You know what DOES stop him from being such a critic?

NOT ACTUALLY CRTICIZING THEM ON ANY FREQUENT BASIS. He gives Republicans a pass all the fucking time and he's okay on one issue? So the fuck what, so was Matt Gaetz. So is Glenn Greenwald.

I didn't know some of the stupid stuff he's said, but I just took a look at his substack. Damn near every article I can see on there is a direct attack on this administration for being fascist. In every Youtube/podcast appearance I've heard him on, he's attacked the right. I've never been a twitter user and maybe I'm not reading it right, but 99% of his posts under the post tab or hot posts are attacking Trump, Cruz, Rubio, Musk, or the Supreme Court. He is not the same as Gaetz or Greenwald.

No, he's a journalist. He's a reporter. He has worked for major publications. Stop bullshitting me, you're better than this. You know what damages a reporter/journalist's reputation and credibility?

Dishonesty and inconsistency. You know what full well.

I'm assuming you're talking about him dunking on Dems on Twitter, not what he says when he's writing as a journalist for one of these major publications. The reason we're talking about him at all right now is that he's figured out that you need to straddle the line between shitposter and serious journalist to actually get any buzz in this godawful media environment.

Oh, you didn't?

That smug piece of shit literally wrote Assad propaganda to exculpate him from the chemical weapons attacks.

And no, it puts him on Tulsi's level. It 100 percent makes his criticism less valid when you consider where he presents it and the dishonest clipping

I'd need to know more about this but doesn't look good. I don't see how that makes criticism of a literal CIA agent Democrat who seems to be implying that it would be okay to go to war with cartels so long as there's a vote. That's not okay, vote or no vote, and it shouldn't be hard for the Democrats to say so. We don't need to go to war with the cartels in Mexico. People want no new wars. Say that. If you want to make the point about Congressional power, make that point, don't tie it to warmongering.
