DL Fave Yashar Ali Part 2: We Don't Know Her!

The article

Link to the DL thread about the article:

Yashar, why didn’t you let op create his own Part II to your sad story, you rotten crotch fruit.

Oh, WOW!!!!!!!! LOL, R5!

Scary Lamb!

And justice is done, times 2

R3 Because YOU were the asshole that skipped the voting and went ahead with a title that doesn't work. The original OP took a nap and I stepped the fuck in to make it right. Got a problem with that? I don't care.

The effect is heightened by see r4 & r5 in sequence. 😀

Guys! There are four interlocking Yashar Ali threads running simultaneously!

R8 “The original op took a nap”? 😂 You are something else, Yashar. Have fun, though!

R4 and then R5 is a stunning combo!

Can someone post the gif from R5 on one of YA's posts on Twitter???

He has just as many chins, R10

Hey, has anyone posted the Amy Siskind response here yet? I couldn't find it in the first thread.

He's for the birds!

Yes R14, now go look it up. Better yet, just google Amy Siskind. You are tiresome R14.

I haven't seen anything r14 Could someone please post it here?

Why the hell is the thread header greyed out? I am set to asbestos eyeballs.

Why the hell should someone do the work for you R17. Talk about being lazy.

Wow! The Widening Girth OP is PISSED OFF to resort to FFing and greying out this thread's OP!

What a freak!

I did google r18 I was not successful in finding the information.

From R 33 in the Girl... Fabulous thread, R20 :

Here they are!!!

Amy Siskind's tweet:

I too have a story to share about Yashar Ali. I met him at the same 2008 event for prominent Hillary supporters as Susie Tompkins Buell. Shortly after, Susie formed WomenCount with West Coast supporters. 30 East Coast supporters formed The New Agenda.

The New Agenda's role was to speak out against sexism. And to promote women into leadership in both parties and in all spheres. We were among the first to speak out against sexism against women of both parties.I wrote back then for Daily Beast and HuffPost as head of the org.

I had met Yashar. We kept in touch and he knew about my orgs work. Our paths crossed more closely when Hillary ran again in 2016. We actually were pretty close. I am gay, and I was one of the first people he came out to. I have an inbox full of gushing messages on FB.

Then we had a falling out. Ironically over the woman who accused Trump in 2016 of sexually assaulting her when she was 13. Yashar kept disparaging her on my page. I asked him to stop - once, twice, three times, then finally blocked him.

Months later, old tweets of mine and old DB stories were cut and pasted together by Yashar to create a false story about me and my org. Although he knew full well who we were and what we did. He took writings I did as president of the org to mischaracterize me and my work.

When I was selected for the POLITICO 50 in 2017 for my work with The Weekly List, he tweeted how I didn't deserve it and recirculated this old tweets and stories - again knowingly out of context. My org wanted more women to run in both parties. That and defend against sexism.

Eventually people called him out on this. If you read the articles I wrote as leader of the org, they are on women's rights and representation - which party is doing more (14 years ago the GOP tried). It was separate as well from my personal viewpoints.

It's almost impossible to fight false narratives which are cleverly crafted in 280 characters or less. So I just moved on. But I understand why people are fearful of his wrath - he knows how to manipulate - and didn't want to go on record.

P.S.: I also remember Kathy Griffin really viciously attacking me here - which I never understood at the time, because I had always defended her when she came under attack for her tweet. Now it makes sense: Yashar was living in her house at the time 🤦🏾‍♀️

[quote][R3] Because YOU were the asshole that skipped the voting and went ahead with a title that doesn't work. The original OP took a nap and I stepped the fuck in to make it right. Got a problem with that? I don't care.

What's all this "voting" stuff? I didn't see any kind of poll in the previous thread.

Goddammit, r21...

Thanks r21!

R22 Voting for the next title in continuation threads does happen, especially when you have a really tight or invested group. You can't put an official poll within a thread, so you just do it by votes. It's fun, and can get silly. I've never seen it get ugly like this though. Shame on that asshole. I think it was chivalrous for Winston to say fuck this noise, and try to fix it. Looks like he's paying the price by the grey of it now.

While he has retweeted several current news stories today, his most recent personal post is still from 16 hours ago.

Will he ever return with a new post???

He is slowing losing followers. It is about 5 thousand he has lost and counting.

I see Kathy RTd an Amy Siskind tweet today. I'll assume that is some kind of code.

Dead silent on Tiegen's Twitter ever since the Stodden shit went down.

r25 Probably sooner than later. That fucker is addicted. Probably working on some fresh lies to tell.

