The Weekly Standard Is Going Out Of Business
By the end, Bill Kristol’s takes had descended to the level of a parody account. He was often retweeted as a joke to show just out of touch with reality and the Republican base:
BREAKING: Multiple sources tell me that neocon magazine @weeklystandard is expected to close its operations in a few weeks. It had lost many subscribers since the 2016 election as its #NeverTrumper editors @BillKristol @stephenfhayes @SykesCharlie publicly aligned with the Left.

EXCLUSIVE: The Weekly Standard will be closing, according to several employees and individuals close to the magazine. One editor there tells me they do not even have a budget for 2019.

Employees at the magazine are bracing for the worst, multiple people familiar with the matter tell me. Also worth noting, @weeklystandard‘s traffic has increased in the Trump era. https://t.co/RRBH0hxBWl

Scoop: The fate of @weeklystandard is uncertain, Editor-in-Chief Stephen Hayes told staff in a series of phone calls today. The magazine’s precarious position comes after its leadership spent months searching for a buyer after butting heads w/current owner https://t.co/RRBH0hxBWl

Weekly Standard was always propped up by wealthy ideologues who wanted to convince themselves that “intellectual conservatism” (which somehow overlapped 100% with “pro-war conservatism”) was popular in the electorate. At a certain point you can no longer maintain the facade

I take no joy in people losing financial security and Weekly Standard did occasionally have decent articles, but the intellectual tradition it broadly represented is better off in the trash bin

Weekly Standard, RIP

Bill Kristol cheers on Trump’s initial attack on Assad over the gas attack hoax:
If Pres. Trump takes appropriate action against Assad this #NeverTrumper will of course support him. He’s the president, not merely “Trump.”

Bill Kristol says that regime change in Iran is the prize:
Punishing Assad for use of chemical weapons is good. Regime change in Iran is the prize.https://t.co/vnRo82CU4r

Bill Kristol backs Evan McMullin in the 2016 election:

Bill Kristol launches Republicans Against Putin:
We’ve launched a new group, Republicans Against Putin. Those Republicans who, unlike our president, haven’t fallen under the KGB operative’s sway, can sign a petition here. And friendly independents and Democrats won’t be barred! https://t.co/cMOP5Y4HaQ

A few days ago, Bill Kristol proposed forcing regime change on China:
Shouldn’t an important U.S. foreign policy goal of the next couple of decades be regime change in China? https://t.co/TpFODNTwQZ

Putin shares the joke about Bill Kristol with Xi Jinping:
The demise of The Weekly Standard is a huge blow to intellectual conservatism. It was the flagship of “foreign policy conservatives,” which is to say, warmongers:
The Weekly Standard folding is more proof that there are very few people are interested in what intellectual conservatism would look like and Democrats should stop trying to appeal to this imagined constituency
— Robert Wheel (@BobbyBigWheel) December 4, 2018
Undoubtedly, most of the neocons who jump off Kristol’s sinking ship will land at Commentary magazine, which was founded by the American Jewish Committee. If they don’t land there, they will just come out of the closest as leftists like Max Boot and write for the mainstream media.
