A little over two weeks ago, a user on Twitter posted a joke claiming, with a knowing wink, that J.D. Vance, the junior senator from Ohio and Trump’s running mate, had been quite intimate with an alluring chesterfield. (long thread)

Mr. Vance encouraged a global pile-on against Ms. Khelif, quite literally putting her life in danger, all for a cheap political hit directed at Vice President Harris. Mr. Tapper said nothing on the matter. Nor did Ms. McArdle. Nor did Mr. Hart.

The criminal investigation will determine who initiated this misogynistic, racist & sexist campaign but will also have to focus on those who fueled this digital lynching. The unfair harassment suffered by the boxing champion will remain the biggest stain of these Olympic Games.

Good thread about the hypocrisy of media pundits who tut-tut the obviously false couch joke but are silent on a much graver matter, Vance perpetuating the false transphobic notion that the Algerian woman boxer is trans.

Good.

A statement from Post Guild leadership on the Washington Post's decision to not endorse a presidential candidate

I just unsubscribed from The Washington Post because they have sold out their journalistic principles. I'll be off this place pretty soon too. I'm tired of rich assholes wrecking everything.

Opinion staff at WaPo are furious about the paper's endorsement decision. Several are contemplating what action to take, ranging from resigning, quitting the board, or a statement. "If you doin't have the balls to own a newspaper, don't," one Post opinion employee tells me.

More true today than ever.