I wonder how many people who were up his ass thanking him for "helping" to normalize discussion about suicide and depression feel stupid, used and...depressed now?

Roxane Gay wasn't too exhausted to tweet this out, though I think she was referring to Jeffrey Toobin (but maybe to the Yashar thing as well.) Kathy is in the replies.

Kathy is referring to her own cancellation, not Yahsar's.

Yes, he's going down, but not every single Tweet is about him.

Where exactly is he living now, I wonder?

I assumed the same r29. I just thought it was funny to see Kathy honing in for attention. They are ALL attention whores, really.

r30 According to the article, a friend's house in WeHo I think it was. Unless that person read the article and kicked him out.

If you meant literally right now? My guess is ordering another pizza.

[quote]I see Kathy RTd an Amy Siskind tweet today.

I took that as Kathy's way of apologizing to Siskind. I bet Kathy feels used by Yashar, egging her on (probably even writing the tweets) to use her in his own vendetta.

Since Siskind issued a long series of tweets talking about what an awful, traitorous friend Yashar is, I think this Kathy's way of agreeing with her without coming out and saying it. I bet Griffin is still afraid of Yashar.

Can we not turn this into an Armie Hammer/Jeremy Renner/Jon Hamm-type thread?

We don't need speculation-becomes-"fact" here.

Posters like R33 are going to keep repeating "Yashar wrote Kathy's nasty Tweets without her knowing!" and ridiculous shit like that.

Can we stick closer to reality?

We have NO IDEA if he took over her social media. No proof.

he so fat

I wouldn't be surprised if they were in contact with one another R33 after this whole Yashar fiasco began.

Ugh, we're in Armie Hammer Land now.

r34 Did you read the article? There is mention of it in the second sentence below. Was it without her knowledge? That's not addressed. Kathy seems pretty hands on, and aware of what is being done under her roof, except when she isn't. (Like when her first husband stole money from her)

"Playing a similar role for Griffin that he’d played for Newsom and Buell, Ali became the comic’s confidante-slash-executive assistant, though he was never on Griffin’s payroll. He took an active role in managing Griffin’s social media accounts, helped her set up a merchandise company, and came to her defense in a property dispute by posting an embarrassing audio clip of a wealthy neighbor screaming expletives. He made a brief cameo in a Keeping Up With the Kardashians Christmas special, which he attended as Griffin’s guest. He did Griffin’s grocery shopping and cooking, jobs that usually fell to Griffin’s paid staff. In exchange, she let him live in her home rent-free and lent him one of her cars. But as the months wore on, Ali became increasingly reclusive, holing up in his bedroom and rarely leaving the house. Staff members assumed he was busy writing, but people around Griffin grew concerned when he started receiving official government mail at her home address."

"Managing" is not "writing her Tweets for her."

That sick fuck OP who posted day after day and for weeks about Jussie Smollett is back on his meth/bipolar binge. Dumb old bitch ruins everything with his stupid puns, polls for thread titles and endless repetition. He praises his own posts and then agrees with itself again! - immediately after. From multiple devices. He has a few favorite topics on DL.

It's one of Data Lounges sickest contributors. Everyone knows who it is. And the bitch ruins decent discussion and commentary. F&F and block the OP and all his posts. More than 1/2 of them come from the same sick fuck. Gross old white PIG.

R40 You show up everywhere, regardless of the subject, making these same baseless accusations at HOW many OPs is it now? JFC. Move on with your life. If you can't do that, go FF some more things since that seems to be what makes you happy.

It's melting down at the article thread now. Great.

You're an old alcoholic R41. You admit all the time. It's evident in your swooning posts as well as the inevitable short tempered ones. The struggle is real huh?

I must report this DL poster. He is a menace to this site and to my people.

My accusations are not baseless. Put down the bottle and come back in a better mood R41. You remind me of my Uncle Seth. Mean OLD drunk, harmless.

Shoo.

OP's thread is already blacked out. Everyone knows who he is. That's not the fault of R40. This is not a good thread or place to be.

Some people don't know when to stop posting....weird.

Would you get the fuck over it R43. No one liked the title of the other thread that was to be part 2. Some people don't know when to quit whining...weird.

What are some examples of the OP's insanity? Links?

Ignore-dar only shows the Yashar threads for him by my search.

Keep talking to yourself bitch.

Why does this weird guy keeps upvoting his own posts? Sometimes 4 votes within a minute? I guess he uses many phones and IP adresses. Desperate.

