It's fitting to quote a joke that was a favorite of John McCain's in our headline today. Because his widow has endorsed Joe Biden for President. You know how they used to say "Country First"? John McCain certainly didn't follow that when he picked Sarah Palin as his running mate. But Cindy McCain is following it now.
Lots happening in the news today, so we'll just post a grab-bag of furry observations.
Here's a small fact that illustrates the state of the 2020 Senate races: When Dr. Al Gross is interviewed live on the Morning Schmoes, it's practically the middle of the night, Alaska time. Gross isn't running as a Democrat, but he'll caucus with us, so this race is super-interesting, to say the least. And the $3 million he just received after RBG died will go a long, long way in the Last Frontier.
The mask-hating, Trump-loving Republican Governor of Missouri has COVID-19 — hard on the heels of a former Nashville city council member who said the pandemic was a hoax and who is, now, most decidedly dead. (From COVID, of course. He was only 57.) Why do people want to mess with this virus? We'll never understand.
Anthony Fauci finally told Rand Paul to shove it today, and it was pretty great. Watch the video and you can be sure of one thing: Rand Paul was the kind of doctor who never listened to his patients.
Benedict Donald is a racist and an anti-Semite. But we knew that already, right?
More disappointment from Louisville tonight, for Black Lives Matter and everyone who supports them. Let's hope the Breonna Taylor demonstrations stay peaceful, especially since Trump thugs are wandering the streets trying to stir things up.
Finally, things are so upsetting these days that not even a barrel full of red pandas can make it right. So we have a suggestion: Spend a little time doing something that has absolutely nothing to do with the news. Today we attended a Zoom tour of a new couture exhibition at the McCord Museum in Montreal. Most therapeutic! We cats PURR.
(PHOTO: Lots of black dresses in the McCord's Christian Dior exhibit. It seems appropriate in the week after we lost RBG.)
