Just taking this absurd Taibbi tweet at face value (rather than pointing out the obvious, that Matt & his buddies ignored/defended infinitely worse & more pervasive corruption during the Trump years)... it would be like a 2 hour story, tops. In reality, probably not even.
This is just so comical. Glenn was DEAD SILENT for 4+ years, when Trump & his family were profiting off the presidency like never before. And when he wasn't dead silent, he was whatabouting it with some weak tea 'whatabout duh Dems' BS. Such transparent, disingenuous wankers.
Here's how much Glenn cared about familial 'corruption' during the Trump years (in between getting retweets from Donald Trump Jr.):
"Oh, you think Joe Biden is corrupt, well here are all the previous people who were corrupt. It's not his fault, he's just following DC's example" is a thing you will never hear Glem say.
When Donald Trump's fixer is caught soliciting bribes for him: Get over it. Standard DC sleeze. Just how things work)
When Biden's son tries to sell his artwork: This is one of the most grave acts of corruption I have ever witnessed. Clear as day. Brazen influence peddling.

Lying about name-searching, something which he does regularly ("I stopped years ago")....just extremely pathetic and Trumpian. Could make a whole psych study out of this man's brain.
"This is something I did years ago but stopped because it was too time consuming."
Extremely something (gratifying? enraging?) to watch all of the "Left" people slowly realize all of the things us dumb Libs have been saying about Glenn for years.
People say, "Oh I used to respect him. He was a great journalist." No. He's always been like this. It may have been a little more subtle but he's always been the same guy- a deranged, petty, dishonest ranting loon whose only concern is 'winning'; the truth is irrelevant to him.
And of course he always responds in the same way- with invective & ad hom, as he has for years. The TYT video lays out specific issues where Glenn is being dishonest and Glenn's response is this: "ACTUALLY you ignored the point, you sweaty, heavy-breathing lunatic."
Joe Biden's repeated ice cream-related detours may seem like good fun, but does he risk alienating millions of lactose intolerant Americans? My latest for Politico:
People are reacting harshly to my (non-existent) article and per Politico rulebook, that just proves that I am extremely right. Next up, I post a picture of a random email I got from doodooguy42069@yahoo.com calling me a swear word for sympathy.
Brb sending out an email to my journo-list serve to have all my buddies tweet about how great of a journalist/person I am (aka "doing a Haberman.")
Ahhh yeah. I thought this guy sounded familiar. And then I remembered....this was the guy that Glenn defended from the PC cancel culture libs. He even shared a Gofundme for him lol.
Since Brie Brie finally decided to break her silence (by bravely issuing a 'no comment' statement at 1 AM, 2.5 wks later, available only to her Patreon subscribers) lets take a look at how she reacted to things when it was the opposite circumstances (ie. politically advantageous)
"Morality matters. A moral response to this sexual assault charge would involve admission, contrition, and penance. None of which I've seen. Alienated voters are feeling gaslit."
Here she is repeatedly shaming @soledadobrien for her 'silence.'
(Almost 3 week later, Brie still hasn't tweeted about her co-hosts allegations of course)
