It’s a tired/busy day here in the CatBox. First, although I feel queasy, I have not Republicated in over 24 hours. Yesterday, Deborah confirmed what I had suspected is the reason for my Republicosis. When the Oncologist increased my pain medication that made me more prone to Republicitis. I found a stool softener that I can take with my stent. That made me more prone to Republicosis. I kept taking it and a laxative at max dose, so when the shit hit the fan, the shit really hit the fan. It took four days of Imodium to finally have a better day. Now it’s a matter of getting my condition stabilized on the right balance of medications. It will stake some time. Tomorrow is a WWWendy day, but she won’t come until the evening, so I should be in the saddle tomorrow. Tuesday is a flush your Republicans day. I sure hope I have no more to flush.

Short Takes:
From The New Yorker: Driven over the edge by his expulsion from Twitter, a deranged Donald J. Trump ordered his two adult sons to hand out flyers with his tweets on them.
The incident occurred at three o’clock Sunday morning, when Trump, wide awake and in a state of extreme agitation, had an idea for a tweet but no platform on which to broadcast it.
Wearing his bathrobe, he summoned his adult sons to the Oval Office and scrawled his tweet on a piece of paper with one of the Sharpies that had served him well in the past.
Reportedly, Trump then commanded Eric and Don, Jr., to go to the nearest copy shop and order ten thousand flyers containing his tweet to hand out on street corners.
According to Trump’s plan, supporters desiring to retweet his tweet would also go to copy shops and hand out flyers, a system he claimed was “better than Twitter.”
Dang Andy! I suspect that the twit* will get writers’ cramp so fast that he’ll stop abusing tweets and go back to abusing twats! RESIST and REMOVE the Republican Reich!!
From Crooks and Liars: If only Rep. Devin Nunes had somewhere like a television station to run to so he could communicate with other conservatives. After the news that Amazon is booting the far right social media site Parler off of its web hosting service, Nunes ran to Fox “news” to gripe to host Maria Bartiromo about how terrible it is that they will no longer have the platform to spread their lies and hatred unabated.
Barf Bag Alert!!
Let’s call this what it is. Treason is not included as a right included in the First Amendment. Can you count Nunes’ lies? RESIST and REMOVE the Republican Reich!!
From OPB (Hat-Tip Daily Kos Elections Digest): U.S. Rep. Kurt Schrader, considered the most moderate Democrat in Oregon’s Congressional delegation, reportedly told House Democratic colleagues on Friday that he was against impeaching President Donald Trump for inciting the mob that broke into the U.S. Capitol.
Then Schrader likened the attempt to remove Trump to a “lynching,” according to reports from ABC News.
The comment on a caucus call drew immediate criticism from some of Schrader’s allies.
Mark Wiener, a powerful Portland political consultant who has worked for Schrader for years dating back to when the congressman served in the Oregon Legislature, quickly tweeted out that his company, Winning Mark, would be severing ties with the legislator.
“Comparing the impeachment of a treasonous President who encouraged white supremacists to violently storm the Capitol to a “lynching” is shameful and indefensible,” Wiener tweeted.
I supported Schrader, even though he’s a “moderate democrat”, but this goes way too far. He needs to be primary challenged in 2022. RESIST and REMOVE the Republican Reich!!
From YouTube (Robert Reich Channel): Without Accountability, the Next Coup Will Succeed
Of course the Reich on the left, Robert Reich, is right. The Reich on the right, the Republican Reich, is guilty. All must be punished. As long as the Republican Reich exists, America will not be safe! RESIST and REMOVE the Republican Reich!!

Ah… the memories! Wherever people are trying to defend human rights, Republicans will be trying to murder them! RESIST and REMOVE the Republican Reich!!
