Marc Chagall, Marc Elias. So no, those other Marcs are just assholes because they are.

I’m glad I read your piece instead of the Marc T piece, though. What an ass. Looks like there’s no one left there I’d ever want to read, unless… is Eugene Robinson still there? Hard to believe he could stand it.

Thanks for bringing back TFG. The only reason I won’t read the article is that I can’t pile on Thiessen myself. What a fuckwit. Also love the Santorum reference. Ever since that definition entered the lexicon, I’ve been a fan. Dan Savage coined it, I believe?

Yep, we can thank Dan for that neologism.

TBH, I *almost* let this skate but fuck that turd. Thiessen is king of shit takes

You’re 100% right because thiessen is insufferable and ALWAYS awful. I used to respond and try to tell him what he is, but I lost interest. It’s a wasted mind.

The correct version of his name is "that fucking weasel Thiessen."

My auto fill tells me so.

😁

And he's been a weasel since January 6th.

I really struggled to get through the first 4 or 5 paragraphs. He is that odious

Reading your selection, all I can think of is, is that all?

Dude I am stealing that Santorum definition! Making a bunch of tape name tags and pinning on a bunch of douchebags! Check your boot.

A universal asshole to say the very least

I’ll admit all I read was the comments flaying him. It’s an injustice that Michael Gerson died of cancer and Thiessen is still walking the earth.

Yay! TFG is back, baby! 😃

When I subscribed to WaPo I’d read MarK’s crap and leave him a scathing comment. Nice to see he’s still getting them.
