Misfires

By Hubie and Bertie

This book keeps getting more and more hilarious. You guessed it: Kevin McCarthy announced today that he will be leaving Congress at the end of this year. Not running for re-election, not even hanging around until his constituents can elect someone to replace him. next November.

In other words, a typical Republican who doesn't give a damn about the people he allegedly serves.

So, the current state of the so-called "Guns"? Cantor: Defeated by a teabagger in his Republican primary. Ryan: Terrorized and fled. McCarthy: Terrorized, humiliated, deposed and fled.

It will be fun to watch the GOP's jungle primary in Kev's district and how much money they end up spending (that they'd probably prefer to spend elsewhere in 2024). But as for filling the vacancy between now and then, we hope Governor Gavin Newsom takes a page from Ron DeSantis's book after Democratic Congressman Alcee Hastings died. Dear Gavin: No rush to call a special election, hon. We cats PURR.
