Mystery Tour


By Baxter

Who guided Marjorie Taylor Greene on her alleged tour of the Holocaust Memorial Museum? We cats would like to know that person's take on the QAnon-crazy Congresswoman's de-Nazification — and whether he or she thinks Greene's mask-comparison apology today was sincere.

What parts of the museum appeared to affect Greene the most? The artifacts from the Warsaw ghetto? The replica of the "Arbeit Macht Frei" sign? The audio narratives? The shaken testimony of American soldiers who liberated the camps? Did Greene learn who Anne Frank was? (We're really not sure she knew before.)

In her statement today, Greene couldn't resist prattling on about the dangers of socialism. (Maybe someone should explain to her that Hitler's National Socialist party wasn't the same as the socialists she and the right wing scream about today.) Despite everything, she still had to take a final shot at the face-mask rule in the House — insisting that "increased government control" is dangerous. Well, Marge, so is COVID.

And it's probably lost on Greene that the US has just passed the 600,000 mark on coronavirus deaths — one-tenth of the number of people murdered by the Nazis. Her hero, that other mass killer Benedict Donald, must be so proud. We cats HISS.
