Tough Confirmation Fight Looms in Senate for “First Cat”

 

Socks -First Openly Feline Nominee since Clinton

With the announcement yesterday that the Bidens intend on appointing “Socks” to the post of “First Cat” in the White House, it is expected to have a tough confirmation hearing in the Senate. This would be the first openly feline pet in the white house since the Clinton administration and both Blue-Dog Democrats and Red-Meat Republicans are expected to make this a tough confirmation. The opposition is expected to raise issues such as inappropriateness of appearing and especially meowing in the background during Zoom calls, bringing mice birds, and other trophy’s into the oval office and taking over the President’s office chair when the President is not sitting in it. Proponents cite the relaxing benefits of lap-time purring and cuddling – a role that dogs simply cannot fill. They also cite the fact that the secret service will not be burdened with taking several walks a day to permit the dogs to “do their duty”. They will however have to clean out the litter box on a regular basis.

Washington DC

 In a statement to the Press today, Ted Cruz blasted what he called the “Fake Weather Media” for setting people off in a panic over fake low temperatures. He insisted that the lowest it got in any part of Texas was about 49 degrees. It never got into the 20’s and teens as some weather forecasters are saying. “We need to get on with our lives and not be festered by these fake reports of ice and cold and admonishments to keep off the road. This is the same type of tyranny that led people to wear masks and not go to churches because of this so-called Pandemic. Next they will be saying that this fake weather is due to Global Warming. You won’t see me wearing a coat today."

Forget The Alamo!

 

Generalissimo T. Cruz at the Insurrection of the Alamo

A new document has surfaced apparently written by a Generalissimo T. Cruz following the fall of the Alamo. Here is the transcript

Senores,

The tragic incident at the Alamo has been thoroughly investigated thoroughly by our great Presidente and Generalissimo Antonio López de Santa Anna and finds that it was the work of AntiTejanistos that instigated the riot that led to the tragic deaths of those in the Alamo. We must remember that there were good people on both sides. Evidence is clear that the AntiTejanistos planned this well in advance, and the Mexican Army was only there to protect those innocent Texans that were barricaded in the Alamo and not the other way around. Those AntiTejanistos are just trying to conduct a witch hunt against our Presidente. We must now move on from these events and forget about the Alamo. Viva Mexico!

P.T. Beauregard’s Defense for Firing on Fort Sumter

 A rare document has surfaced recently containing the transcript of a military tribunal held after the Southern Arm's surrender at Appomattox to determine if Confederate General P.T. Beauregard was liable in issuing the order to fire upon Fort Sumter. This act is credited for starting the American Civil War in 1861.

Beauregard’s defense was that he did not give an actual order to “Fire!” since he was not a serving member of the United States Army, but only acting as a member of a paramilitary group that was standing up for their Second Amendment rights. When he told his supporters who were gathered at the battery in Charleston Harbor that April morning in 1861, to “give em shot and shell”, he meant that only figuratively, meaning “stand up for your Second Amendment Rights to bear arms” and not literally. Although he used the phrase  Fire boys”, numerous times, he was only uttering a cheer of encouragement to his fellow militiamen. The fact that they were standing in front of loaded cannons pointed at Fort Sumter and took his statement literally is no fault of his. Besides, the real perpetrators were Union sympathizers who actually wanted a Civil war to bring down those States that supported States Rights.

The findings of the tribunal were never revealed as then President Johnson threw out all charges and convictions against Southern Generals who fought against the Union.

Gobbler’s Knob, PA

What has for more than 100 years have been the peaceful celebration of Ground Hog Day at Gobbler’s Knob in Western Pennsylvania today erupted into a violent protest by mobs of people who refuse to believe that Punxsutawney Phil actually saw his shadow today. “It was clearly an illegal attempt to steal our winter”, said one of the protesters, “We are hell-bent on doing everything we can to stop this travesty. We’ll even shoot every one of those damned groundhogs who venture out of their dens and attempt to take away our constitutional protected winter days. I say Stop the Steal!””

After state and local police and intervened, the riot was finally quelled leaving a very shaken Punxsutawney Phil quivering in his den-like-cage, too afraid to come out for anything!
