How did Katie Martin become ... this?
The Interior Department spokesperson just spews nonsense. Why?
Odds are high you have never heard of Katie Martin, a spokeswoman for the Interior Department. Truth be told, before yesterday I had never heard of Katie Martin, a spokeswoman for the Interior Department. But then, while reading a New York Times piece about the reflecting pool, I stumbled upon this …
And, like … how? Why?
You’re Katie Martin. You attended Oakland (Michigan) University and received a degree in communications. Long ago you interned at the Fox affiliate in Detroit, then you landed your first gig as the press secretary for Mike Bouchard’s failed Michigan gubernatorial run. At some point, you likely loved George W. Bush and Mitt Romney and John McCain. You believed the Democrats were too [soft, liberal, angry]. Back in 2018, when you were employed by the National Republican Senatorial Committee, Politico featured you in a Q&A. And you said this …
As we sit here in 2026, the sheer insanity is … you. Your world. Your leader. The guy falling asleep in meetings. The guy hiding the Epstein files. The guy saying Canada is the 51st state. The guy wanting to attack Greenland. The guy posting images of the Obamas as apes. The guy demanding a Peace Prize. The guy raving about his high IQ. The guy making up shit and serving it as caviar. Plus, not for nothing, the economy is in shambles. Absolute shambles. You see it, Katie Martin. You know it.
And yet … here you sit, checking off nonsense lies about a reflecting pool that’s turned green and chunky because your incompetent king offered a no-bid contract to some groupies. You know there weren’t libs with knives slashing shit up. You know it’s all just gone terribly wrong.
But, for some reason, your job has consumed your morals; your slavish impulses have corrupted your decency.
And, on the same day both Tucker Carlson and MTG divorced themselves from the GOP, you burrowed deeper into the lies.
How?
Why?
When does it end?
I am gobsmacked that these sycophants willingly give up their precious intellectual independence, their morality, their capacity for shame, and their carefully built reputations to serve someone so debased and defiled. No normal person acts this way.
It’s truly a cult.
