Tidbits And Cat Treats: Unsurprising News Edition

By Hubie and Bertie

Gosh! Who would have imagined that a workplace environment helmed by Roger Ailes would be hostile and toxic toward women? And that you could get handcuffed, stripped and raped by a FOX "News" anchor? Color us not surprised. (And does this explain Tucker Carlson's sudden "fishing trip"?)

Here are some other news items that merit major eye-rolls.

How shocking that when Benedict Donald decides to finally be a mask maven — 140,000 deaths too late — he makes it about him. And that Lady Lindsey would cheer him on.

And zounds! — Senate Republicans and the White House are not on the same page about school openings and payroll tax cuts. Do we think some folks on the GOP side realize those are terrible ideas? On that note, was it surprising to see that Trump didn't learn a thing from the John-McCain-flag-at-half-staff flap and lowered the White House flag for John Lewis for all of 12 hours?

Finally (although we could go on like this forever), is anybody stunned that the sheriff in Duval County, Florida, doubts that the Republican hatefest in Jacksonville next month can be held safely? Of course it can't. Does Benedict Donald care? Of course he doesn't. We cat HISS.
