It’s a crappy day here in the CatBox.  I have severe Republicitis and cannot poop.  My Republicitis pain and cancer pain are both severe.  Yesterday WWWendy gave me a shower, and that exacerbated both.  My Hospice Nurse is coming this morning to adjust my pain meds.  Pray that I get the relief I need.  I feel like something I forgot to bury.

It’s another crappy day here in the CatBox.  I Republicated, but only once, not three times.  I’m very tired, but WWWendy is coming to give me a shower this morning.  I feel much too much pain and need an increase in my pain meds.  Pray that my Providence Hospice Nurse comes to do that.  Happy Hump Day to us all!

It’s a way tired day, here in the CatBox.  I slept most of the morning until I Republicated so intensely that I filled the toilet with virtually every Senator but Bought Bitch Bitch Midnight Moscow Mitch!  Seriously!  It was Republicational!  WWWendy is coming a little after nine.  I hope you join me in an Oh God, it’s Monday Day!

It’s a very sore and tired day here in the CatBox.  I took as shower and and had all the medical attention I needed to my legs and back.  I’m especially proud to announce that, once again, I Republicated all by myself.  However, it wasn’t just a Republican.  I’m sure I trapped at least three Senators in that pot.  I did not get BBMMM, but I may have gotten a Congressional Committee too!  Today, I plan a lazy day, and God knows I need one.  Please join me, and have a blessed Sunday!

It’s a busy time and the beginning of a new month here in the CatBox.  Yesterday I slept most of the early part of the day.  WWWendy stopped by, and I found that she had already done most of my EOM paperwork.  This morning I woke up and tried to Republicate all by myself with no suppository or any other external help.  Would you believe that there was actually a Republican in the bowl!??!  I slammed the lid down fast so it couldn’t get away, but I think congratulations are in order.  Have a wonder weekend!

It’s a busy day here in the CatBox.  I had to take an Oxycodone this morning to supplement the methadone.  I try to avoid that whenever I can.It’s been three days since the last time I Republicated, and I’m not happy with that.  Happy Hump Day!

From Daily Kos: House Democratic legislators including the chair of the chamber’s Veterans’ Affairs committee have reintroduced legislation that would block the deportation of noncitizen U.S. military veterans, and allow eligible deported veterans to return home to the U.S. Because federal immigration officials don’t follow even their own policy, it’s unknown exactly how many veterans have been kicked out of the U.S. over the years. Advocates have estimated the number to be around 230.

“It’s a disgrace that veterans are falling through the cracks of our broken immigration system and being deported,” Veterans’ Affairs chair Mark Takano said, who reintroduced the bill with fellow Californian Juan Vargas and Arizona’s Raúl Grijalva. “Deported veterans are exiled from the country that they call home and that they fought to defend, and they face significant barriers to access the benefits they are entitled to and eligible for under the law. Congress must act and fix this injustice, and passing this comprehensive legislative package can help us achieve that.”

I fully agree with this legislation. To deport veterans who have put themselves in harm’s way to defend this nation is so criminal, it’s … Republican!  RESIST the Republican Reich!!

From NY Times: It was a familiar play by Donald J. Trump: lashing out at his enemies and trying to raise money from it.

The former president this week escalated a standoff over the Republican Party’s financial future, blasting party leaders and urging his backers to send donations to his new political action committee — not to the institutional groups that traditionally control the G.O.P.’s coffers.

“No more money for RINOS,” he said in a statement released on Monday by his bare-bones post-presidential office, referring to Republicans In Name Only. He directed donors to his own website instead.

Trump** wasted no time in getting back to sheeple fleecing. Sheeple are so dumb that it’s BAAA-A-A-A-A-AAD!!  RESIST the Republican Reich!!

It’s a very tired day here in the cat box.  For the last week I had a pants load of long appointments setting up my hospice services, and all that chair time exacerbated my back pain.  My hospice nurse adjusted my methadone dose to my new level of pain.  That was too high for my normal level of activity, causing all the side effects.  I told her that’s what I thought, and she agreed to put me back to 10 mg methadone every eight hours.  I’m feeling better.  Here is my new schedule.  This is what I said I would explain today.  Monday is a Wendy day, usually in the evening.  Thursday a shower aide comes around 9 AM.  Then Store to Door delivers groceries between 11:30 AM and Noon.  That will be a rough day.  Saturday morning is a Wendy day.  My hospice nurse will come every two weeks on Monday.  Then I will have occasional visits from Jo, the chaplain.  I like her.  She is an authentic Christian and loves the definitions for Republicitis and Republicosis.  So except for the initial confusion everything is doing pretty well.  Nevertheless, it will take a few days for me to catch up on sleep.  May you be well and truly blessed this Sunday!

From Daily Kos:

…”It will be a Democratic Party Armageddon in 2022 if we sit here on our butts and say, ‘Oh, we’re sorry, we’re not as determined to get our agenda passed as Republicans were,'” Sen. Jeff Merkley, the Oregon Democrat spearheading filibuster reform efforts, told the Post. He’s right. With the Supreme Court seemingly ready to gut the remains of the Voting Rights Act and 43 states considering some 253 voter restriction bills, it could be Armageddon for Democrats. If the elections reforms passed by the House don’t become law, Democratic voters will be blocked from the polls. If President Biden’s critical agenda to address the pandemic, economic inequality, climate change, immigration—everything!—is stymied, Democratic voters won’t want to go to the polls in 2022.

Biden sure as hell recognizes that. That’s why the former longtime member of the Senate is open to filibuster reform. “One thing that is nonnegotiable is him delivering for the American people,” Emmy Ruiz, the White House political director, told the Post. “The number one priority here is to get this agenda, this bold agenda, passed through Congress.” Another White House official said the “‘strategy is adjusting every single day,’ reiterating Biden’s position that the filibuster is not sacrosanct while the agenda is.”…

Jeff could not be more correct. Oregon leads the way!  RESIST the Republican Reich!!
