Wes Pruden died today.

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/jul/17/wes-pruden-washington-times-editor-and-columnist-d/

Seems to me he had excellent conservative creds.

He is the person who wrote about this:

The bookies in Costa Rica have established betting odds that Vice President Mike Pence is the likely source of The New York Times op-ed,

The Costa Rican bookies say they consulted the veep’s speeches in establishing their opening odds, and found that he is fond of the words “lodestar.” When the bookies searched the speeches of others of the administration, “lodestar” came up only in Mr. Pence’s speeches. The entrails of goats are said to be full of clues, too.

Remember “lodestar”? Remember Mrs. Pence getting an envelope at the funeral? Odds?

What NYT op-ed?

The Washington Times is now behind a paywall. I can’t even access WT articles via this site:

Irritating as I used to like to read them sometimes.

Okay, I read the Jewish Review article by Pruden. 100% tongue in cheek, sarcastic. It is not a serious article.

He thinks the NYT article is full of s***.
