Well ain't that just the ultimate "Beta male" move as they like to say about others.

How is this even a story. I've seen it in multiple papers now. What loser reporters saw this extremely minor drama and thought "the world needs to know"?

Stephen Miller IS objectively ugly, in body and soul, but even if it wasn't true, calling your opponent ugly is the most tame level of political offense, even from an official organization's account. And his wife "doxxing" a political employee by name only is also the weakest act that could possibly be described as "doxxing". This might serve as hot gossip if it took place within a local neighborhood board, but not when applied to a Nazi whose every action is an offense to society and who is serving in a regime for which politeness is actively discouraged.

Cover literally anything else. Or nothing at all! Even printing this like an important thing in politics is a minor violation of respectful interaction is actively harmful.

    It's a story because Republicans NEED it to be a story. They desperately need a constant feed of "Democrats evil" to hide behind and convince The Base to be angry and keep voting for Republicans. It's a 24/7 routine, the constant grievance politics that the Reich thrives on.

    I've seen republicans with this take too: "Wait when did we become the thin-skinned ones?"

    I mean, it kinda gets me a little closer to burning down the establishment and dragging the current administration to the guillotine.

    Took them over a decade to start fighting back with the insults. Maybe in another ten years they’ll realize you push back against violence with violence until you clear the slate and start fresh. Just don’t fucking “reconcile” with them this time.
