There have been numerous brutal beatdowns in history. Muhammad Ali’s eighth round knockout of George Foreman at 1974’s “Rumble in the Jungle.” Judge Maya Guerra Gamble stomping on Alex Jones’ antics during his recent defamation trial in Austin.

We can now add New York Times book critic Dwight Garner’s review of Jared Kushner’s new book, Breaking History: A White House Memoir, to that list.

Garner wrecked Kushner for penning an "earnest and soulless” memoir, and that’s actually one of the kinder comments to be found in the absolutely savage review.

The ex-president’s son-in-law “looks like a mannequin, and he writes like one,” presenting a bizarro-world interpretation of the “chaos” of the Trump presidency in order to tout his “boyish tinkering” with various policy issues, which Garner mocks along with Kushner’s Secret Service code name of “mechanic.”

Not only was the review hilarious -- like when it compared reading the book to "watching a cat lick a dog’s eye goo" -- but it gained a significant amount of attention for being utterly ruthless.

Garner had absolutely no time for Kushner's self-praise and complete lack of accountability, instead calling the simpering accolades potential "cries for help.”

Breaking History is a book without any clear audience, Garner notes, “not enough red meat for the MAGA crowd” and the subject matter “more thoroughly and reliably covered elsewhere” for the political wonks; its author is “a pair of dimples without a demographic.”

Kim Iversen, a former co-host of The Hill’s web program Rising, told Russell Brand that she left the show because she was excluded from an interview with Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Iversen, a vocal vaccine skeptic, has been branded as a "conspiracy theorist" by fellow staffers at The Hill, likely explaining her absence during the July interview.

Iversen was essentially deemed too off base about the pandemic to interview the chief White House medical adviser.

Rising co-host Robby Soave and Newsweek deputy opinion editor Batya Ungar-Sargon conducted the 20-minute interview with Fauci instead, prompting Iversen to complain about it on Twitter.

In a July tweet, Iversen explained that she wanted to be a part of the interview, adding that it was “a shame I wasn’t able to be there to get the answers we all deserve.”

While speaking withBrand this week, Iversen opened up about the departure, confirming it was over the Fauci interview.

“I’m not really 100% certain exactly how it went down. I don’t know if it was Anthony Fauci’s team that said ‘We don’t wanna be interviewed by that Kim chick’ or if it was The Hill that protected Fauci from me and said, you know, we’re just not gonna even present, um, me to Fauci thinking that then the Fauci team would maybe back out or maybe I would ask too difficult of questions and put him on the spot, or I’m not 100% certain,” she told Brand.

Although Iversen hit at The Hill for censorship, it's likely the outlet just didn't want a vaccine skeptic promoting conspiracy theories while interviewing the nation’s top infectious disease expert.
