You're Not Going to Believe This, But a Weekly Standard Cabin-Boy Is Advocating For the Democrats to Win Another Senate Seat

Ahoy.

Who saw that coming?

No one. We're all just stunned to find out that people working for Bill Kristol, who is himself funded by leftwing billionaire Pierre Omidyar, are in the tank for the Democrat Party.

There's a runoff election coming up in Mississippi, which the GOP was expected to win, but which has become uncomfortably close since the Republican candidate, Cindy Hyde-Smith, said something which did not seem racial but which of course everyone is claiming is So Totally Racial:

The media would rather talk about what possible implications that has, and of course all the bells and dogwhistles that go with it, than discuss Espy's more serious scandal:

Espy Denied Employee’s Promotion Due to Child’s Preexisting Condition

Department of Agriculture lost disability discrimination fight during Espy's tenure

As secretary of agriculture, Mike Espy fought to block the promotion of a department employee because his young daughter's preexisting heart condition was believed to be a potential financial burden on the government, according to documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.

Espy, now running for U.S. Senate in Mississippi, was confirmed to head the Department of Agriculture in January 1993 during the Clinton administration. It was after Espy took office that James Patterson, an agricultural economist for the department, says he learned that his promotion to the Foreign Agriculture Service, a department within USDA, was being stalled even though he had passed all the required tests with flying colors.

The reason for the USDA's decision was Patterson's daughter, who was born in 1989 and immediately went into surgery for congenital heart disease.

"My problems began at the Agriculture Department when Mike Espy came in January 1993," Patterson, now retired from the department, explained in an interview. "I was in the Foreign Service there at the time, and he decided he would demote me based on my daughter's disability."

So you can imagine where the True Conservatives of America's foremost True Conservative amateur money-pit webzine come down here: Cede the seat to the Democrats to #OwnTheCons.

John Ekdahl and Luke Thompson, who says he works in the business and doesn't just mop the floors in a going-bankrupt amateur webzine as Jim Swift does, give the Second Assistant Cabin-Boy In Training some pushback, and Jim Swift just keeps doubling down on Omidyar's candidate.

You gotta read that thread. It sums up both the garbage fire that is The Weekly Standard, as well as the suffocating groupthink virtue-signalling of The Winners Club that lives on fucking Twitter.

You know, people who have fuller lives tend to get in their witty banter and #SickBurns off Twitter, using a thing called "Mouth Tweeting" with friends and other real human beings.

The end-of-year (end of days...?) review for The Weekly Standard can't come fast enough.