Ali is an interesting subject. But someone wants to spoil the conversation to make a show for himself. That's why so many have blocked his thread. We know by the way he made the stupid contest to name it. He's that sick person with many devices at his fast food job.

Yashar had a running back and forth with Andy Lassner, producer of The Ellen Show. Lots of kibitzing as if they were in a relationship, tongue in cheek complaining that Andy never does things for him, Lassner is married. Around the time of Ellen's troubles and subsequent cancelling, that went dead. I looked at his page and can't find any tweets to Yashar, maybe he has scrubbed them. Lassner is another sharer of his anxiety and depression issues on twitter.

I wonder if Lassner is now the new landlord for Yashar, or perhaps he got wise and dropped him before this mess. Does anyone know?

Still crickets from Yashar's feed. Sorry, I mean feeding.

Too many people that I follow and admire also follow this anal wart. Coco Peru? NO! Bad Coco! Bad!

Same for me r49 and unless they are just following him to snark like we do, I have a hard time respecting people who take him seriously.

R17 you dingaling, about six people posted the Amy Siskend stuff in the last thread, now it's a running joke for people to ask what Amy Siskend said.

I don't know if Winston/OP is Yashar r47 but I recognize the name as someone who has been one of our all-purpose pests for quite some time.

What has he done, R52?

Steve Schmidt is blasting Ali on twitter over how he went after the Lincoln Project.

Over 17 hours since Yashar's last retweet.

Total silence!

I wonder if the person he's currently grifting off is rethinking things.

If you were Yashar would you be posting R55? The article was very humiliating. If he has someone advising him they are doing a terrible job. He should have addressed the points in the article. I don't know anyone that would want to be known as a penniless grifter. Some of these are easy to explain. No pun intended, but the longer you ignore the elephant in the room the bigger it gets.

[quote] Still crickets from Yashar's feed.

He's drowning his feelings in a vat of Häagen-Dazs that he stole from Kathy Griffin's.

Much like Yashar, dead silence from the op of this thread. Hm.

Can you give any examples of what the OP has done in the past to be so awful?

R59 just has a stick up his ass R60.

Yeah, he never gives any examples, just vague but VERY angry, unhinged rants about OP.

[quote]Can you give any examples of what the OP has done in the past to be so awful?

No one except loonies gives a shit.

I hate when you obsessive queens derail thread after thread with your nonsense about other people here. It's so fucking boring.

R59 You rang?

That was really nice what you did OP/r64 Sorry some freak(s) FFd you.

No worries r65. Let's just move on.

I haven't listened to it yet, but the author of the article is on this podcast:

If only he were thin, this whole thing could be resolved.

[quote] If only he were thin, this whole thing could be resolved.

So true. If he were fit and hot, all would be forgiven. Since he's a disgusting fat pig, continue to pile on, everyone!

Hey you guys, on the article thread, someone posted a summary of a podcast with the author. I don't know if it was the one posted here, but it is juicy. Look for reply 405

OK, I listened to it finally. I actually listened to it twice, and it is a must-hear. The author's account makes the interview almost seem tame. You need both. The article for the details, the interview for the overall tone and vibe and even more details. But it was his tone that brought it all home. This guy is very erudite and quick on his feet, but he sounds like he needs a long vacation after this encounter.

I don't understand the power Yarshit has. I assume that is the mark of a true psychopath.

I can totally sympathize with the author feeling emotionally drained after dealing with Yashar. I felt that way just reading some of his ridiculous "I don't want to wake up" tweets, and even moreso, his eager sycophants assuring him of his beautiful soul and indispensability.

Dumb ass Jake Tapper

Tony Bourdain didn't kill himself. He was murdered because he was getting ready to speak out about sex trafficking and child prostitution. The Argtento woman was one of Epstein's procurers. He knew too much.

^ Argento.

QAnon LOON at R73 Alert!

Why are posters in the other thread saying Yashar isn't gay?

[quote] Why are posters in the other thread saying Yashar isn't gay?

Because they're retarded?

Yashar just Liked this Tweet of support!

He’s alive!!!!!!!!

UGH so over this con artist, money stealing grifter.

Amanda acted well, gave a good portrayal, just not of Betty Broderick. Her portrait bore no resemblance to the Betty everyone came to know and love from court coverage and interview clips.

Oops what am I doing in the Yashar Ali thread, posting about Betty Broderick? Well I’m sure we could find some parallels.

