Tidbits And Cat Treats: Insurrection Edition

By Baxter

When we cats were kittens, we lived for a time in a townhouse on Capitol Hill, right down the street from (GURK!) the Republican National Committee. It dawned on us yesterday afternoon that if were were still there, DC police would have evacuated us.

Watching the MAGAts raping and pillaging the Capitol building was traumatizing. To get over it, let's focus on some good news instead:

Who would willingly read a book by Josh Hawley? It's a mystery — but thanks to Hawley's lead role in Wednesday's seditious assault, Simon & Schuster just pulled the plug on him. Now, that's cancel culture we can get behind! Guess you'll have to self-publish, Josh.

Also in the "Actions Have Consequences" category: The calls for Benedict Donald's immediate banishment are mounting. Speaker Pelosi has told Vice President "Fly On The Head" Poonce to give Trump the 25th, or the House will impeach. (Of course, it's unclear if anyone's left in the Cabinet at this point to get the 25th rolling.) Republicans have joined the chorus, too. No wonder Trump released that surreal hostage video tonight.

Congress certified Joe Biden's win this morning, and stocks went up. Way up.

Finally, and most important — whenever you think about yesterday's events and get upset and outraged and wonder how it happened all over again, just remember: The chairs of the Congressional committees that investigate it will all be Democrats. Thanks, Georgia! Laughing our Ossoff, as Kellyanne Conway would say. We cats PURR.
