NooZFlash! The GQP Continue to be Soulless A**holes

Okay, that’s not really a NoozFlash. They are ALWAYS a**holes! I guess if you can do something well, you feel encouraged to do it all the time. I mean…if you’re good at lying and being a racist, I guess you might think it’s a good reason to continue doing it.

Meanwhile, charges have been filed against VD and Donny in Springfield Ohio for their lies comments against the Haitian community there. Fortunately, we have reports that Miss Sassy is alive and well.

Of course ZooNooZ has the interview.

We’ll be reminding you in each post that several of states that could be in play are continuing to purge voters from their rolls. Please check your voter registration ASAP and vote as soon as you are able! The GQP is counting on using dirty tricks to suppress the vote wherever they can, since they definitely can’t win on policy.

And for my friends in the path of Hurricane Helene, one of the things Project 2025 wants to do is disband or privatize NOAA. We all rely on up to date, accurate weather reports, but not having that information when a hurricane or tornado is heading your way, is a matter of life and death.

Don’t let TFG endanger the country on multiple fronts. VOTE!

They are not “Stories” They are LIES!

I swear the GQP is really trying to cause our blood pressure to soar so that our heads explode, and then since all the democrats will have exploded heads, we won’t be able to vote and they will be left to rule over their followers who, I think they actually despise. Won’t that be funny? Okay…not ain a “ha ha funny” kind of way, but “funny ironic” way.

Against our better judgement, somehow, Kitty Sue Conjob and Barker Carlson found their way on to the ZooNooZ set, with the results you might have already imagined. This story was ripped (off) from the real NooZ headlines. I bet you’ve heard something about it.

It has not escaped my remembery that today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day, so over on the Sub stacks, I have shared my annual tribute to Pirate Wu!

I know it’s hard, but we must not lose heart. we must panda on!

Is There Anything Going On This Week?

It’s a big week! And by that we mean, this week is the 50th Anniversary of Gerald Ford’s pardoning of Nixon. Was there ever a worse decision made by a president? Well, yes. Mittens says “hold my beer”

Is there anything else going on?

Ha ha! Just kidding! I’ll be watching, will you?

I do have some trepidation about watching the debate. I mean, we know Mittens is going to behave badly. Just how badly is the question. The other question is how much benefit of the doubt and “sanewashing” is the media going to perform, all the while holding VP Harris to an impossibly high standard.

Pandarella will be back on Thursday! Nixon’s Ghost refused to wait!

By the Sea, By the Sea, by the Beautiful Sea…

There is more Orca Nooz! Let’s get right to it, shall we?

Oh those little orca scamps! They are still flipping and frolicking in the ocean just off the coast of Spain, and gosh darn it! Oops, they did it again!

It is an easy mistake to make! What will those little imps do next?

Tonight’s the Night!

It’s Day 4 at the DNC Convention! Is tonight the night Pinky gets the nomination, or is there someone else waiting in the wings?

I gotta say, contrary to what you might think (or what you might have seen if you were masochistic enough to watch the RNC hate fest) the DNC Convention has been inspiring.

It has inspired hope
It has inspired patriotism
It has inspired JOY

It is time to do the work: check your voter registration. Talk to your friends, family, and neighbors about the stakes.

Considering, one month ago, I had never heard of Tim Walz. Tim Walz is the coach, the dad, the Vice President this country needs. His can do Minnesota spirit, his kindness, his compassion, his willingness to do the work to help his neighbors & heal the country are something I had lost hope of seeing in American politics.

I am seeing a much more comprehensive picture of who VP Kamala Harris is: what she has done, what she stands for, what she FIGHTS for. I believe she fights for us. I believe she has the compassion that can help heal our troubled country. I believe she has OUR interests at heart, and not her own personal gain.

I am glad to be reminded that there are people who actually want to serve the public & it’s not just the gotcha game played by Jim Jordan & Marge. #AmericaNeedsTimWalz & I hope you’ll join me in putting Walz and Harris in the White House.

Now…who is going to tell Pinky…

Times a wasting! Check your voter registration and VOTE!!!!!

We interrupt our presentation of Pandarella, for the DNC Convention

But don’t worry! as you saw last week, Bikkie is at the Pandapalooza, He is dancing. He is eating cuppycakes and drinking boo beer! He is having a good time!

