Merry Early Christmas, Hunter Biden

By Hubie and Bertie

Events occur, circumstances alter, and people change their minds. For Joe Biden, November 5 resolved the question of whether he would pardon his son Hunter before leaving office. Of course he would. As one of our favorite Twitter accounts pointed out, "We live in a world where you pardon the kid, not because you can but because you have to."

So we cats have a few things to say.

To Trumpsters who are heading for their fainting couches — Hey, team, elections have consequences.  You can scream about the Hunter pardon all you want. But it will have exactly zero political impact, especially considering the horrors you're about to inflict on the country next year.

To the earnest doubters on our side — Get a grip. Sadly, we have to stop thinking in terms of the way things used to be.

To the Great Forgetters — Benedict Donald pardoned reprobates like Mike Flynn, soon-to-be-ambassador Charles Kushner, Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Eddie Gallagher, and Steve Bannon. Hunter Biden, with all his problems, is a one-hundred-percent better man than any of them.

To the Morning Schmoes — We don't give a damn what you think about this, pro or con. Or about anything, for that matter.

To President Biden — We're happy for you, and hope that you and your family can find some peace and joy together this holiday season. That's our angel side speaking. The devil side, which we always love to indulge in, hopes that you do lots more Dark-Brandon-type stuff between now and January 20. Give 'em hell, DB! We cats PURR.
