DAN GAINOR: The 5 craziest stories of October — from Karine Jean-Pierre to PETA plaques

We have passed the spooky season of silly “No Kings” protests and whines about White House renovations. Halloween marks the start of one of our favorite times of year: eating. The three biggest food holidays all land within two months.

Halloween came right after an event commemorating the recently departed revolutionary Assata Shakur, the former member of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army who escaped a New Jersey prison to Cuba 46 years ago. In other words, another cop killer.

According to the New York Times’ loving farewell to Shakur, she murdered “state trooper Werner Foerster, who was killed, and another, James Harper, who was wounded.” Notice a trend? You should. Shakur died in September, or I’d dwell more on the media’s love fest for her. Watching Zirin lament the poor health of “the country’s best-known political prisoner” was bad enough. For the record, I lament his health, too, just not in the same way.

### Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

If you travel the back roads of the United States, you will encounter oddities: large monuments to furniture, trolls, a giant elephant, and even Carhenge (just what you think it is; Stonehenge is better). Count wacky museums in that list.

But we are losing one—Leila’s Hair Museum in Missouri. Alas, Leila Cohoon died at 92, and now they are “rehoming the collection of more than 3,000 pieces to museums across the country,” according to the Associated Press.

The AP describes the hair art coming from “past presidents, Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe, and even Jesus” (that last one, I kind of doubt). Hair art used to be how people remembered loved ones or captured keepsakes of famous people. The museum also drew the attention of celebrities from comedian Phyllis Diller to Ozzy and Kelly Osbourne.

It’s good to see other museums taking on these unusual memories, but that’s one less cool roadside stop.

### When You’ve Lost the Washington Post

Former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre made the news in October—and not in a good way. She should be used to that after an inauspicious term in her role, covering for President Joe Biden’s obvious dementia.

“KJP,” as she is sometimes called, has a new book out, *Moving Forward: A Story of Hope, Hard Work, and the Promise of America*. In World Series terms, she whiffed on all three. Don’t wait to buy your copy.

Even the Washington Post had unkind words for it. Book critic Becca Rothfeld wrote a lead 190 words long with six semicolons and two em dashes. She complained that KJP had only given up on the Democratic Party because it helped “usher a doddering Joe Biden out of the 2024 presidential race.”
