McHenry was attending a Washington Wizards NBA game in D.C. when a group in the crowd near Britt began shouting insults toward Bucks player Kyle Kuzma about his fiancée, Winnie Harlow, whoever she is. McHenry began arguing with the fans in Harlow’s defense. The dispute escalated with the alleged unruly fans shouting back at her, resulting in McHenry tossing a drink at them. The State employee was then showered with debris and jeers as the Wizard fans chanted, “Get her out!” according to a viral video. Security personnel then escorted a seemingly inebriated McHenry out of Capital One Arena, blowing kisses to the crowd.
Stay classy, Britt McHenry!
It takes a special kind of cluelessness to get promoted and fired on the same day, wouldn’t you agree? This isn’t even the first time the MAGA Barbie was disciplined over an embarrassing public incident captured on video. In 2015, ESPN suspended McHenry after she was caught on camera berating an employee of a towing company in DC., saying the woman had “no education” or “skill set.” “Do you feel good about your job? So I could be a college dropout and do the same thing? Why, ’cause I have a brain, and you don’t?” she ranted at an attendant as she paid to get her car back after it had been towed. “Maybe if I was missing some teeth, they would hire me, huh? … ‘Cause I’m on television, and you’re in a fucking trailer, honey!”
Sounds like a perfect candidate for a job in the Trump Administration to me! True, she’s an asshole, but look at that hair!
To be fair, at least this administration fires some of its indefensible appointments and hires once they reveal to the world what they are, maybe after the second or third time, while the Biden DEI hires had permanent sinecures no matter how inept they were. That’s something, I guess.
Now, for a grand finale, here’s Li’l Abner and Marryin’ Sam for another encore…
I saw that one and came this close to using it…
In the fall of 1969, I saw a poster on the bulletin board in my college’s campus post office announcing the appearance of the then washed up former Canadian Shakespearean actor and former science fiction tv show star at a local county fair in upstate New York. I’m guessing that was the nadir of Bill Shatner’s career which has had more lives than a cat.
Powerline blog’s The Week In Pictures and Saturday morning go together like Hope -n- Crosby…

Wow if I ever behaved that way to anybody my Mother would have wagged a finger in my face so emphatically, sent me to my room forever, and had me going to confession several times over. What a horrible woman.
Disgraceful, just as bad as the arrogant black women with those voices that go right through you. I had the cops throw someone out of my office once for throwing insults and threats like that. Service employees are required to provide service, not be a target for that kind of abuse for abuse’s sake.
I believe it was Tom Wolf who described them as the “Flak-Catchers” in the book “Radical Chic and Mau-mauing the Flak-Catchers”.
Women or men being appointed purely based on their ability to be voted homecoming royalty has always been a pet peeve of mine. Too many people are advanced in their career paths based entirely on appearance and the social deference shown to the pretty.
Trump clearly has a type and he needs to rein it in pronto.
This is just one more reason women with an average appearance are not fans. And I totally get it.
I don’t know how the hiring process is but why would the President or his immediate staff be involved in vetting this woman? At most, this would be on Rubio , and I am not sure he would be personally be involved in the hiring process except to be introduced to the new hire.
Doesn’t matter. It’s Trump’s administration, and Trump’s culture, as well as Trump’s biases being employed in staffing: Fox News, long blond hair. Fish heads…
