When it comes to hard hitting investigative journalism, the Washington Post is failing miserably these days, a truth put on full display by the ridiculous piece they recently published about “uncovering’ Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s dirty little secret.

What was this massive bombshell that could threaten to destroy Trump’s pick for SCOTUS? Was it an affair? Was it corruption?

No. It was baseball tickets.

Apparently Kavanaugh racked up tens of thousands of dollars in credit card debt for season tickets for the Washington Nationals for himself and his friends. Horrifying, isn’t it?

More hilariously, his friends reimbursed him and it seems the rest of the debts have already been paid off or at least greatly reduced.

The information came from financial disclosures and information provided by the White House, according to the report.

Kavanaugh reported in 2016 that he had “$60,000 and $200,000 in debt” from three credit cards and a loan. Each credit card had between “$15,000 and $50,000 in debt, and a Thrift Savings Plan loan was between $15,000 and $50,000.”

Part of the debt is linked to Washington Nationals season tickets and tickets for baseball playoff games that Kavanaugh bought for himself and friends. Other costs were related to home improvements, White House spokesman Raj Shah told the Washington Post.

The story goes on to state that filings show the ticket purchases were made at the end of 2016 and paid off early the next year. In 2017, the credit card debts and loan “were either paid off or fell below the reporting requirements,” according to the report.

“He did not carry that kind of debt year over year,” Shah told the Washington Post.

In other words, this is a total non-story. It’s simply being pushed by the left-wing media to try throwing a wrench in the cog of Trump’s administration. These folks are legitimately that hateful.

They will take even the smallest things and turn them into ultimate things in an attempt to sabotage those they consider their enemies.

Childish, right?

As Vladimir Putin continues to work up his reputation as the world’s most despicable and despotic leader, it appears as though he does have some jitters when it comes to dealing with the mighty USA. Over the course of the last several weeks, the two superpowers have exchanged a number of insults and threats, centered around any number of issues – all of which are of Putin’s own doing. First, US President Joe Biden went ahead and told the world that he believed Putin to be “a killer” – a statement that reportedly irked Putin to no end. And then there were the hack attacks against the United States that saw Biden slap a number of hefty sanctions on Moscow. Now, as anti-Putin journalist Alexei Navalny continues a slow and agonizing march toward death at a Russian prison camp hospital, Biden and the US government have warned Putin that his demise could brings a world of pain to the Kremlin. This has pushed Putin to enact a total blackout of news on Navalny’s condition. Russian state TV has imposed a virtual blackout on coverage on Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny amid claims he could die at “any minute” in a prison hospital. The imprisoned 44-year-old, a prominent critic of President Vladimir Putin, has been on hunger strike and there are planned protests in 77 cities as a show of support. The protests on Wednesday will coincide with Vladimir Putin’s key annual state of the nation address to parliament. The Russian Government have said the protests are illegal. Putin and Biden had briefly considered a summit meeting to discuss this latest dissonance, but there is no telling where those negations stand after this latest malfeasance by the Russian government.
