Still Waiting

By Zamboni

Well, folks, it looks like we're going to have to find a way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day without a Trump indictment — at least, not today.

However, Benedict Donald should not plan on spending a relaxing weekend. The Manhattan DA's office reportedly is meeting with Secret Service and law enforcement to prep for the indictment, expected (perhaps? probably?) next week.

It's all uncharted waters, because a former President has never been formally charged with crimes before. But when you think about it, it makes sense that Alvin Bragg's team would want to have all its logistical ducks in a row before they lower the boom.

And this is just the Stormy Daniels case. Officials are still pursuing possible charges in the stolen-documents and January 6 cases at what seems on the surface to be at a snail's pace, but which we suspect is really breakneck speed. It's pretty impressive when you consider how complicated and fraught these eventual charges will be.

So today's post is your regular reminder that although we're all ready to pop the cork on our first-indictment champagne, these Trump investigations are not a reality show, and they will be ready when they are ready. We cats wish everyone defending democracy and the rule of law well, and we PURR.
