Today we meet Lee Markham:
See Lee Markham.
Lee Markham is an influencer.
Lee Markham is a fitness influencer.
Fitness means he can do lots of physical stuff.
Like stepping on his (we can’t say that on a kid-friendly site, now.)
Wait – this is TAH – it ain’t kid friendly.
Mr. Markham apparently got incensed that people commented negatively about his looks. He publishes under the screen name of Malibu Fit Maxx
“I’ve always got comments about my face and appearance. Some of them were harsh. And to be honest, I didn’t handle it well. I was new to being in the public eye and I didn’t know how to handle the criticism,” he explained.
“Instead of facing that right away, I made a bad decision and put ‘IED Survivor’ in my bio. That was not true and it was wrong. But truly I’m sorry from the bottom of my heart,” he continued.
What’s worse, is that Mr. Markham DID serve. 2005-1010, as he says. He is pretty non-specific about it, merely saying he was “in the military” or referring to “military service” rather than using grown-up words like “Army” or “Marines”. The Sun in the UK says army, but with a lower-case a, so I tend not to credit that report as strictly factual. The Sun
It’d be nice for him to set the record verifiably straight.
“I have always tried to promote positivity and support for others, especially veterans. But I understand that my actions here contradict that. I take full responsibility for it,” he said later in the video, before telling his followers that he hopes to eventually regain their trust. People
Gotta give him some credit for coming out, admitting it, and apologizing. That in itself is more than a huge chunk of Walts and SV folks ever do in their lives.
But – I find it hard to believe that someone could serve 5 years in any branch and get upset over being called less than handsome? Man, if you’re ugly as a mud fence and make a train take a dirt road – OWN IT. Don’t blame it on some chickenshit’s IED.
Sing along: “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother” “He ain’t blowed up, he’s just ugly.”

That last line! 🤣
Lies take a lot of energy. Tell the truth, even if you have to confess to the lie and move on with it. Well, there is one world class liar named William Jefferson Clinton… and then there’s that Kenyan creep, most televangelists, virtually all of MSM and now we have the internet! IIRC, is that what the most of the purpose of TAH is about?
In my day Influencers called themselves Manufacturers Reps. I’m still not “down” with all these Youtube entrepreneurs but there are quite a few really interesting and educational sites that are worthy of indulgence.
I was buying the IED story, especially when he said that it blew his lips off and they had to replace them with some material from his gluteal region.
Holy Cow! He’s an A$$ Ki$$er!
Attention seeking “influencer” getting what he deserved. Nothing to see here.
NEXT!
Admits it, but still a dirtbag. A bit less though.
Maybe he served in the United Methodist Army as a kid?
Anyone who’s been in the service has been called all sorts of things.
And his face would make a train take a dirt road.
Looks like Warren Zevon.
IMO he looks like someone you’d see panhandling at an interstate highway exit or street corner.
