When Valerie Plame kicked off her congressional campaign with a high-octane video that looked like an action movie trailer, an unbiased blue check journalist with NBC News tweeted, “As a journalist, I keep my political views to myself, but this #ValeriePlame campaign ad is AMAZING.”
Valerie Plame apparently continues to be amazing, going by this profile in the Washington Post. Get a load of this:
Actual line from a @washingtonpost "profile" of Valerie Plame: "She looks astoundingly good, at 56, as if the high-altitude desert air has preserved her skin since the day she arrived here 12 years ago." Not mentioned: Anti-Semitic tweets – https://t.co/tWK9A9ZBsL

Even Jake Tapper called B.S. on Plame, tweeting a simple, “Holy crap,” in response to one of her tweets, from which she tried to backpedal by claiming she shared a piece claiming “America’s Jews are driving America’s wars” after skimming it without reading the whole thing.
But now she’s reinventing herself by running for Congress, and did we mention she looks astoundingly good for a woman of 56?
Really trying to understand how WaPo could possibly write a whole glowing profile on Plame without mentioning her history of promoting antisemitic content…
WaPo even covered the saga at the time: https://t.co/ReKS9ec41E https://t.co/zp5N4K2nWP

Desert air doesn’t preserve your skin, it desiccates it and turns you into a lizard person. Must be something else.

Youthful looks obviously overshadow Jew hatred.

Thought we weren’t supposed to comment on looks? Or does that only apply when a Republican is commenting? The rules get fuzzy.

My profile of Trump: "He looks astoundingly bad, at 73, as if the humid swamp air has decayed his skin since the day he arrived here 3 years ago."

It's sillier than casting Lisa Page as a victim. At least so far. Plame was celebrated in Vanity Fair, had a book deal and a hero-movie made about her. "Brutal!"

They also forgot to ask her about her GoFundMe campaign to raise $1 billion to buy a controlling interest in Twitter so she could ban President Trump. It had stalled at $89,000 last time we checked.
