Can we see if the third time's a charm? Please?
This should feel like "old-school" for Congress...
Today in history:
On Jan. 13, 2021, President Donald Trump was impeached by the U.S. House over the violent Jan. 6 siege of the Capitol, becoming the only president to be twice impeached; ten Republicans joined Democrats in voting to impeach Trump on a charge of “incitement of insurrection.” (Trump would again be acquitted by the Senate in a vote after his term was over.)
Oh dear God, just get that fucker out of office already.

The Cat Chronicles - January 11 2026.
I have a lot of folks and friends who often ask how the cats are doing. One dear friend has a allergy to cat dander and just lives vicariously through the notes. Much like the periodical "Morning Coffee Round-up" posts, I am going to begin a new blog thread, "The Cat Chronicles" with periodic updates about our... foursome.
We have two established resident felines; Lilo and Etta. Females, a "bonded pair", adopted from a rescue shelter back in 2020, going on 6 years old. As I posted the later part of last year, we have recently been adopted by two strays; Goldie - vet estimates he's around 4 (abandoned neighborhood cat) and Stunt Double (100% feral, looks like Etta only... bigger) who the vet thinks is around 10. Both have gone through a community "Trap & Release" program for neutering, shots, exams, etc. Both are quite healthy. My idea was to curtail the litters in the neighborhood and ensure protections against various disease and virus (rabies; we have raccoons and skunks living on our property).
Goldie has moved in! Does not want to be outdoors. He's just a giant, affectionate lunk of a cat who has taken up full-time residence in our kitchen. Though he's outwardly affectionate and VERY chatty, he's feisty; likes the verbal attention and being present, but does not like to be pet - prone to biting. He follows me around the 1st floor; taking up station nearby. He and Etta get along, but does not get along with Lilo; more like Lilo does not like him Right now, I have this trio (Lilo, Etta and Goldie) in my office as I am drafting this post.
Stunt Double (SD) holds station on the welcome mat outside out side entrance when not in his heated bed-box. (Weather permitting) I leave the door open and he comes into the breezeway for occasional treats, but this morning, actually came up the stairs and into the kitchen! A first! ...until Goldie saw him, then WWIII erupted as Goldie chased SD back outside. Wow... fangs, hissing and LOUD snarling! Followed by Goldie stationing himself at the kitchen door looking to the breezeway and offering a low, guttural growl for the next hour.
We'll get there. Those two shared meals outdoors without carnage. I think it is just a matter of reintroduction. Thank you, Mitchell, for inspiring me to write about our foursome!
So that is today's (inaugural) Cat Chronicle!
