Meidas Touch
Sound and Fury Messaging has two –
The Lincoln Project has two (it must be close to the election. Well, my ballot is in the mail today because yesterday was a federal holiday.)
Robert Reich – From his studio, or wherever he creates, to God’s screen. I’m not picky about how we do it (except that our methods should hild up legally), but we must do something – if we win – and this is why this election is so important!
And I’m even saving a couple, hoping for a slower day. But I can’t leave Keith out.

Really American – their take on the Woodward revelations
Meidas Touch – Doing its best to pin the pedophile label where it belongs.
The Lincoln Project – Regarding the $800 million which has “disappeared.”
Teaser from Lester Holt’s Vindman interview. You can also read about it.
Robert Reich – Racism is profitable. For years I have been predicting another French Revolution-style event here. It has not happened, and I am starting to see why it won’t. France did not have a large minority of black and/or brown people whom they could exploit to divide the poor and pit them against each other. So there was much less preventing those people from uniting as one. How are we going to surmount the fact that we do?
Beau defines the term “failed state” and shows why it is being applied.
Just to let everyone know, I am finding that if I put these threads up in the early to mid afternoon, I can catch more when they are newer. So that’s why.
American Bridge – Speaks for itself.
Don Winslow – He is really good at getting down to the bottom of things
Meidas Touch – Hang on to this one – in view of the report of a whistleblower in DHS claiming Wolf and Cuccinelli both ordered staff to lie about how much violence is coming from where.
The Lincoln Project has two – the first one still on Trump* and the military.
plus one on Lindsey Graham – Ouch!
Robert Reich – “Law and Order” – I figured TC would not have time to post and comment on this, Not sure what to say except that the Reich on the left is right – again.
This is longish (~5 minutes) but it is worth everyone’s time. A hanky or tissue may be needed – in case one gets a sense watching it of how critically important this is.

I love it when cartoonists tweet out their work so I can embed it. And I still love David Horsey, but when Luckovich nails it, he REALLY nails it.

It’s another tired day, here in the CatBox. I overslept again this morning, but I still took a morning nap. Then I overslept from that too, so I’m running somewhat behind schedule. Last night I got to tell WWWendy she’s full of shit. She used my toilet and plugged it. That’s what happens when you get too many Republicans in one place. Fortunately she unplugged it too. Happy Hump Day!

RNC Deplorables Take:
Night two of the RNC was more of the same.
I was particularly taken with the abject hypocrisy of der Reichsminister der Staat, Mike Pompeo. Do you remember how Republicans screamed when the Chicks (then Dixie Chicks) criticized GW ChickenHawk, Fuhrer of the failed Fourth Reich, for lying about his failed attempt to conquer Iraq for oil and profit? Then Republicans claimed that all politics stops at the water’s edge. But last night, Pompeo delivered his totally political message, praising Trump’s* failed foreign policy, from Jerusalem. Republican pseudo-Christians (the opposite of real authentic Christians) loved it, but it was unethical at best, if not criminal.
The following is a summary of everything that occurred:
Short Takes:
From USA Today: Hurricane Laura, which grew to a Category 3 storm early Wednesday, is forecast to bring “potentially catastrophic” storm surge, fierce winds and flash flooding to eastern Texas and Louisiana on Wednesday night and early Thursday, the National Hurricane Center says.
More than half a million people were ordered to evacuate as the storm approached, including the Texas cities of Beaumont, Galveston and Port Arthur.
Even if Laura reaches Category 4 strength during the day on Wednesday, forecasters still expect the storm to hit near the Texas-Louisiana border as a Category 3 hurricane, as it’s predicted to weaken slightly before landfall. The storm has already intensified a “remarkable” amount in the past 24 hours, the storm center says.
Laura is growing in size, too. “Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles,” forecasters said.
Aren’t we lucky that criminal Fuhrer Trump and the Republican Reich stole FEMA’s operating funds? The poor that are devastated by this Republicane are SOL. But what will Republicans raid to pay for slightest storm damage to the property of billionaires: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, aid to starving children? If you’re in Laura’s path, please tale care. RESIST!!
From YouTube (Robert Reich Channel): Trump’s 40 Biggest Broken Promises Revealed
Of course the Reich on the left, Robert Reich, is right, while the Reich on the right, the Republican Reich, don’t care how wrong they are. They’re too busy having wet dreams over criminal Fuhrer Trump*. They chose him to be their beloved Fifth Reich Fuhrer, because he reflects the ideas, values and policies of the Republican Reich better than anyone since the original Fuhrer, who lead the Third Reich! But how did Robert limit it to just 40? RESIST!!

It’s a hot day (high 80°s), here at the CatBox. Yesterday my visit with Diana was routine. She’s a very nice lady, who pulls no punches and tells it like it is, but does so with compassion. Tomorrow is my first Pembrolizumab infusion at the hospital. I’ll leave after lunch on a TriMet Lift van, and WWWendy will pick me up between 4:30 and 5:00 PM. When we get home, it will be a regular WWWendy day with TomCat destinking, patch changing, food gooping, and chores. So I’ll be taking a morning nap to rest as much as I can first. Therefore, please expect no more than a Personal Update from me. Assuming that I have no adverse reactions, I’ll be back in the saddle on Thursday. Tuesday is flush Republicans day. Lower the lid so none get away.

Short Takes:
From Willamette Week: A right-wing “flag wave” event in downtown Portland on Saturday ended with a far-right protester firing two gunshots into a crowd of Black Lives Matter demonstrators.
Seaside, Ore., resident and conservative activist Haley Adams advertised her Aug. 15 “Rally Against Domestic Terrorism” as a “flag wave” and stressed the group’s intent to remain peaceful. About 25 people attended the rally in front of the Multnomah County Justice Center.
This reporter saw several members of the protest arrive with weaponry—they open-carried a Scorpion 9 mm carbine and an AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle. Others held Mace, paintball guns and a 9 mm handgun.
The flag wave rally exchanged chants and taunts for approximately an hour with a group of Black Lives Matter protesters before Adams’ group embarked on a march through downtown Portland. Counterprotesters [sic] followed closely, and there was a small exchange of violence between the two groups: Flag wave protesters were seen Macing BLM protesters and shooting them with paintball rounds and hard plastic pellets. Counterprotesters [sic] returned fire with Mace and Silly String.
At approximately 1:35 pm, about 15 conservative protesters retreated into the SmartPark garage at Southwest 4th Avenue and Yamhill Street. Ten minutes later, three cars sped out of the garage and down 4th Avenue. The driver of one car—a blue Dodge Dart—fired two shots at a crowd of Black Lives Matter protesters as he left but didn’t hit anyone. Some of the BLM protesters recovered a 9 mm casing at the scene of the shooting.
When Republican Ammosexuals say “peaceful”, this is what they mean. RESIST!!

It’s another busy day here in the CatBox. Store to Door will be delivering my grocery order, and I have to unpack and store them. I’m still feeling quite tired after yesterday. May the Lord bless and keep you free of Trump’s* Republican plague! Update: I’m running late, because groceries are done.

From YouTube (Robert Reich Channel): Corporate Hypocrisy on Racism
Of Course the Reich on the left, Robert Reich, is right. The Reich on the Right, the Republican Reich, was racist long before criminal Fuhrer Trump* arrived, and will still be racist long after we drag him, kicking and screaming, from the house he stole. These corporate $billionaires actually own the Republican Reich and have kept it in power, so they must also be the authors of Republican racism. Remember, even anti-Trump* Republicans are just as Republican. Unlike Trump*, they hide their hate and greed. RESIST!!
