Yes, we know — we cats were complaining about a lack of snow a couple of weeks ago, and now the situation has been somewhat rectified. A storm hit this past Sunday-Monday, and now here comes another one tomorrow night. Red screens on the weather channel mean business! We could get six to 10 inches in Montreal.
Similarly, a blizzard of convictions appears to be descending on the January 6 insurrectionists.
The four Oath Keepers found guilty of seditious conspiracy have been joined by Richard Barnett, the Arkansas fool who helped trash Nancy Pelosi's office and was famously photographed with his foot propped up on her desk. This verdict is particularly satisfying. We cats have been known to put our feet on things where they don't belong, so that's not the biggest reason we found Barnett repulsive. But he deserves to be hauled off to the hoosegow because:
- He entered the Capitol with a stun gun in his belt. This was not a guy who was there for innocent reasons, however much he might protest that he was just looking for a bathroom.
- He left a vulgar note calling the greatest Speaker of the House in our lifetimes a "bitch."
- He said he couldn't get a fair trial in the District of Columbia because... well, he might as well have said outright that it was because so many people there are Black.
His whining is just more MAGA victimhood, and we're sick of it. When you tally up all his offenses — disorderly conduct, obstructing an official proceeding, entering a restricted building with a dangerous weapon, theft of government property — he could get up to 47 years in jail. Oh, heck, let's round it up to 50, shall we? We cats HISS.
