The Trumpsters must be super-mad that James Comey has sold 600,000 books in a week. Which has us wondering: Who will ghostwrite you-know-who's memoirs? We think Tony Schwartz will be unavailable. While we check, here are a few other stories that are getting our attention today.
Ye gods, but the allegations against "Ronny" Jackson are alarming. But even worse is the picture they paint of a White House staff getting prescriptions dispensed willy-nilly. Are the Trumpsters more than just venal and incompetent? Are they also constantly drugged up? Please, somebody, investigate!
We're not forgetting, by the way, that Jackson is completely unqualified to run the VA. He could be the best doctor and the best boss of the WHMU ever, but he still has no administrative experience. Republican support appears to be collapsing — but if Jackson's brave staffers hadn't come forward, would it be?
Meanwhile, there's a lot of suspicious crap happening on social media today. We cats are refusing to engage, because we're convinced that it's Vladimir Putin and Russian bots trying to foment discord among Democrats. Please, everyone, don't fall for this stuff. We need to be united going into the midterms.
Finally, on that note: It's interesting that Putin and the bots ramped up on the day after yesterday's special election in Arizona. Yes, the Republican candidate won that race — but only by five points, in a heavily GOP district that went solid Trump in 2016. Somebody out there is worried, folks. Stay focused. We cats PURR.
