Washington Democratic Rep. Derek Kilmer broke the news of the Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie breakup on his podcast — at least to Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler.
“I asked about her commute,” Kilmer said. “And she said, ‘I like to sit on the airplane and read People magazine,’ and I said, ‘Why not learn about the Brangelina breakup?’ And she was like, ‘Wait a minute — Brangelina broke up?’ I was like, ‘Wow, I didn’t mean to traumatize you.’"
Kilmer launched his podcast series, ‘Quick Questions About Congress With Kilmer,’ this summer as a way to connect with his colleagues from both sides of the aisle.
“I didn’t know a lot about my colleagues. I didn’t know [Rep. James B.] Renacci was a former firefighter or that he owned a football team,” he said. “And I didn’t realize that Jaime read People magazine.”
Editorial Comment: You gotta be kidding me. Our Congressman who is running for reelection using a podcast to break a story that is trivial of two Hollywood stars. Big deal! Your tax payer's dollars hard at work folks. Talk about Sophomoric behavior! What is he now tabloid journalist on the side?
Also on Kilmer's webpage he issued a press release on the debate in Port Angeles he was in on Oct. 4th.
