College Republican Horst Wessel Files DCMAs

Justin Zatkoff was a College Republican — even THE College Republican — who lied to cops and said that "liberal thugs" beat him up, when really it was a friend in a drunken fight.

He's now filing DCMA complaints in order to get sites like MarkMaynard.com shut down. (Wayback Machine shows why.)

Zatkoff was covered by MeFi six years ago, and since he's now in law school, he's probably trying to scrub his record to pass the bar. Maynard doesn't have the money to fight, but he's asking people to redraw the image so he can publish again.

Of course, if the goal is to get FOX ratings, the GOP won big — Ailes wags the dog.

But it's all magical thinking anyway.

And Schadenfreude tastes so sweet.

Fordham pres. pushes back against Coulter.

Also: Dems may be feckless goobs when it comes to governing, but damn they competent at running a campaign.

Happy Halloween.
