Only had a moment to skim the article and Taibbi seems to be saying that the Trump Russia thing is pretty much a conspiracy and people are losing their minds trying to keep the idea alive.

Also, Taibbi has been one of the most outspoken anti globalist, anti wallstreet corruption journalists for years now. I've always enjoyed his efforts, they're well researched and for the most part he writes about important subjects. Why the hate? I never understood it.

Saw that article 2 weeks ago, typical Taibbi, and I agree its "russiaphobia" these days in the media.
I don't pay much attention to the MSM emotional programming though, gave up TV like 6+ years ago now (it's in the attic unplugged from everything if I ever change my mind on that - which I doubt), it seems easier to see the bias in online news and "filter out the noise". One of the best things I've ever done, IMHO.

A meme.i was just messing with you. If you want to look it up though it's supposedly David Brock's renamed Correct The Record online shill brigade.
