LOL. Just absolute through-the-roof levels of cope. Conspiracy theorist calling everyone else conspiracy theorists.
There's a reason the other "Russiagate" hysterics have just shut up, will completely ignore it and/or just tweet through it.
#Actually it was never about getting court verdicts...which is why we've all endlessly cited the Mueller Report saying he couldn't find criminal conspiracy (due to massive obstruction & limited jurisdiction) as proof that "Russiagate" was a total hoax & ignored the public record.
Anyway, Glenn & Matt Taibbi are just going to tweet through it. Never acknowledging that their narrative that they claimed discredited everybody else, completely discredited them. Just pretend like it never happened. Because that's what #vindicated 'journalists' do.
If anyone left is not blocked by Matt Taibbi or Glenn Greenwald, please feel free to reply to their unrelated tweets inquiring if they plan to address on the Durham faceplant (of course not).
How many times has he written this exact same tweet, with these exact same pictures? 30? 40? The dude just repeats himself like he's some mental patient, rocking back and forth, yelling into the void. Definitely more important to tweet about this for the 50th time....
"It makes me physically sick to see these people call themselves journalists" lol
"This 'cartel' (people doing actual reporting on my awful RW friends) are the real enemies, not Mr. Trump (who I do certainly support)."
Now that I think about it, it is literally the exact same rant, word for word, that he used to 'come back' from hiding from all the bad Trump news (and positive Dem policy news), when he was using his sick husband to hide from the news cycle.
Dude must have tweeted out that same picture of Taylor Lorenz upwards of 100 times. Easy. Normal guy. Totally a real journalist and not just an insane egomaniac ranting over and over.

Over 24 hrs since the latest Durham faceplant & all of the "vindicated" journalists (@mtaibbi, @mtracey & @ggreenwald) have all just not said a single thing. Just pretended like it never happened. For the very thing that supposedly proved their entire Russia Hoax story. Pathetic.
I don't even know how to describe this behavior. You, a supposed journalist, sent tweet after tweet about how this 'investigation' proved you right and discredited all of your enemies (and proved why people were right to distrust the Lib'rul Media yada yada yada)...
and then when the actual case comes down and doesn't go your way, you're not even intellectually honest enough to try to spin it, but since you know there's no spin, you just pretend it never happened and tweet through it. Doesn't get more cowardly than that.
Seriously, some of us have had her pegged for years and years. While the internet Left (and the Sanders campaign) were praising as some sort of 'progressive' hero. Many of us saw right through it.
And some high profile people like (ie. @HillaryClinton, @neeratanden, etc.) were viciously attacked for calling a spade a spade.
When you start as a hardcore islamophobe, war-on-terror hawk and genocide denialist, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see where this is all heading.
Shades of when all the 'anti-imperialist' dipshit on this site absolutely melted down when Trump bombed some empty air field in Syria. Slaughtering civilians is a-ok, just don't touch the innocent infrastructure.
A whole lot of Snowden revisionism on the TL today. I'll just say this: almost everything that him & Glem claimed from start to finish was either a gross exaggeration or an outright lie, including the US forcing him to Russia (that was his choice, egged on by Assange).
If he had just stolen and released the stuff about the bulk metadata, he would have some sort of claim to being a whistleblower. But he didn't. He also never once tried to raise any complaints internally, despite him lying and claiming that he had done so.
He stole several millions of other completely unrelated documents. By his own admission, he didn't read them all. After the metadata story, 90% of the 'bombshells" were just blowing US espionage against foreign actors ("wow the US spies on China!"). Not even close to WBing.
