Joe Biden was already having a pretty good day. After testing negative for COVID a second time, he was sprung from isolation at the White House and zoomed off to Delaware to be with Jill again. Tomorrow it's back to work — but there's still more to celebrate.
Yep, the Inflation Reduction Act just passed the Senate, and we cats are simply amazed at how the Republicans keep writing our 2022 campaign ads for us. Thanks, guys! They've given us such priceless gems as:
- Chuck Grassley whining on Twitter that he couldn't attend his annual family reunion because he had to be in Washington instead
- Baby Marco Rubio tweeting out his canceled flight to DC, big mad that he had to do his job
- Baby Marco again, apparently still furious, going full-bore anti-Semite on the Senate floor
- Forty-three Republicans ostentatiously voting against the $35 cap on insulin, stripping it from the bill (guess they don't have any constituents who are diabetic)
- The entire Republican caucus voting against a bill called "Inflation Reduction" — what a gift!
With everything that Team Biden and Chuck Schumer have accomplished — CHIPS, the PACT Act, the American Rescue Plan, Violence Against Women Act, record job creation, gas prices falling, and now this — just imagine what Democrats can do when John Fetterman, Tim Ryan, Val Demings, Mike Franken, Cheri Beasley and Mandela Barnes get to the Senate. (Did we leave anyone out? Apologies if we did.) We cats PURR.
