Wakanda Warrior Woman Wants to Put Matt Taibbi in Jail

You don’t push back against the intelligence “community” and then walk away clean. We all know that. I’m sure Matt Taibbi knew that.

These attacks are especially dumb, though. This is not a serious movement to try to put him in jail.

Democratic congresswoman Stacey Plaskett has threatened Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi with prosecution for perjury, journalist Lee Fang revealed on Thursday.

Plaskett reportedly accused the independent journalist of deliberately misrepresenting the partnership between the social media giant and various US government agencies during his testimony before Congress last month.

Fang, who obtained and published a copy of the letter from the Virgin Islands representative, pointed out that Plaskett based her allegations largely on claims made by MSNBC host Mehdi Hassan during a recent confrontational interview between Hassan and Taibbi – accusations Fang had already debunked in a recent piece published on his Substack blog.

Here’s the full Hassan interview.

It’s way too long and it isn’t interesting.

(This sort of thing is not Taibbi’s strong suit, frankly, and I don’t think he really should have agreed to a hostile interview this long – I don’t know what exactly he thought there was to prove.)

Plaskett’s claim that Taibbi had deliberately mixed up CISA (the Homeland Security subsidiary, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency) and CIS (the Center for Internet Security) in order to falsely depict an unconstitutionally cozy relationship between the Department of Homeland Security and Twitter was based on a single tweet, which Taibbi had deleted upon realizing his error and which was unrelated to his March 9 testimony before the House Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.

As Taibbi pointed out to GrayZone journalist Aaron Maté on Friday, that comment referred to just one of many well-documented connections between DHS, its contractors (like CIS and the Election Integrity Partnership), and Twitter, and the Twitter Files ultimately revealed the platform was working with both CIS and CISA in the same manner.

Plaskett, who denounced Taibbi as a “so-called journalist” during the subcommittee hearing and accused him of posing a threat to people who disagreed with him, rounded out her letter with seven questions, demanding answers by this past Friday on the penalty of prosecution for perjury, which carries a five-year prison sentence. However, Taibbi claimed he did not even receive the message until the deadline had already arrived. Analyzing the document, Fang revealed it was co-written by staffers for House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and former House Judiciary Committee chair Jerry Nadler.

It’s just insane that the government gets caught doing this and then nothing happens other than a war on the guy who exposed them.

Jim Jordan won’t do SHIT.

JIM JORDAN IS NEVER GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT ANYTHING.

Instead, we’re going to put journalists in jail for exposing things that the government did that they admit are so illegal that entire groups of government officials could be put in prison.

Frankly, Medhi Hassan is more ridiculous than the negress pushing this hoax.

Why is this ape in our country (the former, I mean; I understand why the latter is here, lol)?

Fang just released proof that Hassan plagiarized a spanking article decades ago.

As a writer, let me tell you something: you can never, ever, ever live down plagiarism. Like, you’d have a better chance of living down raping a baby.

Plagiarism is the ultimate, unforgivable act.

It can be complicated, sometimes. Obviously, the brain is not totally conscious, and you read things, and then you think they’re your own thoughts. That can be embarrassing and something you should apologize and make amends for, but actual plagiarism, of the kind Hassan (and like, 80% of mainstream journalists) have been caught doing should be an absolute death sentence. These people should be forced to work in insurance for the rest of their lives.
