was very cathartic. We cats PURR.

P.S. For a rawer but equally satisfying take on Warren's FOX "News" smackdown, read this.
