And literally within 5 minutes........here he comes!
And it goes without saying but all of these people enabled/egged him on/looked the other way when Glenn was doing this same shit to people who weren't his colleagues. And he's been doing this for a while. But now that it hits close to home, it's different.

This whole thing is insane. But I just can't help but chuckle out how tailor-made this story is for certain 'journalists' who spent years ranting about DEEP STATE, mccarthyism & political actors using ex-spies (THE DOSSIER) on political opponents, but since its not Dems...
they will not even mention it (0 tweets over at Glemwald Industries). Like, you ranted endlessly about McCarthyism...what's more McCarthyite than trying to entrap members of govt for not being loyal to the president? And it involves an ex-spy & fucking Erik Prince, too.
Let's try it in alternate reality: The most odious org on earth, the Center for American Progress, hires an ex-Deep State spook to train operatives to secretly record members of the govt who don't pledge 100% loyalty to Joseph R. Biden.
One of the most noticeable things about the Glem-Taibbi axis is just how big of cowards they actually are. They will rant endlessly on a subject, with name-calling, tone-policing & accusations and then when asked a simple question about the heart of the matter, just turtle away.
Matt never responded to the senator's very basic, straightforward question. But of course right after he had time to nutpick at some guy w 10 followers. That guy got a response. B/c he's a coward and knows that he can't say what he actually believes bc he'll really show his ass.
Glenn does the same. All throughout the Russia Stuff, which, it's safe to say, nobody talked about more than him, Glenn would be asked to state basic beliefs ("Did Russia interfere in the election?" "Do you want Donald Trump to win?") and he would just never answer.
Btw- his whole multiple tweet rant against Ben Collins (for calling out the Newsmax nutter lady) was over an hour after the news story about Trump's DOJ getting the phone records of critical journalists, which he has still not even acknowledged. Priorities and all...
FFS this group of anti-Dem losers (Lee, Grim, Glem, Tracey, etc.) are all just circle-jerking around with the same fallacious bs. There is nothing that can be construed in this Bernie tweet as 'defending Liz Cheney'. It's purely a statement of fact about the GOP.
Here's Grim too, of course Because they are all disingenuous creeps who only care about owning the libs.
Notice how none of them have anything to actually say about the substance; the GOP is pushing a Big Lie designed to further subvert democracy & make it harder for minorities to vote. But they don't care about that at all, only scoring point s on the 'shit libs.'
"Liberals love to dole out self-righteous sanctimonious lectures, full of a string of 18 different adjectives, while tweeting from their poolside cabanas in foreign countries. Tune in tonight where I talk about everyone else's hypocrisy live with Tucker Carlson."
BTW- If you were curious what the context of this insane projection, it was of course about defending Tucker Carlson (with whataboutism, naturally), because what else does he do these days...
Real Glem-heads remember when Wikileaks dumped all the emails from the Soy hacks, full of people's personal info, private convos & medical records, and Glem gleefully spread it around without a single concern for anyone's privacy. As is obvious, completely situational ethics
One of the private emails that he delighted in tweeting about was one journalist (can't remember who) calling him an 'asshole' in private. IIRC his justification for why it was not a gross abuse of privacy & actually good was that Sony did something one time with the USG.
It's fairly obvious to point out but Glem (and the other 'privacy' frauds) absolutely love invasions of personal privacy when it's someone they see as an enemy (USG, Dems, random libs, etc). The only reason Glem now gives a shit is bc the Gab ppl are his allies.
