It’s I tired day here in the CatBox. I haven’t visited the throne since 3:00 AM, si I hope the Imodium caught up to the Republicosis. The Republican Trump* defense team finishes today. Are you as sick of those sphincters as I am? Have a great day!
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 3:36 (average 5:41). To do it, click here. How did you do?

Short Takes:
From The New Yorker: Donald J. Trump has “no intention whatsoever” of having John Bolton’s book read aloud to him, Trump confirmed on Monday.
Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said that his daughter, Ivanka Trump, had obtained a draft manuscript of the Bolton book and had offered to read it aloud to him “like she does with all of the other books,” Trump said.
“She reads the books to me slowly and stops when there’s a long word to tell me what it means,” Trump said. “But I told her that the Bolton book was the last book in the world that I wanted to hear.”
Dang Andy! Isn’t it a shame Senate Republicans will imitate their criminal Fuhrer? RESIST!!
From YouTube (Vox Channel): How Iran’s Soleimani became a US target
This is a well presented, unbiased history lesson to help you better understand the region, while allowing you the freedom to make your own judgement without propaganda. RESIST!!
From YouTube (a blast from Lona’s past): The Joker
Ah… Lona’s memories! Thanks Lona! RESIST!!
Vote Blue!!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Cartoon: Shudder and gulp!
NYer: ugh! Can one even imagine? lol, Andy.
Vox: This did not have to happen. To me, there’s lots of questions on the killing Gen. Soleimani . Anything that dt does and says re: this, and other global decisions is not in the interests of the people, nor do I trust his word(s). Here and abroad. Just my opinion. Good video, thanks for it, and passing on.
BFTP: Ahhh…SM band. Love it!!
Yes, I agree. I’m tuckered out listening to these nincompoops talk through their teeth and lie. I can’t listen to them, sorry! Glad to read that you haven’t visited the ‘head’ in awhile, that’s good. Get your rest, take good care, and Thanks, Tom.
This just in: “Bolton is part of the cover up, (book leak). He sat on this info (evidence of criminality) and only leaked it now because there’s no way in ‘H’ that GOP senators w/make him testify. Bolton is the self serving traitor to honor DT’s omerta instead of the American Constitution.” ~ Polly S. ~
2. “They (R’s) were only blindsided by the fact that their coverup has been exposed.” ~ Bev H. ~
3. “Robert Ray, dt’s defense attorney just informed us that his son is now ‘working for trump’ as a Major in the Space Force. US Service members work for the United States, not for a President.” ~ Maria H. ~
4. re: #3. “Quid Pro Quo anyone?” ~ G. C. ~
5. “btw…Trump waived Executive Privilege when he called Bolton a liar.” ~ Leeta C. ~

Glad you’re feeling better, and hope you continue to impreve.
Cartoon – Su-u-u-ure he did. (/s)
TNY – I don’t believe it. Ivanka may be able to read (a little), but explain long words? NEVER!
Vox – None of that justifies assassination. Besides the fact that assassination often boomerangs – which looks to be the case here.
Past – Clowns and jokers yesterday, and a joker today. I sense a pattern here.
‘Toon: Damn, do not give Orange Shit head any ides, he already loves him every tyrant he’s ever heard of!
TNY: What Joanne said!
Vox: A good presentation.
Steve Miller: I like that song!
Yeah, that sounds like Rethuglicans. They preach “family values” and “sanctity of marriage” when a lot of them have had more than one spouse. How many Democrats have been to the altar more than once?
Cartoon: He did???
TNY: Crazy…I know tRump wouldn’t make it past the first page. I agree with Joanne.
Vox: Appreciate the information it spoke of. Just too bad that the Iranian’s had to come back with their missile attack, injuring the 50 US military personnel who are now diagnosed with concussions and traumatic brain injuries.
BFTP: Big fan of Steve Miller. Great song.
Hope you’re still doing better today. Take care. Thanks TomCat
I’m not watching closely yet that defense team is giving even me a hard time holding my food down. Do Democrats get a rebate on Immodium?
3:09 Didn’t we just do this one?
Cartoon: If they call “beheading” a way to handle women then Republicans are right.
TNY: On Ivanka’s day off, White House staff is asked to summarize a book into three bullet points and read that to Trump. But that approach may lead to a night of never-ending bedroom tweets
Vox: Thanks for a good history lesson.
BFTP:
Same tulip, different angle.
Thanks and sticky Hump Day Hugs to all!
