Hang In There, Joe

By Hubie and Bertie

Some innocent soul on Bluesky tonight said that Jake Tapper should cancel his anti-Biden book tour now that the former President has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. HA! Are you kidding?!?!?!? Jake Tapper is thrilled. Now, every story about Biden's prostate health can include a handy reference to Tapper's stupid book. Ka-ching for Jake! This is what journalism has sunk to.

Here's what we're thinking tonight. In September 2016, Benedict Donald promised to release his full medical records. We're all still waiting. Why aren't reporters constantly asking about that? Trump is continuing to say and do bizarre things — walking unsteadily, posting odd screeds on social media, acting like "groceries" is a new concept — and the press gives him a pass. But Dark Brandon has to prove every second of every day that he's mentally and physically competent. We'll never understand it.

Biden and Harris were a terrific team, and they did great things for our country. They rescued the US from Trump's COVID depression, created millions of jobs, gave thousands student debt relief, brought us $35 insulin, championed clean energy, put Ketanji Brown Jackson on the Supreme Court, and — to the delight of our net worth — presided over a booming stock market. Thanks to them, we were proud to be Americans again. We cats salute the old dude from Delaware who made us feel that way, and we send him all our love and support. And we PURR.