No one is saying he isn’t gay, r76. I posted his column demanding women stop faking orgasms because, considering the fat, flaming source, it was one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever read.

When I try to post in the other Yashar thread I keep getting an error message.

I hope Jake Tapper, Maggie Haberman and the rest of the people who were sucking up to him feel like fools.

And Steve Schmidt coming for him...

Where is Chrissy/Maggie/Jake coming to his defense???

Oh yeah fucking crickets!

This guy is a con grifter.

[quote]And Steve Schmidt coming for him...

The same Steve Schmidt who gave us Sarah Palin?

And shook down America with the Lincoln Project?

Gifters in glass houses . . .

Yes, the irony is that Schmidt at least likely made millions from his grifting while Yashar is bad at it. Reduced to pity staying in people's homes, can't pay his bills.

This person has a nicer take on it than I do. Probably why he has so many faaaaaaaaaaaaannnnns

Who ever thought Maggie Haberman, Jake Tapper and their ilk were superior beings? I sure didn’t.

[quote]This person has a nicer take on it than I do.

She worked with Ali to take down a NYT reporter. She is in his pocket.

He helped make her famous-ish.

True r89 I was actually referring to the comment below who reframed the grift to sound oh so gentle.

Seeing this pic makes me think that Yashar must have photoshopped his ears out as well in the infamous hoodie pic.

R91 I think that whole pic is a composite. That 49ers ball cap looks pasted on.

He really is quite unattractive isn't he?

Have Haberman or Tapper commented? It must be embarrassing.

I'm ready to recall Gov. Newsome simply for foisting Yashar on us.

His ex hag is back. I wonder if all of the negative attention he got from that article has scared her. I'm sure she's done even shittier stuff than what she got called out for.

r96 Quite the grovel fest at first glance, but it's still really about her.

88 instances using a form of "I"

49 "me"s

21 "my"s

Etc.

Go away Chrissy

I couldn't stand Yashar's superior act, but him going after Aaron Rupar ticked me off because Rupar seems like such a good guy. He came off as jealous and petty doing that.

He went after Aaron Rupar? Holy MFing shit! Aaron seems like one of the genuine Nice Folks on social media who does the best play by play of Trump rally weirdness.

What a horrific contemptuous cunt!

He must be furious that Chrissy crawled out of her hole and addressed her own collapse rather than his. Oh, to be a fly on the wall of a West Hollywood house of an entertainment-industry power broker right now.

I missed the Yashar -- Aaron Rupar dust-up.

What did Yashar say?

I want to know too. Anyone?

Have there been any developments?

The last activity on his Twitter account was a retweet of a NY Times article on 6/12, and he last posted to Instagram on 6/8. I wonder if he’s just laying low and waiting for the dust to settle or if something is up, like he’s been hospitalized or his benefactor took away his computer and phone or something.

I’ve been expecting a triumphant return after a 28- or 40-day “mental-health break.”

He is going to have to address the article about him R105, especially since people have tweeted to him about it.

Has he tweeted since the article came out?

Going by the Twitter playbook — since posing with a sad face and endometriosis surgical scars on display is out of the question — there should be a vague reference to a mysterious and previously undiagnosed condition followed by a big “AND MOVING ON…”

I noticed he would show boxes he claimed contained the school supplies he was sending. But they were sealed up boxes, anything could have been in there and he faked it.

He did send some boxes because there were tweets from grateful teachers.

So that accounts for $200 of the $450,000 . . .

OK, now that the Britney thing is going on and he is STILL silent on Twitter, I'm convinced he's in either in a psych ward or rehab.

[quote]I'm convinced he's in either in a psych ward or rehab.

Miss Grifter Thing is only going to *pretend* to go into treatment.

There is no way that between the Britney thing, the horrible Miami thing, the other horrible Madonna performance thing, that he isn't locked up somewhere without access to his Twitter teat.

Bump

If he is in rehab who is footing the bill?

I think Andy Lassner is paying for his rehab.

I hope he doesn't expect to be repaid.

Or is Jake Tapper footing the bill?

This cunt is dead. Or in restraints. Not missed, but admittedly curious.

Does he still post on twitter?

Wow, he's really playing the long game; it's gotta be killing him to not tweet out his pontifications on the Afghan pullout.

I know r120 it makes me laugh to think of that.

This Twitter poster is kind of obnoxious but this made me laugh

I never bought it that he would kill himself, he's too much of a Narcissist.

He is most likely still reading Twitter and dying because he can't post to Chrissy Teigen.

Yashar is back…
