"Let’s start there, with your former father-in-law’s story today about your daughter and the little blue bunny doll that she cannot sleep without."

Said Jake Tapper, quoted in "Bunny Dolls and Disturbing Allegations: Max Miller’s Strange CNN Interview/In a 23-minute appearance with the anchor Jake Tapper, the Ohio Republican made an unusual effort to rebut a multitude of allegations that have threatened his re-election bid" (NYT gift link).

The "former father-in-law" is Senator Bernie Moreno.

We're told: "Mr. Miller bobbed and weaved, criticizing Mr. Moreno, until Mr. Tapper interrupted. 'It’s not really the issue, though, right?' the anchor said. 'The issue is — the one I asked you about is — did you hold this doll hostage?' (Mr. Miller said 'no' before returning to his harangue about his father-in-law.)"

This is why you should never get divorced. You create all those "former" this and thats, and they might say anything. And make sure to always give your toddlers whatever toy they cry out for. You never know who might one day say that was the precise item without which the little cutie pie could not sleep. One day, it's your little daughter's mundane struggle over bedtime, and some day in the future it might be the symbol of what a monster you are. 

The last bit of the article: "Mr. Tapper concluded the interview by asking if 'anyone in your life' is telling Mr. Miller that 'it really might be in the best interests for your daughter and for your own mental health to drop out.' 'My daughter is going to grow up one day, and she’s going to see all of this,' Mr. Miller said. 'And she’s not going to see that her father caved to political and social media pressures for something that he never did.'"

He's the incumbent. It would be foolish to drop out.

Decision 2026: What's on voters' minds?

'The issue is — the one I asked you about is — did you hold this doll hostage?'

It hasn't been a good summer for Jake Tapper. And Tapper's show is the one Miller appears on? To give Tapper a chance to play the fact seeker and moralist?

hanuman_prodigious_leaper ने कहा…

So these allegations are surfacing now? Why not last time?

Dave Begley ने कहा…

Why doesn't Jake Tapper drop out of the media business?

He pushed hard the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.

He knee Joe Biden was senile but never informed the public.

He went along with the Covid scam and we all now know that Fauci lied about - or was wrong - about nearly everything.

I have no idea what's going on with Max Miller, but this is a distraction.

Aggie ने कहा…

The Democrats are trying hard to 'Platner' Miller, and meanwhile Miller is doing a fairly good impression of a Platner implosion all by himself.

IamDevo ने कहा…

Just when it appears that the democrat party is fracturing along islamist/socialist versus the old guard lines, republicans decide it's time to "hold my beer" and air some dirty family laundry. It is impossible to make this stuff up.

Ann Althouse ने कहा…

"The Democrats are trying hard to 'Platner' Miller, and meanwhile Miller is doing a fairly good impression of a Platner implosion all by himself."

Seems to me Miller is standing his ground. Platner did not. I thought he should have and I said so at the time. This kind of attack on a candidate will continue if it is allowed to work.

Skeptical Voter ने कहा…

Jake Tapper--criminal prosecutor. It is to laugh. After all Jakie and his wife hosted Fauci for dinner.

Jake Tapper(D) is a fucking evil liar. Jake Tapper is a Fauci pal and fraud.
Jake Tapper has ZERO credibility.

Jake Tapper kissed Biden's shriveling balls for 4 years - harassing his guests when any dare to point out what we all could see with our own eyes.
Then Jake Tapper had the audacity to write a book (for $$$$) to say - 'OMG! Biden was a dementia patient. I had no Idea - we were duped!" (the duped theme is strong in corrupt dem media circles)

Why would any R agree to an interview with that fraud?

Please - GOP grow a fucking brain.

mindnumbrobot ने कहा…

Tapper still hasn't said a single word about his number one bestest buddy and pal, Anthony Fauci. Bash either, or any other media personality on their collaboration with Fauci. Just waiting it out, hoping it blows over.

Who is the Miller guy, and why should I care? Does he have a Nazi tattoo, hangout out with Hasan Piker, declare himself a commie, or want to cancel Thanksgiving?

hanuman_prodigious_leaper ने कहा…

Item to Note>>>> this incumbent candidate is R with corresponding IQ

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

So these allegations are surfacing now? Why not last time?

Supposedly because Miller (R) is blackmailing Moreno (R) about Moreno's (R) gay lovers.

Because that is an excellent question: why would a father bite his tongue for years while his daughter suffers severe abuse? It doesn't add up, does it? 🍿

hombre ने कहा…

I don’t know if any of this is true, but Moreno is an asshole for washing his dirty family linen in public. Nevertheless, attacking Moreno and Jake Tapper may not have been Miller’s best defensive choices.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

I don’t know if any of this is true, but Moreno is an asshole for washing his dirty family linen in public.

