These people got literally everything wrong. They spun wild DEEP STATE conspiracies that did not even slightly materialize. They completely ignored the existence of the Senate Intel report. And then just decided, 'hah, we were the ones who were vindicated!"
Wrong, too. Literally ever single thing she wrote about "The Russia Hoax" was just completely wrong. Maybe she accidentally backed in to a thing or two, but there is no reality-based universe where she was vindicated. thefederalist.com/2020/09/29/bre…

This innocent, 'powerless' citizen who.....assaulted a cop to the point he nearly died.
Being a 100% committed anti-Dem contrarian means you just paint yourself into the most absurd, contradictory positions.
All through the BLM protests it was, "these people are violent thugs & the media will not cover this. And plus, people like the cops." Then, as soon as it is a bunch of Trump supporters getting violent, they're suddenly 'powerless' & it's snitching to want to see any justice.
Glenn and Michael (& co.), through their dedication to just opposing anything Dems say is bad, have decided that president Donald Trump, the GOP, his supporters & people who staged a violent insurrection are all powerless. The *real* powerful are random female journalists.
I've mentioned this before, but during the Snowden years, Glenn almost exclusively dealt with criticism (almost all of it substantive) through unleashing harassment on anyone who dared raise questions.
The only real difference b/w then & now was that his harassment crew that he would unleash on people were made up of "Weird Twitter" which more or less just basically transformed into Rose Emoji twitter. Now it's his incel/alt-right/Fox News fans harassing the Lib'rul media.
The whole thing is actually pretty ironic given the whole story was supposedly about 'transparency', Glenn & Ed refused to answer literally any questions about their own behavior (Ie. How many docs did you take? Did you read them all? etc). They just ignored & harassed, instead.
Just a reminder that all your favorite leading anti-Dem 'journalists' pushed a false rape smear (in order to get Bernie to win) by this completely uncredible person. And with endless cynical uses of "believe women" & "#metoo"....then they just moved on like nothing ever happened.
And all of Left twitter (alongside the GOP, who were co-pushing these attacks....as always seems to be the case) shamed everyone in to submission, at least for a while, with 'you don't believe women' & such, so that ppl were afraid to speak out against her obvious changing story.
Dems passed one of the most substantial relief bills in history & the new president is absolutely crushing it on covid/vaccines (the one topic that the media covered endlessly)....so, of course they immediately pivot to regurgitating GOP talking points to create a 'scandal'.
Same shit they did last time (See: Benghazi). The media needs 'scandal'. Success is boring. Especially when it's a Dem president (notice theres no concern trolling about GOPers giving Biden kudos or w/e). So we get whatever faux-outrage the GOP cooks up as the conventional wisdom
Political media: Biden will have failed if he doesn't hit his vaccine target. We'll be watching
*Biden blows past the target*
Political media: Well, we'll have to leave it there. Next up the CRISIS at the border. Why this is a failure for Biden..
Yet again, just a completely 100% generic RW account now. Zero difference b/w him and Redsteeze Stephen Miller guy.
The cruelty has always been the point with Glenn. He is a mean-spirited, petty, small person. So the full slide to RW grievance & saying shit like this was really not drastically different from his behavior when he was a 'celebrated' left-ish 'journalist'.
I didn't post about it the time, bc honestly I could fill my entire TL with the deranged shit he posts (and I already do), but it's in the same vein. Glenn, Mr. dog lover, just had to go out of the way to take a shot at Biden (and Hillary Clinton!) for the Major nothingburger.
