Former Tallahasse Mayor Andrew Gillum (D) and his wife R. Jai Gillum spent four hours in a wide-ranging interview which will air on the Tamron Hall Show on September 14, according to Yashar Ali.

“This will be the first interview for Gillum or his wife since he was discovered drunk and vomiting in a Miami Beach hotel room last March along with another man who appeared to have overdosed on crystal meth.”

“Gillum wasn’t charged by authorities with any crimes but reporters later discovered that the man he was discovered with was a pornstar who advertised himself as a gay escort leading to questions about Gillum’s sexual orientation.”

“Former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens (R) and former first lady Sheena Greitens are getting divorced,” the Kansas City Star reports.

“The announcement comes two years after Greitens resigned amid allegations of sexually violent misconduct during an extramarital affair, and months after Greitens began speaking publicly again, prompting speculation that he may run for governor in 2020.”

The Daily Mail has more on Andrew Gillum’s strange encounter last night: The married father-of-three, who narrowly missed out on becoming Florida’s first black governor, was with a “hunky gay escort found naked and overdosing on crystal meth in a hotel room.”

Denver Fire Chief Eric Tade resigned from the department following the annual Firefighters Ball during which a sex toy was raffled off during the event, CBS Denver reports.

Multiple firefighters also posed with the sex toy in a photo booth.

“Fresh out of prison thanks to a commutation this week from President Trump, former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is in the hunt for a post-prison career,” the Chicago Sun Times reports.

Said Blagojevich: “I need to start working and providing for my family.”

Molly Jong-Fast: “It’s not often that you interview a subject who has no interest in being famous. But recently, I did just that when I sat down with Lisa Page the week before Thanksgiving in my hotel room in Washington. Page, of course, is the former FBI lawyer whose text-message exchanges with agent Peter Strzok that belittled Donald Trump and expressed fear at his possible victory became international news. They were hijacked by Trump to fuel his ‘deep-state’ conspiracy.”

“For the nearly two years since her name first made the papers, she’s been publicly silent (she did have a closed-door interview with House members in July 2018). I asked her why she was willing to talk now. ‘Honestly, his demeaning fake orgasm was really the straw that broke the camel’s back,’ she says. The president called out her name as he acted out an orgasm in front of thousands of people at a Minneapolis rally on Oct. 11, 2019.”

Matt Berman: “Anthony Weiner changed the course of American history when he tweeted out a picture of his dick on May 27, 2011.”

“This is not an exaggeration. There is a direct line between Anthony Weiner’s penis and the rise of far-right media, the current state of the country’s biggest city, and the election of Donald Trump. Anthony Weiner is omnipresent over the last 10 years: It is inevitable that if there is a major political moment, Weiner is somewhere on its edges.”

“He personifies the decade in US politics: Weiner began the 2010s with roaring hope and ended it in total defeat. His scandal is unquestionably funny — until you question it, then recognize how much personal tragedy undergirds the whole thing.”

Quinta Jurecic: “This is the first instance of which I am aware when a politically aligned publication has published an explicit photo of an opposition politician for apparent political gain. It’s both a sign of how ugly the political landscape could become and a reminder of how ugly, for the many ordinary people who have suffered this kind of abuse, the world already is.”

Politico: “Hill may be the first millennial member of Congress whose career was upended after the publication of intimate and embarrassing photos, but she’s not likely to be the last.”

Ashley Feinberg: “Someone made this video and most likely recorded it in a hotel room that costs about $18,000 a night. Was it all for the sake of feeding rumors, or for confusing everyone, or for tricking some overconfident journalist into the ultimate feat of Fake News? The only thing we can say definitively is that based on the room in which it appears to have been filmed, this can’t possibly be the real thing. Probably.”