"Pointing a gun at your wife's head" is not "dirty family laundry." JFC. A father is NOT supposed to defend his daughter? The fuck is wrong with you people? MAGA is morally bankrupt.

Aggie ने कहा…

'...Seems to me Miller is standing his ground. Platner did not....' I watched part of the interview, and thought he did a poor job as a professional politician, presenting a case for himself. He must have known that Tapper was going to go for gotcha moments. I wonder why he wasn't better prepared for them.

Peachy+2 ने कहा…

The leftist hack fraud jurnos only attack R's like this.
All D's get a pass - and for much much worse.

tim maguire ने कहा…

My daughter had a stuffed bunny she loved the way Miller's daughter is portrayed as loving her bunny. If the allegation is true--that he refused to hand it over for personal reasons (which does appear to be true based on Miller's own published texts), then he is a monster who deserves every bad thing that happens to him.

Iman ने कहा…

If it’s the lying, leftist clown Jake Tapper? Ain’t no person in they right mind got time for dat!

Josephbleau ने कहा…

Everyone in politics is a perv of one kind or another. Some just can hide it better. If you are not smart enough to hide it, get out. If you are falsely accused, well, you created the conditions. That is just tough love, man. Everyone out there is after you because your job has the sweet sweet smell of corrupt power and money.

Bob Boyd ने कहा…

One of these days a hermit crab is going to move into Jake Tapper.

Josephbleau ने कहा…

But if you have the strength, fight to the bitter end and accept the consequences.

Josephbleau ने कहा…

My recommendation here:

After my family has been targeted by this horrific calculated political attack by paid shills of the Democrat party, I see that false attacks done by evil partisans can destroy all you have and love, your children and your hard earned reputation. I am not by nature a quitter but when you are the victim of horrible lies you just have to ask yourself if the damage these bastards do is worth the risk of a career in public service, which I am good at and dearly love doing. I am leaving the race to rebuild the damage that these idiot liars have one to me and mine. And I will, in time, fight back with all my strength after the innocent people these dishonest cretins have so deeply hurt are healed.

Thay and may God bless us all.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

@josephbleau That would work if it was "Democrat" liars, its actually a Republican Senator that is "spreading lies."

Peachy+2 ने कहा…

Mr. Miller said. 'And she’s not going to see that her father caved to political and social media pressures for something that he never did.'"

Leftist Cultists - Russia Russia!

Freder Frederson ने कहा…

"This kind of attack on a candidate will continue if it is allowed to work."

So spousal and child abuse shouldn't be disqualifying?

Tell that to Graham Platner

Indefinitely Extended Excursion™️ ने कहा…

Republicans have to believe that either Max Miller is lying and despicable or Bernie Moreno is lying and despicable. It’s a binary choice based on what they both have said. Both cannot be telling the truth. The senator is making false accusations or the congressman is an abuser.

All that’s left for Max Miller at this point is to publish a book called, ‘If I Did It.’

Wince ने कहा…

“Can you show me on this doll where he touched… your doll?”

Clark ने कहा…

I find it difficult to form a judgement about any of this without knowing a darn thing about Moreno's daughter. She might be a creep, she might be an angel—I have no idea.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

I find it difficult to form a judgement about any of this without knowing a darn thing about Moreno's daughter. She might be a creep, she might be an angel—I have no idea.

I know, right? When Graham Planter's accuser came forward we all knew that she was telling the truth, but this one is so much tricker because we don't know Moreno's daughter. She's probably a liar.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

Both cannot be telling the truth.

Yes and no. They both could be telling lies and the truth. Moreno could lying that he's not gay and Miller lying that he isn't abusive.

All cool by Tapper and Co.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

If you don't know what I am talking about, one of Moreno's "staffers tried to prank him" by signing him up for a website to solicit gay sex.

It's always a "prank" when GOP closet cases are looking for fat cocks. 😉

"She might be a creep, she might be an angel—I have no idea."

So, maybe she deserved it?

Indefinitely Extended Excursion™️ ने कहा…

Are there too many or not enough wife-beating and child abusing sadists in the Republican Party? Yes.

Indefinitely Extended Excursion™️ ने कहा…

I support Miller trying to tweet his way through this.

Doesn’t make him look like a lunatic at all.

@berniemoreno please stop the lies. As everyone can see in the below screenshots, mine and your daughter’s parenting coordinator reached about the bunny asking if you can come pick it up from me after she forgot it at my house. I said sure. Then, a man who is not on our approved list reaches out to me offering to come to my house to get the bunny, to which I said it was inappropriate of him to insert himself in family business and that I was waiting for you, @berniemoreno, like we agreed upon.

My daughter got her bunny back in 14 hours, no thanks to you. Glad this made national news though.

