But she is pro-Israel. All they need is someone to rubber stamp.

Uh huh. Graham Platner has been running but isn’t pro-Israel so I guess the corporate establishment dems are fielding a known Zionist quantity.

I figured they’ve been in on the long game with the federalist society

Liane Yvkoff @liane.bsky.social · 2d

I think they only thought of themselves as tools of conservatism

Please tell me Scottsdale Bible church is in it

Liane Yvkoff @liane.bsky.social · 2d

Yes, and also their women’s group and “bible study” at the mega churches. The pastors cherry pick the pieces of the Bible that suit their world view, and the women that lead those groups reiterate whatever the pastors want to focus on. And many work with MAGA legal groups to harp on wedge issues.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

No, it was KG that wanted a divorce when she wanted to pursue a tv career. He was drinking a lot after that which he said led to some bad decisions.

Liane Yvkoff @liane.bsky.social · 3d

If I recall correctly, his now wife was somewhat in the picture and didn’t have great things to say about the woman he had an affair with, but that just made his wife seem immature.

Liane Yvkoff @liane.bsky.social · 3d

I lived in SF when they were married and this isn’t what I remember happening. After a sensationalist court case she got a TV gig and they divorced bc she wanted to move to NY and he was mayor of SF. He ended up having an affair with a staffer’s wife on the rebound.

I’d prefer the bitchy drunken takes at happy hour. I guess I’ll wait for nymag

Liane Yvkoff @liane.bsky.social · 3d

I imagine she has always been a been a nutcase, right?

Liane Yvkoff @liane.bsky.social · 3d

I haven’t read the piece but I imagine it’s more or less what happy hour is like at bars outside of CBS right now

It’s a theoretical academic exercise

if you were to theoretically start pirating CBS and Paramount content, you should also theoretically ensure that you're using a VPN with a built-in kill switch and DNS leak protection to ensure your IP address isn't broadcast to lawsuit-happy entertainment industry anti-piracy organizations

Are they still using the “most moral military” line?
