Republican Accountability Project also has 6 new ads each calling out a dfferent Rep by name. I suspect there will be more, since these six are merely the worst of the worst.

Meidas Touch – this is 9 minutes at regular speed, and I’d recommend 75% personally. But ut does have a great overview of Florida’s response to CoViD-19, and Gov. DeSantis generally.

Corey Ryan Forrester – “Youth Pastor Steve” In case you haven’t heard this story, the shoes are real, and they are Nikes, but they are Nikes altered by a third party before being offered for sale to the public. Nike had nothing to do with the alterations.

Trae also addressed the shoes, but as if he was his father (who hated censorship of any kind.)

Yesterday was a strange day here in the CatBox.  The Hospice Nurse was unable to come, so I actually got to stay in bed and snooze until WWWendy got here after 1:00 PM.  It was the most sleep I’ve had in weeks, and God knows I needed it.  When WWWendy got here, I had a shower and prepared for the end of the month.  Tomorrow is another relative rest day and the Hospice Shower Aides come on Thursday.  WWWendy will do my grocery shopping and bring them Saturday.  Beyond that, we’ll just have to see what the cat drags in.  Tuesday is Flush Your Republicans Day.  I would LOVE to have no Republicans to flush.

Sorry to be so late.  I had a grocery delivery which I couldn’t schedule for tomorrow because we’re expecting snow (well, I could have, but they aren’t paid enough to deliver in the snow IMO.)

It’s another Republicosis day here in the CatBox.  Both WWWendy and the Hospice Nurse are coming, and I’m waiting to learn if WWWendy could coordinate the times.  On the plus side, my system is getting used to Methadone.  OGIM! (Oh Great, I survived until Monday).

I’m exhausted here in the CatBox after a rough day of Republicosis and research into Adult Foster Care.  I’m looking at two, and WWWendy is preparing a photo spread on the one I think we like best.  I’ll share more, when I have it.  I’m completely worn out, so I want so spend today resting.  Tomorrow my Home Hospice Nurse and WWWendy are both coming here,  I’m hoping to coordinate their visits on that.  Have a blessed Sunday.  Prayers-up please.

Saturday Fun: It’s Fun Making Fun of Tucker

 Posted by at 1:24 pm  Politics

No matter what you think of Tucker Carlson, we can all agree that his facial expressions run the gamut of emotions from A to B.

I thought that since he’s now the leading prevaricator for Fox “news” he could add a second one – but I was wrong!

Whenever I’ve see a photo of Tucker he always has the expression a dog makes when you try to explain quantum physics to him.

So it made perfect sense in Fox world to feature a live Picture-in-Picture of Carlson’s “panoply” of reactions during Pres. Biden’s recent address to the nation on the anniversary of the COVID lockdown.

The Twitterverse started mocking Fox’s decision, and soon it was clear to even Fox that it was a huge mistake.  So they started running chyrons trying to convince viewers to stick around because Tucker was actually going to lie again say something shortly.

Sadly, they ran out of chyrons and started recycling them:

You would think that Fox and Tucker would have learned their lesson from a previous incident …

But obviously they did not.

Oh, well – it’s always fun to make fun of Tucker.
