TJ Ducklo [View all] Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 OP

Not just seriously ill, he has stage 4 cancer and is undergoing treatment still_one Feb 2021 #1

Yes. I don't see how he works right now. Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #3

Apparently his method of working... tonedevil Feb 2021 #6

I agree wholeheartedly. cwydro Feb 2021 #11

I am sorry to hear that he is seriously ill. Blue_true Feb 2021 #76

A lot of people on our side... tonedevil Feb 2021 #77

I agree. Blue_true Feb 2021 #78

So you would give no consideration Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #81

While a Government official... tonedevil Feb 2021 #84

He resigned. Very loyal to Biden. Tough guy. Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #89

OK. /nt tonedevil Feb 2021 #90

Well, since it involves Politico, I'll take this with the usual suspicion Budi Feb 2021 #2

He told the reporter he "would destroy" her. cwydro Feb 2021 #5

What led up to the end scenario that was reported? Budi Feb 2021 #17

I've been through some romantic drama in my time. cwydro Feb 2021 #18

What lead up to his comments? That's my only actual questionnn. Budi Feb 2021 #23

There's no "side" to take. He let some petty shit from his personal life cloud his judgment and WhiskeyGrinder Feb 2021 #21

Yep. I'm sorry he's sick, but he got off easy, IMO. nt Laffy Kat Feb 2021 #22

So there's no lead up to his reaction. He just decided to walk out there & throw some Budi Feb 2021 #30

It's generally understood that government officials shouldn't threaten members of the press. WhiskeyGrinder Feb 2021 #31

Their relationship is... tonedevil Feb 2021 #32

Right so she dug in & threatened to print a tell-all personal scandal Budi Feb 2021 #33

To me... tonedevil Feb 2021 #36

She knew what she was doing & should be fired as well. Budi Feb 2021 #38

You really don't understand a free press. /nt tonedevil Feb 2021 #40

Oh I understand it, I just abhorr the opportunistic scandal writers vying for relevance Budi Feb 2021 #44

She was writing a story about the relationship... tonedevil Feb 2021 #50

Well said. OnDoutside Feb 2021 #65

Yup. This is the underbelly kind of 'jornalism' that helped get America into the shithole Budi Feb 2021 #70

True dat. OnDoutside Feb 2021 #71

So Olivia is dating Ryan Lizzo of Politico! Wait for it... it's ALL BIDEN's FAULT Budi Feb 2021 #73

Yup, It's the phony bs of it all. JI7 Feb 2021 #85

That's the standard of Nuzzi alright. Thanks for that. OnDoutside Feb 2021 #88

As I said I am just glad that Biden Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #56

In today's high schools you find far worse than that, especially in the US. Celerity Feb 2021 #87

IMO, the White House should fire him. WhiskeyGrinder Feb 2021 #4

I'm afraid so. cwydro Feb 2021 #12

The guy has stage four lung cancer Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #13

Someone who says "I will destroy you" to someone in a lesser position (or in any position)... cwydro Feb 2021 #15

There's nothing to "straighten out." WhiskeyGrinder Feb 2021 #20

He can continue insurance through COBRA or ACA. Politicub Feb 2021 #25

Thank you. Kid Berwyn Feb 2021 #27

Being disrespectful is never good Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #41

Are you really so ready to protect anyone... tonedevil Feb 2021 #7

For many, "It's better than Trump!!!!" is good enough. WhiskeyGrinder Feb 2021 #8

I'm going to need a micrometer... tonedevil Feb 2021 #10

Metastasized to his liver, gallbladder and bones dalton99a Feb 2021 #9

Then he should be on medical leave SharonClark Feb 2021 #14

So if he had threatened a man Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #16

Please show where anyone on this thread said that? cwydro Feb 2021 #19

+100 bronxiteforever Feb 2021 #26

Pretty much calling him a sexist Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #29

Wow, you really don't get it, huh? cwydro Feb 2021 #35

We have no way of knowing that. BannonsLiver Feb 2021 #48

Yeah, he'd have said to a man, "You're jealous because she didn't want to f##k you." cwydro Feb 2021 #49

Right. But it was hauled to Vanity Fair and Politico? Budi Feb 2021 #28

That's easy for one of us to say. Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #42

He would be able to continue cancer treatments through COBRA insurance Politicub Feb 2021 #24

Who put him in the news? Budi Feb 2021 #34

That is some serious authoritarianism... tonedevil Feb 2021 #37

I saw the story on CNNs site and nothing was mentioned Boomerproud Feb 2021 #39

It was in the news back in October dalton99a Feb 2021 #43

Ducklo was diagnosed Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #45

It's because they're looking out for their media colleagues BannonsLiver Feb 2021 #57

There's more to this I bet DeminPennswoods Feb 2021 #46

It should also be mentioned BannonsLiver Feb 2021 #47

The person who he was dating... tonedevil Feb 2021 #51

Thank you. cwydro Feb 2021 #52

It seems a bit of a fib... tonedevil Feb 2021 #53

Their relationship is Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #54

This is why it is ok for... tonedevil Feb 2021 #58

Nonsense BannonsLiver Feb 2021 #55

So we will keep authoritarian bullies... tonedevil Feb 2021 #59

I would bet you would be laughed out of DC Springerjjhicka Feb 2021 #60

I know what he has done now. tonedevil Feb 2021 #61

Why is it a legitimate question ? Sounds more like a fucking shitty question. OnDoutside Feb 2021 #62

I think a Whitehouse official... tonedevil Feb 2021 #63

It's only legitimate if it was kept a secret, which it wasn't. And a WH Official with Stage 4 Cancer OnDoutside Feb 2021 #64

I don't see having cancer... tonedevil Feb 2021 #66

I hope the weather stays well for you in that ivory tower. OnDoutside Feb 2021 #67

OK /nt tonedevil Feb 2021 #68

They both told their employers and she was removed from JI7 Feb 2021 #69

Clear reason for a Whitehouse official... tonedevil Feb 2021 #74

These are gossip columnists, not reporters JI7 Feb 2021 #79

Moot point anyway... tonedevil Feb 2021 #80

I'm not the one complaining , you are. I just see things as they are. JI7 Feb 2021 #82

OK /nt tonedevil Feb 2021 #83

... probably should be fired. n/t demmiblue Feb 2021 #72

He resigned. I guess he's got more to worry about than a dust up with a reporter. George II Feb 2021 #75

yes, he is, to be blunt, a dead man walking (M1B stage IV lung cancer) so I feel bad for the bloke Celerity Feb 2021 #86
