Want to cheer up? Here are some pieces of news that will brighten anyone's mood.
Stacey Abrams is running for Governor of Georgia again. And did you know that Democrats recently flipped more than 30 seats in statewide municipal elections there? The state is getting bluer and bluer.
Joe and Jill Biden will attend the Kennedy Center Honors this weekend, restoring a celebratory Washington tradition that Benedict Donald trashed. Among the honorees: Bette Midler and Joni Mitchell. Yay! (But Mr. President: No need to do the same for the White House Correspondents' Dinner, just sayin'.)
A GOP canvasser in Wayne County who voted against certifying Biden's win in Michigan has died — you guessed it, of COVID-19. Good. He just freed up an ICU bed for someone who takes the pandemic seriously.
Republican Governor Charlie Baker of Massachusetts will not run for re-election, prompting the Cook Political Report to change the rating of the race from "Solid R" to "Lean D." (And they changed Georgia from "Lean R" to "Toss-Up," in case you're wondering.)
Finally, unlike the infamous Kyle Rittenhouse outcome, a set of actual legal consequences for shooting people to death could be in the offing: The 15-year-old Oxford, Michigan, killer of four high school classmates will be charged as an adult (which could mean life in prison), and his Trumpy parents might face unsecured-weapon charges. We cats say, LOCK THEM UP. And we PURR.