"Ms. Moreno has said that her ex-husband held a gun to her head and threw hot water from a skillet at her, and fractured their daughter’s collarbone; Mr. Miller has said without evidence that Ms. Moreno has mental health problems and has called her a liar and stalker."
And there it is. "Without evidence."
Is there any more "evidence" for the ex-wife's allegations than there is for Miller's? I.e., their own claims as witnesses?
It seems like the Dems and their press agents are taking the dirty laundry of a divorce and pushing it to their advantage.
Did Tapper ever ask: "Mr. Miller, there seem to be an awful lot of wild claims about you. Can you give us your side of what is going on here?"
Maybe the guy's an abuser. But this is very thin gruel.

Lazarus ने कहा…

It's important for Jake. He can't sleep without the blue bunny doll that Anthony Fauci gave him.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

Max Miller only dates women that falsely accuse him of being abusive.

Then there’s former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham, who is your ex-girlfriend. She accused you of being abusive and having a violent streak. She wrote in her book, “I could do nothing right by him. I would wake up every morning shaking with anxiety about his mood that day … I had seen his temper before, and it had scared me.” She has recently filed a temporary restraining order against you in a defamation case.
---
Politico published an article in 2021 that said you when you were in high school, you “pushed a girl out of the dorm of his room and she fell down some stairs after he became enraged when she resisted his attempts to touch her, according to three people who were there and many more who heard about the incident in the aftermath.”

https://thehill.com/opinion/lindseys-lens/6011452-max-miller-violence-allegations/

Why are women always lying about Max Miller and Bill Cosby and Bill Clinton and Graham Platner and Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump. Most men go their whole lives without a single false allegation of abuse but these unlucky guys just cannot catch a break.

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

But this is very thin gruel.

If the word of a sitting Republican US Senator is "thin gruel" what does that say about the GOP? Yikes!

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

If the word of Trump's former Press Secretary is "thin gruel"--well, yeah. I guess you have you have a point. Stephanie Grisham is a professional liar and bullshit artist. You got me!

D.D. Driver ने कहा…

When the Graham Platner allegations came forward the democrats were pissed at Platner. When the Max Miller allegations came forward the GOP was pissed at the lady who had a gun pulled on he head. 🤷‍♂️

I hate both sides, but you all seem like the bigger pieces of shit right now.

Whatever he did, Kavanaugh was worse. Plenty of women came forward and spoke the truth.

tommyesq ने कहा…

Apparently "plenty of women" equals one who couldn't remember shit.

Aggie ने कहा…

If there is one thing about these comments that has a unique clarity, it's that one side's group is happy to elevate accusations from an acrimonious divorce up to the level of solid gold evidence, and commence beating the drum for sentencing on the basis of finding automatic guilt. Even though it would seem clear that it's all hearsay on both sides.

But I guess we already know that, don't we? Looking at you, Russiagate.

"Both sides"? Both sides are Republican, Corky! ONE Republican side is an evil, lying piece of shit. Why shouldn't people be curious which Republican and a lying, evil piece of shit?

Ginsburg calls bullshit on you, FullMoon.

She says Kavanaugh is very decent.

That's a hard rebuttal to the "believe all women" crowd. Lots of women were willing to lie to protect Roe v.Wade. Kavanaugh, like Thomas, had his character assassinated in an obvious partisan attack. Only the dishonest, or the seriously deluded, still believe it now.

It's like saying Graham Platner ought to be arrested and prosecuted for his crimes. It's campaign horseshit and not taken seriously by anybody paying attention to the mendacity of our press.

Saint Croix ने कहा…

We can all agree that Platner's character is suspect. The man had a Nazi tattoo! But the serious criminal allegation was manufactured, and timed, for partisan purposes.

Saint Croix ने कहा…

Kavanaugh was so squeaky clean they had to invent a sexual assault charge out of whole cloth.

Platner was the opposite of squeaky clean. He had a mountain of sins, bad comments, broken relationships, violence issues, weird fantasies. His candidacy was floundering and one ugly accusation was enough to sink it entirely.

Saint Croix ने कहा…

I have zero opinions about Max Miller's divorce.

Except the Blue Bunny kidnapping is hilarious. Laugh out loud funny.

We have Democrats who are flat-out Hamas supporters. Contrast Mother Jones' non-coverage of the war crimes committed by Hamas with its breathless blue bunny exposé.

"Max would not hand over the little blue bunny," the Senator said. "Literally held it hostage for 48 hours."

War crime! And Mother Jones does the investigatory deep dive. Rep. Max Miller Has a History of Withholding His Daughter's Blue Bunny

If only the blue bunny was wearing a T-shirt that said, "I love Israel." Hasan Piker would call for the bunny to be decapitated.
