So, my current take on #TaraReade… is that she’s used some form of this baseline harassment narrative for 27 years. She used it with friends and family to excuse her termination (days apart, we now know) from Biden’s office.Whatever the reason, we know it … 1/11
happened. Naturally, she’d tell friends an exes a cover story. Almost everyone does. She told it in different ways over the years, as a kind of go-to reason why things were less than optimal in her life. Over the years, she gets less and less careful about how … 2/11
she remembers successive iterations of the core story. Since she had worked for Biden, the hazy narrative she used was sufficient for most listeners, and had a natural currency in the circles she wanted to be part of. So she spent it liberally. And each time she … 3/11
did, she got bolder and more salacious with the narrative. It was at worst, harmless fun for her at that point, but she always knew she might be able to use her practiced narrative at a later date. She then ages a lot, the bitterness of middle age sets in, and her … 4/11
politics got more ideological and strident. She realizes her base narrative in the #metoo era might be weaponizable against Biden with a just a few tweaks to that well worn baseline narrative. As a devout Berner, fired by Biden’s staff, she was surrounded by … 5/11
people who would relish that weapon. As she noodled the idea, she dabbled with different approaches on Twitter to see who might bite. Greenwald learns of it from a sycophantic blogger and tasks his attack dog ( Grim) to bring it all home. One or more people or … 6/11
staff from team Greenwald gets closer to her, doing the foundation work for a big ratfuck of Biden to come (that’s what they live for), and that was the source of all her inane, Intercept-driven, pro-Putin positions seeped into her daily diet of Twitter agitprop.. … 7/11
Then Greenwald tool , Katie Halper blogs it to kick off the whole drama just as Bernie withdrew, and meta-opportunist Krystal Ball did what Krystal always does; jumped on another passing gravy train,. Now Tara realizes her life is that baseline narrative forever, … 8/11
and she’s decided to just go all in and cash out where she possibly can, knowing the Bernie dead-enders will masturbate with her picture, and the Greenwald army of trolls and cheerleaders will give her all the air and ground support she needs to survive the coming … 9/11
spectacle. The book deal is probably already in her head, if not on the table. Just one snag in her scheme. She never thought about those termination codes in her employment history (unpacked by @STEMthebleeding), the questions they would raise, nor that the check … 10/11
@STEMthebleeding fraud charge they dovetail nicely with would ever see the light of day after 27 years. But now they have. Game on.

Am I warm? 11/11
Not only does #TaraReade's mother calling @CNN NOT disprove my theory, but in fact, helps support it. She was so convincing in blowing smoke over her termination, that her mom was justifiably outraged and wanted to do something about it. Most mothers would.
Correction: Should have read, "to excuse her termination(s)." We know from official records she was terminated twice, just 4 days apart. We don't know why she was reinstated, then shit-canned again, but the codes suggest something worth extreme sanctioning for. … 1/2
