Taibbi has always been more of a Left-Libertarian. He may well get fired from Rolling Stone after this, though.

The “LEFT” has done it’s best to ruin America...whether it can be recovered is a long shot...I do believe they MAY have overplayed there hand now, however....

Taibbi - a little more honest than most. It’s a start.

As for Lee Fang - the psycho Marxist Left want to “de-Fang” him since it is illegal to “Hang” Chinese anymore.

This is getting to be more exciting that the executions of the French elite during the 1789 Revolution but this one has more little “Robespierres” wannabes than the original one.

"they are trying to act as cover for the left here. they agree with whats going on but realize their comrades have overplayed their hand, shown too much truth of what they are all about"

I'm like you, I don't trust none of them freaks when they outwardly appear to have had an epiphany. They haven't suddenly done a theological about face, they've made a strategic retreat to gather strength.

I read the original RS article. It begins with some anti Trump rhetoric , of course. But, then goes on to talk about how progressives are too easily offended and leave no room for thought, even when backed by facts.

The article Is posted at 23 and is really well done. Just skip over the Anti Trump stuff at the beginning. You’ll be surprised.

The interesting part is he’s getting the same hateful reaction on twitter that was given to other leftist journalists for trying to be ‘fair’ (fair means including David Dorn into the equation ). Those journalists were ostracized or forced to apologize etc

I know exactly who they are. But, they are eating their own and it always interesting to see it happen.

Well well, the monster Jann Werner created has now bit his minions in the butt, huh? Suck it up buttercup, you're part and parcel of it.

Matt Taibbi has been talking about the stupidity of russiagate along with lots of other Bernie-affiliated dems. They still don’t support Trump, they just realize the stupidity of this Maoist moment.

When they bring out an actual guillotine then it'll get REALLY exciting.

One of the missions I set for myself was to turn Taibbi into a Trump voter. So far it looks like progress is being made.
