It’s a tired day, here in the CatBox, but I did get a nap this morning. My meeting with Diana was routine, except that Trump* was speaking when she arrived. I gave her a barf bag. She appreciated it. WWWendy is coming tonight to destink the rancid TomCat, change my pain patch, do lots of gooping, and help with chores. Close the lid before you flush, so the Republicans don’t get away!

US Deaths: 181,204
Plus all the GOP Plague murder victims Republicans are hiding from us.
Deplorable RNC Take:
When I got up for supper the Republican National Convention was already underway. Dressing, which I have to do in bed, takes me about 15 minutes, so I tried to count the lies. I failed. Actually, I gave up, when I had counted 75 before I finished dressing.
It was truly ugly. They called Trump* Virus ‘China Virus’ and praised Trump* for the magnificent way he has protected us from it. They set their platform as whatever their God damn Fuhrer wants. Do you remember the McCloskys, those vile racists, who got a ‘Republicans on Parade for threatening BLM protesters with guns from their front yard? They were the stars of the show, behind Trump*. They said Biden and the “Democrat Party” want to do away with the suburbs, implying that black people would move in and make them slums.
Here is a complete summary of everything that occurred.

Short Takes:
From Reuters: In a claim likely to intensify the controversy surrounding one of the most influential figures in the American Christian conservative movement, a business partner of Jerry Falwell Jr has come forward to say he had a years-long sexual relationship involving Falwell’s wife and the evangelical leader.
Giancarlo Granda says he was 20 when he met Jerry and Becki Falwell while working as a pool attendant at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel in March 2012. Starting that month and continuing into 2018, Granda told Reuters that the relationship involved him having sex with Becki Falwell while Jerry Falwell looked on.
Granda showed Reuters emails, text messages and other evidence that he says demonstrate the sexual nature of his relationship with the couple, who have been married since 1987. “Becki and I developed an intimate relationship and Jerry enjoyed watching from the corner of the room,” Granda said in an interview. Now 29, he described the liaisons as frequent – “multiple times per year” – and said the encounters took place at hotels in Miami and New York, and at the Falwells’ home in Virginia.
This is typical of the hypocrisy of Republican pseudo-Christians, the opposite of real authentic Christians. FYI, Falwell now refuses to resign from Liberty University. RESIST!!

Jeff could not be more spot-on about Trump’s* GOP Gestapo! Oregon leads the way! I’m so glad I worked on his campaign in 2008, the year he won his seat from Oregon’s last Republican Senator, Gordon “Goose Step” Smith! RESIST!!
From YouTube (a blast of protest): “Like a Brick Thrown in Troubled Water” – a Roy Zimmerman song parody
Isn’t that the truth?!!? Kudos to left-wing protesters! RESIST!!
