Re: your experience at The Situation Room, a grateful nation thanks you.

You weren't served, so we didn't have to be not served either.

Who could have predicted?

Bravo, Joe, for taking one for the team. I think spending any time near that Nick O’Neill, who I had been blissfully unaware of before now, would make me nauseous.

The first footnote provided is ::chefkiss::. An absolute masterpiece of dry comedy. The hardest I've laughed reading The Bulwark.

Maybe Staten Island would be better off on their own. That's an interesting, if local, issue. They may very well have a point. I guess we will see.

I'm happy that you were willing to stand in the rain without drinks for hours. As Holly said, a grateful nation thanks you. And so should Sam Stein. I hope you get a nice gift card from the office to make up for that. And at least you weren't compelled to live on the government food suggestion like poor Jared Poland!

And finally, Nick needs to check his girlfriend's ID. Is she even of legal age? I can say for certain, though, that her gaze is one of pure, selfless love. It's a bit reminiscent of the looks Melanie gives Donald. If anyone ever gave off the vibe of sitting in the cuck chair, it's this dude. Ick.

Right? A hot “girlfriend.”

Sure, buddy. ☺️☺️

I wonder how much Nick O’Neill had to pay for the arm candy, including the two watches.

Check his Venmo to see if it’s public. I bet you can find out.

Based on the photo plus excellent article, I can surmise that Nick O’Neill is a part of the Epstein class, and should be both despised and financially ruined.

Seek's avatar

I assumed it was all smoke, mirrors, and skeevy Venmo payments. I bet she’s from Canada, you wouldn’t know her.

kruppel@londonhuntclub.comnada. We have too much class and common sense

I look at guys like O'Neill and can feel their emptiness resonating....prayers to broken stone.

The writer of "Press Pass" didn't have an actual press pass for the Polymarket event. Who said irony is dead?

A hilarious read, overall. My only disappointment is that Joe ducked out of sharing a photo of the impatient Jeep. ;-) What a surreal gig though!

Is the United States really a "brand?" I'm horrified that they can reduce in that way what our country should represent.

Dave Migliaccio's avatar

I’m guessing that Nick Adams will be flying around the country with Kristi Noem in a plane retrofitted to permit them to suck…er… at the public teat while doing nothing useful.

This is a part of DC I will never miss. How’d you draw the short straw? With a Trump on their board, what are the chances/odds that it’s all aboveboard?

Frau Katze's avatar

Zero. The chances are zero.

Did some insider make a killing on Kalshi because the "Situation Room" stunt was a fiasco?

Frau Katze's avatar

That would be perfect!

Seek's avatar

Sounds absolutely horrifyingly bad and boring. That takes effort. Thanks for suffering for our entertainment at their expense.

Thankyou for going into the deep darkness of slime! I couldn't read it all because I don't want it to haunt me
