She's a cockroach, and the congressional appearance was like a good spray of bug killer. Now she's buzzing around on her back furiously thrashing all her limbs while everybody looks on with mild disgust waiting for it to stop.

She's finished, but just doesn't know it yet. Being the head of a media organisation who constantly spouts bullshit that is obvious to everybody in the audience leaves her nowhere to go.

It’s fascinating to me that telling the truth-expressing her honest feelings and views-would never even occur to someone like this.

As Hunter S Thompson said, she “lies like [she] breathes.” This is why such people can’t be trusted with leadership or education or policymaking. They have no integrity and they will do/say ANYTHING to avoid accountability. Cowardice and dissembling is all she knows.

"That's... weird". Typical mean girl obfuscation.

If I’m a media executive and someone accuses me of being an intelligence asset I would simply say: “I give you my word that I have NEVER worked with the CIA or any other intelligence agency. It’s important you understand me”. She didn’t even fully deny the speculation, if you notice. CIA assets don’t call themselves ‘agents.’

No Katherine. It’s not weird to speculate that you’re an asset. It actually makes a ton of sense, in my opinion. Maybe the fact that it’s now been repeated 500,000x will make it seem less weird?

This is a perfect takedown not only of Ms. Maher but the institutional rot in a publicly funded media outlet. Our government should never fund any kind of media. Full stop.
