Life in the White House imitated Parks and Rec recently, as the identity of a staffer who ran an anonymous Twitter account critical of the administration emerged. But the real-life plot diverged from the show when the White House staffer, Jofi Joseph, was promptly fired instead of having a warm moment with Amy Poehler. Joseph, a director in the White House's National Security Staff, ran the @NatSecWonk stream, popular in foreign policy circles for its unabashed trolling of the administration, its allies, and various other political types. "I'm a fan of Obama, but his continuing reliance and dependence upon a vacuous cipher like Valerie Jarrett concerns me," @NatSecWonk once tweeted, per The Daily Beast's Josh Rogin, who broke the story. The account is closed, but a catalog of its activity remains, via Favstar.
Through @NatSecWonk, Joseph largely trafficked in the kind of snark only serious political and foreign policy wonks get or care about, hence its name. "Was Huma Abedin wearing beer goggles the night she met Anthony Wiener? Almost as bad a pairing as Samantha Powers and Cass Sunstein," he once tweeted, "insulting a top Clinton aide, a then Congressman, and two White House senior officials in one tweet," according to Rogin. But he also took on lower-hanging fruit such as "Sarah Palin and the rest of her white trash family."(continued)
Mr. Joseph
Gay, I’m guessing? Most straight men won’t engage in that level of bitchery.
Did you see the photo?
Beeep beeeep Beee deee du beeeep!
Major drama queen, sure, but I find Nixonian the double-standard of this admin; other people’s stuff is DEFINATELY our biz but you breathe ONE LETTER of our bees wax to others and, well, your a$$ is grass...
Appears he was bitching about everyone. Was Obama refusing his advances?
I’m on my phone and couldn’t see the photo at all well.
Speaking of “Lower hanging fruits”
GayDar be smoking.
I forgot to attack Amy Poehler. Thin-lipped woman ain’t got no soul.
I find it satisfying Tina Fey is on the precipice and maybe starting to re-think her ways. Payback really IS a bitch. Hopefully she sees the light and does something to redeem herself.
So the researcher showed Mr. Joseph pin-up photos of various Hollywood starlets in various stages of undress, but elicited no response at all.
“Hmmm, that’s odd,” he said. “Let me unhook you from this Homo Detector and you can re-join the other fellows.”
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP.....
I’d post it but I’m on my phone:
Latest photo of Obama and Reggie strolling on a beach makes Liberace seem like JOHN WAYNE...!!
U won’t believe it.
Well, if he survives to write it, the book could be priceless.
NSA gets its man ....how did they discover the IDENTITY from TWITTER without twitter alleged cooperation ?
NSA clients found him...thats how....they can access the database....its why obama is the reincarnation of the USSR
Agree 10,000%
We already knew they had the will to control.others but the really important thing is that now they have the technical MEANS to do so also, and this case is a perfect example of that.
What might they instead do with ALL the Med records of the LITTLE PEOPLE political dissenters...??
They’ll be clapped into irons and sent to FEMA camps.
Apparently his wife is on the Republican staff for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee (ranking member Sen. Corker).
After serving a stint at the State Department, he wrote: Look, (Republican Rep. Darrell) Issa is an ass, but he's on to something here with the @HillaryClinton whitewash of accountability for Benghazi.
...
, and he posted a half-dozen tweets questioning the sexual orientation of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) behavior that was completely beyond the pale, in the words of one official who worked with Joseph.
