This is how the #cuteanimaltweetoff started. It was just what the internet needed after week 1 of the nightmare that the tRump administration. Just 1375 days left to go. I think we're going to need a lot more cute animals.

Morning, comrades. I have launched a new business this morning!
"TriSec's Kitchen Sanitization"
Did your last lasagna explode in your oven? Trouble with that bacon grease all over the stove? Does it look like an animal excreted undigested remains of it's last meal on your counter? We don't judge - WE CAN FIX THAT.
We love the smell of Pine-Sol and straight bleach in the morning!
Reasonable rates - dial up some music and keep the coffee coming!
(And actually we do judge - come on, if an animal shit on your counter, we're going to have a problem with that.)
Anyway, that's my project for today. And I do have Guinea Pigs that often visit me at the 'chef's table' while I'm preparing their salad. There have been issues.

Totally unconfirmed rumor: Elijah Cummings was on CNN earlier saying that Mitch McConnell is already telling others in Congress that Trump won't get a second term.
Hey Mitch, how well did that work for Obama? Maybe you should work to get him impeached instead. I assure you you'll get a LOT of bipartisan support for that.

Supposedly there's an anti-choice march today in DC, starting at Noon at the Washington Monument.
Naturally we'll be able to see all five of them on EarthCam.

This march happens every year.
The big thing about this year is that Pence is addressing them. I don't think that has ever happened before.

Even one can would be more assistance to these folks than the current administration has done. Trump is literally sitting on his hands while people have lost everything.

Oh yes, and TriSec thought he might look at TSA jobs, too. Yeah, I know they suck and the concept is flawed...but I'd be OK with being at the airport every day, and I also know a couple of people that work there already.
But then Mr. Trump froze all federal hiring. So...that's two strikes on the TriSec in 5 business days. (I was also looking at the V.A.)
Why does he hate me so?
Oh wait, he hates everybody.

Hell, Republicans are leaking shiot from the GOP retreat.
Recordings of closed sessions at the Republican policy retreat here were sent late Thursday to The Washington Post and several other news outlets from an anonymous email address. Aides to House GOP leaders declined to comment on the recordings or their authenticity, but the contents match descriptions of the meetings gathered by Post reporters. The lawmakers were introduced by name before they spoke, and the Post spoke with other people in the room who confirmed speakers’ identities.
Pence spokesman Marc Lotter neither confirmed not denied the accuracy of the quotes when reached Friday. “We’re not going to comment on private conversations with members of Congress,†he said.

President Trump filed papers with the Federal Election Commission for his re-election in 2020 last Friday — on Inauguration Day.
In contrast, Barack Obama filed for re-election in April 2011.
