What’s preventing a repeat of the Senate twink scandal?

Gay-PMG Grüezi from Switzerland, friends. A Cockburn spy was recently hoping to enjoy a quiet lunch at an Irish pub in Zurich’s Old Town when he was sat next to a large group of somewhat intoxicated KPMG Switzerland employees. It was quite the liquid lunch, with beers and wine flowing for hours and one staffer suggesting a round of shots, a move that was quickly rejected from the already too-far-gone group. One American employee of the firm was waxing lyrical about KPMG’s alleged hopelessly bigoted management.

Tim Walz had ‘passionate’ fling with daughter of CCP official

Good news. Contrary the speculation of the likes of Tucker Carlson, “Tampon Tim” is not gay... because he had a passionate fling back in 1989 with a woman from China. Bad news: he made the daughter of a top-ranking Chinese Communist Party official feel “cheap and common.” According to the Daily Mail, vice presidential nominee Tim Walz “sipped tea, made love and listened to George Michael hits” with Jenna Wang when they were both in their twenties. “Tim was very passionate and very romantic. I can still remember dancing with him to our favorite song, 'Careless Whisper,” Wang told the Mail. “We were deeply in love and I wanted to marry him and start a family. When it didn't happen, I felt very unhappy and sad. Tim's behavior was very selfish.

Can GETTR go the distance?

Where to go these days in social media when you want to MAGA and shake off Big Tech’s shackling of free speech on woke corporate giants such as Facebook and Twitter? You have a few choices, including one just announced by Donald Trump, TRUTH Social, which is set to launch in 2022. In addition to Parler, an app favored by Dan Bongino, a prominent Trump supporter, TRUTH Social will compete with GETTR, which is run by Trump’s ex-advisor Jason Miller, who left his unofficial job with the Trump Organization to run the fledgling Twitter clone. The OG Twitter alternative is Gab.

The trouble with Trump’s new social network

“Start your own social media site,” goes the common refrain when conservatives complain about getting kicked off Facebook and Twitter. Well, now Donald Trump has. On Wednesday night, the former president announced the launch of the Orwellian-sounding “TRUTH Social” and “Trump Media & Technology Group.” “I created TRUTH Social and TMTG to stand up to the tyranny of Big Tech,” Trump said in the press release. “We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter, yet your favorite American President has been silenced. This is unacceptable. I am excited to send out my first TRUTH on TRUTH Social very soon.

What makes Jason Miller’s new social media app different?

GETTR, a new social media app helmed by former Trump senior adviser Jason Miller, officially launched on July 4 to much fanfare, with more than 500,000 users creating accounts in just a few hours. The app was created in response to gratuitous censorship by Big Tech companies like Twitter, Facebook and YouTube and promises not to censor users for their political opinions. Then president Donald Trump was notably banned from these platforms in the wake of the January 6 riot at the Capitol Building. Miller told me during a phone interview the day before the launch that GETTR was 'founded on the principles of free speech, independent thought and rejecting the political censorship and cancel culture that we've seen in US politics in the US media’.
