‘Bipawtisan’ Halloween Parade: Dogs Dressed Up As Sinema, McConnell, ‘Nancy Pawlosi’

Dogs were dressed up for the annual Bipawtisan Halloween Dog Parade, and “Nancy Pawlosi” was in attendance.

The third-annual party, started by Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), was held on Wednesday. The senator dressed his dog Theo as Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), and another one of his dogs as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

Sinema went viral earlier this year after she wore a “Dangerous Creature” sweater on the Senate floor.

Holding up his dog dressed as McConnell, Tillis said, “This is the leader.”

There were other political costumes at the “bipawtisan” dog party. One dog wore a sign reading, “I want you to tax the rich.”

Another wore an outfit that read, “Tax the Cats” — an outfit that looked like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-N.Y.) “Tax the Rich” gown at the Met Gala in September. One dog’s costume read, “Bark Back Better.”

“Nancy Pawlosi” was also at the dog parade. As Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.) wrote, “Make no bones about it, Nancy Pawlosi is working hard to Build Bark Better and help all Americans unleash their potential.”

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) dressed his dog as Pierre Doglecto. In 2019, Romney admitted to running a secret Twitter account under the alias Pierre Delecto.

Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) said, “I seriously wish everybody had a dog; I think the place would work better. It’s one of the few unifying opportunities in this institution that needs more of it,” according to Roll Call.
