Kicker: White House wildlife

NICK EICHER, HOST: During a Fox News live shot last week outside the West Wing, White House correspondent Peter Doocy was mid-sentence when a rather unwelcome, unsanitary guest interrupted regular programming.

DOOCY: A bird just landed on my head! (LAUGHTER) I did not like that at all! That’s probably so….dirty!

No doubt about that. The bird flew off. But Doocy kept his cool—feathers only slightly ruffled.

Later that day, inside the White House:

LEAVITT: I also understand there was a mouse in the briefing room earlier today …

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

LEAVITT: … so I’m hoping somebody it doesn’t run up here and distract me.

So—one bird, one mouse. No word yet on whether a cat has been cleared for credentials to provide a little natural order around there.

It’s The World and Everything in It.
