You might think this wretchedly embarrassing piece of writing is from a random family friend who the WaPo gave space to. Nope, it’s Kathleen Parker their long employed columnist! All these fucking assholes just run around in the same social club and defend each other!

Guys. GUYS. I know you’re a bunch of cynics, you think everyone on the right is hypocritical. But I firmly believe this exact op-ed would have been written if there were photos of an antifa flag at Judge Merchan’s house. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Opinion | Democrats weaponing flags to intimidate Alito is an embarrassmentwww.washingtonpost.com Martha-Ann Alito isn’t out of control. She’s just exercising her freedom.

Oh she’s fun and feisty? Who gives a shit Kathleen?! Are we all going to hang out? Probably not! I want to play Mario Kart! Are you willing to do that?!?!

Like if you’re in middle school and writing what is meant to be something resembling journalism about someone and you say “you know the person and they are really cool”, your teacher will tell you that’s not relevant and give you a C- because she’s just tired of your bullshit

The 5 Ws: WHO has money? WHAT can I do to help them? WHERE can I amplify their concerns? WHEN 's dessert? WHY report unpleasant things about such nice folks?

WHEN does the check clear

Some might get a check, but the majority just seem to do it because "rich people with connections are so COOL."

(Rube Goldberg had this covered in 1916.)

Kathy at minimum gets a paycheck from someone who evidently thinks publishing this is valuable for some reason

They are hoping for checks

WTF?

That's my W every day!

Excuse me, but I think Kathleen has served us well by confirming that Alito is just delightful to those she sucks up to for political expediency, in stark contrast to the neighbors who actually have to deal with her shit and hate her guts.

clearly *you've* never enjoyed Martha-Ann's sidesplitting impersonations of Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris or Ruth Bader Ginsburg after she's warmed up with a second bottle of Chardonnay

“Fun and feisty” sounds like code for “she says really mean things about you ‘as a joke’ while getting wasted at brunch”

Having dealt with a lot of people others insisted were “fun and feisty”, it 100% is.

I would refuse to play Mario kart with Kathleen Parker on moral grounds and also because I’m kind of rusty and it would be incredibly humiliating if she beat me

Fun, feisty and one of an unknown number of SCOTUS spouses who support sedition (so far two)

The “funny, feisty, and unfiltered” bit is just code for “We all laughed at her racist jokes.”

"Unfiltered": "she does funny accents and imitates her queeny hairdresser."

"The life of any party": an aggressive drunk.

"It's like she's unafraid to say what all of us bigoted, old white people are thinking!"

I think everyone should be suspicious of an article that basically states, “Yeah, I can understand why the neighbors wouldn’t like her, she’s just too cool and awesome for them to deal with.” We can smell that crap no matter how deep they try to bury it.

Trans journalists can't cover gender affirming care news because they're too close but friends and acquaintances can write about specific people

It's almost as if...

When I first got into media I quickly learned it attracts two very different kind of people: people who want to put power under a microscope, and those who want to be a part of that power. The former do not last long.

😢

"Martha Alito must have been aggressively glad-handing me at a meet-and-greet because she's a vivacious, beautiful soul, not because I'm a forever columnist at the WaPo" : if you make it a habit to write gullible, stupid things, you become stupid and gullible.

Kathleen Parker immediately eaten by a cryptid mimic predator.

Was nice to people at a meet-and-greet, wow. This cracks the case wide open

Don’t forget M-A also implied she needed to exercise while gossiping.

In the interest of fairness and "both sides!" they should give op-ed space to the Alitos' neighbor to tell us why she thinks Martha-Ann is a c*nt.

I will re-subscribe to the WaPo for the one day that this appears in the Op-Ed section.

I tried to unsubscribe the other day and they gave me $70 off to stay, so here I am subscribed for one more year. I promise I'll figure out a way to post a gift link if that happens.

They didn't, but the Guardian talked to one neighbor and has some details www.theguardian.com/us-news/arti...

Neighbors say Alitos used security detail car to intimidate them after sign disputewww.theguardian.com Emily Baden says after a disagreement over political lawn signs with the US supreme court justice’s wife, a black car began parking at her mother’s home

Hey if we have to let AI write all our investigative stories that’s the price we pay for the pure gold of “70 year old woman enjoys her friend”

I'M 70 YEARS OLD AND HAVE BEEN MAKING FLAGS ALL MY LIFE. TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY AND I MADE MY OWN FLAG. PLEASE LIKE SO TRENDING #boomchallenge #alexandraddario

The post sat on the story, now they get to claim that it is "suddenly all the news".

What a fucking disgrace

It makes sense when you realize that Parker considers a lynching a party.

There's a 90% chance pictures exist of Martha-Ann in blackface.

most reporters would know it's a huge red flag if your subject asks to be buddies

Massive "well, he never sexually harassed *me*" energy

The founders said it's okay to do little a treason if youre a social butterfly

Mrs. Benedict Arnold was funny, feisty, and the life of any party.

This is the same columnist that made up the idea that there must be a Bret Kavanaugh doppleganger that was a rapist.

Omg id forgotten about this

its just doppelgängers all the way down

holy shit the most depraved simping
