Okay. All these celebrities we care about need to stop dying. Sidney Poitier? Really? Yes, we know he was 94 — but like Betty White, he was so universally loved that everyone's reaction is "WHAT? NO WAY! WHAT HAPPENED?"
We're thinking a lot of dear Poitier friend Harry Belafonte, who must especially be feeling this loss. Throwing purrs in your direction, Mr. B.
Meanwhile, here are some other stories that are getting our attention:
No sympathy for the unvaxxed couple who both died of COVID, holding hands. The New York Post has tried to position this as a romance for the ages. Sorry, team. It's a portrait of utterly avoidable stupidity and loss. We feel for the healthcare workers who had to care for these idiots, and we will not be contributing to their GoFundMe page.
Rafael Cruz bowed and scraped to Tucker Carlson last night for correctly calling the sacking of the Capitol on January 6 a terrorist attack. Is the ability to grovel a qualification to be President? Surely Benedict Donald proved otherwise when he met with Putin in Helsinki. We guess we just don't understand the Republican definition of manhood.
Just a reminder that Merrick Garland successfully prosecuted both Timothy McVeigh and the Unabomber without a single leak while he was building his cases.
Finally, we need to salute two feisty Democratic women who, in the spirit of Joe Biden's in-your-GOP-face speech yesterday, have just humiliated a couple of idiotic Republican men: New York Governor Kathy Hochul and Florida Ag Commissioner Nikki Fried. Hochul smacked back Nassau County executive Bruce Blakeman for trying to circumvent the state's mask mandate in schools, while Fried forced the ever-despicable Governor Ron DeSantis to admit that he let a million stockpiled COVID tests expire while his constituents waited in hours-long lines. Both Blakeman and DeSantis were left sputtering and looking, shall we say, flaccid and impotent. We cats love it, and we PURR.
