Wow, how did Fox News get this exclusive, wow.
Seriously, though, the fact that Bill Shine--who had to leave Fox News for his role in covering up sexual harassment there--is leading the Trump White House media strategy over a SCOTUS nominee accused of sexual assault is really just a perfect encapsulation of where we are now.
That said, I'm sad they didn't place this interview with the obvious choice:

It's like the end of "Mary Poppins" when she realizes the Banks no longer need her and can take care of themselves. I'm getting a little choked up.
Oof.
(Nixon voice) Good God.

Notre Dame is struggling so much the coaches are just calling up random Catholics to sub in now.

Anyway, watch for me to suit up as an outside linebacker in the fourth quarter.
All right, all right, be patient. I'm almost in.

Coach says we're going to turn this around.
Apologies for my cursing that was just picked up by the network microphones.

Things are getting a little heated out here.

Um... going on Fox News doesn't seem like a good way to convince the country you're not a sexual assaulter.
I wonder if Bill Shine, who spent much of his time at Fox News before he was fired covering up sexual harassment, helped Kavanaugh land this interview...
I'm not sure who this interview is meant to convince. The GOP's base already doesn't give a shit about the accusations.

At best, it doesn't move Kavanaugh's disapproval numbers. At worst, it does damage, especially if he takes rhetorical swings at his accusers.

1. Thread.
Hypothesis on the #LindsayMenz allegations that @SenFranken grabbed her ass during a photo at a fair, while he was senator.
Let's start by looking into the EXIF file of the photo.
2/ The EXIF data contains #metadata which is like a blueprint of the photo. It shows #camera model, date created, modified, flash on/off, basically everything. The image is attached.:It shows the modified date: 11/19/17 and the time of 16:49.02 or 4PM49mins.
This image is odd and
3/ I will explain why the data is odd. That is the entire list. The metadata should be multiple pages. See the attached file for an example of one image. This is from the #AlFranken "grope" picture. (It is fake 2 see my pinned tweet) See how much more info there is? BUT IF YOU

Seriously, though, can we finally talk about how Lord of the Rings is one epic PR story covering up Middle Earth's secret drug wars?
It was all about the pipe weed, people. IT WAS ALL ALWAYS ABOUT THE PIPE WEED. And do you know who's at the center? The fucking Hobbits.
Here it is, straight-up: The Hobbit economy makes no fucking sense unless Hobbits are running a secret drug empire spanning Middle Earth.
