This is a mess. Anyone following the substance of the Twitter Files should recoil at Hasanโs spurious, uncorrected on-air Taibbi-ambush in defense of the security state. Lee Fang has put paid to Hasanโs spectacular misrepresentations, and the hosts of a media show ought to know it. The US left depends to a scary degree on media critics like Johnson AND Taibbi. We canโt afford sloppy takes like this.
