This is brilliant, Tonika. Caitlin is always scathingly on point but never hits so unerringly as when read and illustrated by you. That turtle-without-a-shell McConnell, being trundled off to go 'outside.' Would you like to go see the butterflies, Mr. McConnell? We have warmonger bingo at 2.
Powerful and scathing. Mitch McConnel demonstrates a classic illustration of the freeze stress response I talk about a lot in action (or perhaps that should be in inaction); basically he has Parkinson's like symptoms.
Ok this is perfect. I loved Caitlin’s rant, one of her best in a while. Didn’t imagine it as a potential VA collab creation, but then you continue to surprise! Must be all that Scorpio/8th House energy in your chart 😁
You're so talented this should be shared with Caitlin I'm sure she'd love it as much as we do. Thrilled to hear you will be teaming up with Liam.. please send a reminder post on Tuesday so our good intentions aren't lost in the chaos that life tends to become! <3
Bloody excellent. Beautifully delivered. 'The whole place smells like night terrors and urine.' Do you ever wonder how these 'helpers', those who seem to be so compassionate towards McConnell in this video come to be assistants to these psychopaths? This worries me more than a lot of stuff. The concept that the next door mum and the uncle to the kid down the street can be on their payroll. But then those who baited the non-vaccinated would have been happily watching the cattle trucks thunder through the night on their way to Auschwitz. Great work Tonika, very succinct. And excellent writing of course from Ms. Johnstone.
This got sent to my junk mail for some reason, so I missed it til now. I'm so glad I found it!!
You rocked this, Tonika. As soon as I heard the music (nostalgic, elegiac almost, and so simple -- to match the simplicity of Mitch himself in that moment), I knew you had nailed it.
And then your voice -- empathetic, smooth, to cover the sharp teeth of the words -- PERFECT!
Damn, I love your work. Chicago theatre is missing your genius. xox
Brilliant (as many others have pointed out in comments) and powerful. Wow. Packs a punch! Living up to your handle, it's viscerally felt. Great collaboration. Thank you Tonika! (& Caitlin.)
Good Lord, so many funny and yet true and sad quotables in this. Would love to see the written text. Marvelous job by all. Theater, grand theater, but fully exposed like the naked emperor. All sold a big lie, their souls gone, taken by evil. They may find what a spiritual deconstruct feels like, better to be thrown into a river of molten lava than to have a spiritual deconstruct. This I have on the highest authority.
A most scathing "port-rate!" (must be first rate port in the veins of these pervertogenarians!)--well rendered visually an' vocally with a lovely slice of much deserved venom cake well-served on a porcelain plate! Reminds me of the fine politi-cull satires of the GREAT ahrtist George Cruikshank -- to wit: blob:null/6623f6ca-be1e-4104-9dbc-2233b055943b
Evil takes on the banal daily double of an overflowin' chamber pot onta a stinky carpet with lackadaisical maids doin' the clean up job ta hid the "evidence."

Silence is golden? 🤣
Kathartic.

Brilliant vid! My only issue? Background music too loud/distracting.
What a visual! Also “pervertogenarians”?!? Stealing!!
I can’t open this link. Email it me? (Only if it doesn’t burden you!)
