It’s a worry and pray day, here in the CatBox.  The day for which we have waited for years has finally arrived, and I am witnessing the most important US election of my lifetime, if not of this nation’s history.  Molly, a physical therapist from Providence is coming to evaluate me this morning.  We want to see of there is a brace I can wear to reduce the pressure on my spine, when I’m sitting on my power chair in the hope that doing so will receive my pain level.  This morning my Republicosis was under control for the first time in quite a while.  I suspect this may be a prophetic message.  If God has controlled my shit, perhaps she may be controlling America’s shit, the Republican Reich, too.  What I do tomorrow may depend on what happens today.  Tuesday is flush your Republicans day.  Do it nationally!

Cartoon:

This is an old one. To bring it up to date, we need to add the swastika and the Russian flag.

Trump* Virus Update:

I understand that Trump* Virus voted at multiple locations this morning to express their appreciation of criminal Fuhrer Trump* for supplying them with hundreds of thousands of victims to murder.

Short Takes:

From The New Yorker: Donald J. Trump has ordered the Attorney General, Bill Barr, to investigate widespread reports that women are voting.

Trump said that he had evidence that women were casting ballots in the tens of millions, a scandal that he called “bigger than Watergate.”

“We’re not going to let this happen in our country,” he said. “We’re moving quite strongly and quite powerfully on the women.”

Dang, Andy! How ridiculous. According to Barrf, for women to vote is appropriate in a Republican Reich, as long as she is Republican, shoeless, expectant, and obedient to both her owner and to her Fuhrer*.  RESIST!!

From YouTube (Robert Reich Channel): A Last Word on the 2020 Election

 

Pray that the Reich on the left, Robert Reich, and that the American people put the Reich on the Right, the deplorable Republican Reich, out of business permanently! It that does not happen, and if you are US citizen and don’t vote, it’s YOUR fault!  RESIST!!

From YouTube (a blast from Pat): Cher – Happiness Is Just a Thing Called Joe

 

Amen to that!  Thanks Pat! RESIST!!

And for the Last Time…

It’s a busy day here in the CatBox.  Yesterday, I felt so wiped out that I went back to bed right after my shower.  WWWendy woke me up to feed me a small lunch, and I slept until suppertime.  Today, Diana came to change my patch, because WWWendy is on the coast.  Oh God, it’s Monday!  God Help America!

Short Takes:

From Crooks and Liars: In Austin, a Trump caravan of trucks filled with armed neo-Nazis surrounded the Biden bus and nearly drove a campaign staffer into an accident.

 

According to Alternet, Trump* said these criminals did nothing wrong. Once again, I urge you to avoid Ammosexual Nazi Republicans at all costs, with one exception. Do NOT let these terrorists prevent you from casting your vote! RESIST!!

From YouTube (NBC News Channel): Biden Holds ’Souls To The Polls’ Event In Pennsylvania

 

While Democrats hold “souls to the polls” events, Republicans hold comparable events of their own: “assholes to the polls”. Go! Joe! Go!  RESIST!!

Ah… the memories! On election eve, we need all the help we can get! RESIST!!

It’s a spooky day here in the CatBox.  The Republicosis still plagues me, but I have it under control.  Tomorrow is a WWWendy day day.  Then she is going to the coast until Thursday.  She needs a vacation.  Tomorrow is also a holy day in the Church of the Ellipsoid Orb.  My Broncos play the Chargers, but it won’t be televised locally.  In honor of the day, Boo2U2!

Short Takes:

From The New Yorker: Democratic voters are anxiously awaiting Election Day in the hope that Democratic candidates and activists will finally stop texting them, a new poll shows.

In conversations with Democratic voters across the country, “No longer being texted by Democrats” has emerged as one of the most important issues to them in the 2020 campaign.

Dang, Andy! That isn’t satire; it’s gospel! If I had a nickel for every text, email, and/or phone call I’ve received from an organization dunning me that the future of our nation depends solely on my donation to that organization, I could damn near pay off the national debt!  RESIST!!

I trust that you won’t mind if I pray like hell that Rachel is right. The early voting numbers are the best cause for hope I have seen! RESIST!!

It’s a tired day here in the CatBox.  My Republicosis last night was severe enough that I had to get up, pop on George, and make the mad dash three times.  Sadly, ice cream before bed was a bad idea.  I’m waiting for Diana to come.  She is due momentarily.  Tomorrow I hope to post a series of election maps.  TGIF!  (Diana just came.)

Short Takes:

From Daily Kos: According to a just-released study, the risk of interference in the coming election by far-right “Patriot” militiamen heavily aligned with Donald Trump is not only real, it’s growing intense in over half the states in the nation, with five states in particular likely to see disruptive behavior and perhaps violence: Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Oregon.

Compiled by the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED), the study gathered and examined “the latest data on right-wing militia organizations across the country, identifying the most active groups and mapping the locations most likely to experience heightened militia activity before, during, and after the election.” What it found should send up warning flares to officials at all levels concerned about election security, as well as among law enforcement officers who seem to be currently preoccupied with election-related civic violence coming from the left.

Pennsylvania is the tipping-point battleground state that should give Joe Biden his 270th electoral vote, and Republicans are doing all they can to suppress the vote. No matter where you live, click here to volunteer for a virtual get-out-the-vote activity in Pennsylvania.

As strongly as I support GOTV activity, I urge lefties to avoid confrontations with Republican Nazis. Every time one unarmed left winger defends herself or himself against 50 heavily armed Republican Nazi Gestapo, it will be reported as a left-wing assault.  RESIST!!

From YouTube (MSNBC Channel): Jocelyn: Voters Have Right To Cast Ballot ‘Free From Intimidation And Harassment’

 

The notion that Republican Ammosexuals are allowed to display their guns at a polling place boggles my mind. The best weapons for self defense are ballots, not bullets!  RESIST!!

From YouTube (CNN Channel): They say they are married to ‘deplorables’. So they formed a support group

 

God! Those poor women! Can you imagine the horror of being married to a deplorable Ammosexual idiot who measures penis size in caliber? RESIST!!

It’s a busy tired day here in the CatBox.  The infusions still bring fatigue, but it’s not as severe as it was.  But today is a grocery delivery day, and putting them all away will be a lot of work.  Tomorrow Diana is coming to change my patch, but I should be able to do a full Open Thread then.  The big question for the day is this: How will Injustice Amy Coney Blowjob interface with Injustice Pervert Nookie KavaNazi? (Update: groceries are stowed.)

The Last Free and Fair Election? – Won’t be this election. If this one is stolen, it will have been the previous election which deserves that title.

Family Separation Vol. 279 – As Beau pointed out, some of those parents will only have an address that is a row and plot number. “Could you bear it?” Plus, people seek asylum because someone wants to kill them, Sending them back to that ….

Pennsylvania Voter Values – Well, this is scary. But then any deep dive into the minds (by courtesy) of Trump* supporters is scary.

Witches Zoom – Well. Now we know!