But right now, I’m watching the DNC Convention and it is as inspiring in an equal and opposite way from whatever the heck that is that the GQP is pumping out. While the speeches are forceful and sometimes reference the many bad things Mittens has done and said, the overwhelming vibe is inspiration and hope for the future.

If you are not interested in my ‘toons about politics and my opinions on such, I suggest you ignore whatever of my posts are not episodes of Pandarella. I feel your pain. I wish we did not have to pay attention. I miss the days when I could ignore what was going on in the other Washington, and know there were enough adults in the room to keep things ticking along without me.

I’ve made no secret of my political leanings. As I watch tonight’s first day of speechifying, the overwhelming theme is hope for the future. The speakers are inspiring. If you’re not watching, be sure to catch the replays of AOC and Hilary Clinton. They both brought tears to my eyes. Shawn Fain of the UAW brought the fire for the workers of the country. Union Strong!

Jasmine Crockett is a national treasure. This smart, dedicated, faithful, full of integrity public servant is bringing the fire and showing her humanity, along with that of Kamala Harris. I couldn’t be prouder to have her in the House of Representatives, if she was this old, childless cat lady’s daughter.

I’m still waiting for Joe Biden’s address to the Convention, but if this is what they have on the first night, my computer may explode from all the passion.

I’m gonna leave you here with this: Check your voter registration, especially if you live in one of those states that has a propensity for voter suppression. Please vote. and please vote for Democrats, up and down the ballot. The humanity presented tonight, and the lack of it from the GOP should be clear.

There are less than 80 days till November 5th. Don’t waste this.

Bob T pandas for Kamala Panda

Bears, Bears, Bears!

But not THAT bear!

You know the story I mean. The story that we are definitely not talking about that involves a hit and run bear, a very strange member of a famous political family, and what they did with that bear.

Nope.

We are not talking about it!!!

We would NEVER leave a bear in Central Park!
(Frank: unless it was Josie!
Josie: WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY????
Mikey: Um…it wasn’t us?)

Bob T not THAT bear Panda

Because a story from 2018 recently resurfaced on the inter webs, I thought I’d share this little three part drama with you, for all the New Kids on the Block!

Ooooooo-oooo-oooo-we have food tonight…
Here kitty kitty…nice kitty…
“We just want to talk!”

Today in (Presidential Crimes) History

Yes, today is the 50th anniversary of Nixon’s announcement that he planned to resign.

If only, he mused, but no, even his own party members realized that this was a stain on their party, and he had to go. Alas. Today’s GOP has no such self awareness about crimes and stains.

We are at a turning point.
Do we choose the candidates and party that want to give people a bottle of water when they pass out from the heat at their political events? Or do we want the party that tells stricken parents of murdered children that they should “just get over it?”

Do we want JOY or Carnage?

I don’t know about you, but I think the choice is pretty clear.

89 days till Election Day. Check your registration! Vote!

PS: I am not even going to discuss the latest revelation about RFK Jr. I suspect Frank and Mikey might have something to say about it, or maybe not. They were really offended.

Will ZooNooZ Endorse Pinky or….

What a roller coaster these last two weeks have been. It’s a good thing we have the brilliant political analyst team on ZooNooZ, isn’t it?

A tip of the cheesehead hat to Jenn D who reminded me of this important cultural phenomenon!

Uh oh….

The Panda Chronicles Welcomes the Next Generation of Pandas

Wow, wow, wow. There is so much going on right now, and I will probably have A LOT to say about it, but I wanted to take a moment for hope and joy and optimism for the future. I am, of course, talking about…

The new PanDiego pandas will be making their debut on August 8th!

Coincidentally, that is also the 50th anniversary of Nixon’s resignation, but that is another ‘toon. For now…

LET’S PUT OUR PAWS TOGETHER FOR THE WARMEST ZOONOOZ WELCOME!!!

I should probably point out that I have never watched even one episode of Star Trek: the Next Generation, although I did faithfully watch the original series. I just thought it was a good title and a way to differentiate between the Pinky/Bubba/Bikkie universe and the new pandas in DC and PanDiego.

I can’t wait to see how Zinger and Chuie develop as characters in the Panda Chronicles Universe.
