Slava Ukraini


By Zamboni

Oooooh! Vlad the Invader is so upset at Canada, he's banned all sitting members of the House of Commons from entering Russia. Maybe we should write "our" MP, Marc Miller from Montreal, and ask him if he's had to cancel his summer travel plans. What a joke.

Vlad is mad because President Zelenskyy of Ukraine addressed the Canadian Parliament yesterday, and they gave him a three-minute standing ovation. Today, he spoke to Congress. Let's face it, Vlad is mostly miffed because Zelenskyy is the biggest world celebrity since Barack Obama, and we all know what Putin thought of Obama.

Meanwhile, the Republican Party is taking pains to applaud Zelenskyy, express support, and wear the colors of the Ukrainian flag. (Even Marjorie Taylor Greene was in yellow today.) But it's a farce: Every GOP Senator but Willard Mitt Romney voted to acquit Benedict Donald for withholding Congressionally approved military aid to Ukraine unless Zelenskyy agreed to dig up (nonexistent) dirt on Hunter and Joe Biden. See, Republicans? People remember.

We cats were watching MTG closely today, and so were the interwebs. When Zelenskyy was introduced, she stood, but appeared too busy grabbing her cellphone to participate in the ovation. When he finished his speech, she applauded very tepidly — hands at her waist, and then clasping each other so she could look occupied. But at least she clapped. In the Canadian Parliament, interim Conservative Party leader Candice Bergen didn't even bother.

How many children do the Russians have to kill? How many bread lines do the Russians need to mow down, or hospital staff to terrorize, before these so-called "right-to-life" Republicans quit their adoration of Vlad? They are stained by Putin for all eternity, and we cats HISS.
