“During the interview, Max B. said matter-of-factly that Obama is the person pulling Puppet Biden’s strings, and that the “Biden” administration is in fact Obama’s third term.

He also said that the Obama faction of the party, which overlaps with the Hillary Clinton faction, is made up of people who “hate America,” meaning the broad majority of Americans who are not elite and/or woke.”

per MollyG at 8:42 – The Afghanistan Skeddle was no monumental screw-up as seen by so many Americans. It all came off according to plan, it just depends whose side you’re on.

You mean (SHE means?) in a kind of “Go forth and multiply” kind of way? Interesting idea.
Or because Max just happens to be such a gem, such a sweetie, such a miracle?

(Wonder if she feels the same way about DJT and DJTJR…or even Barron? On the other hand, What difference does it make?….)

Hillary meant that Max was Sidney’s “good deed” and that’s a beautiful sentiment. Unfortunately, Max shares his dad’s political views. Fortunately, he is unwise enough to share them publicly.

Oops!
“…saying with…” should be:
“…saying to…”

Indeed…
But I am mistaken, after all:
Actually, Hillary didn’t call Max B. “a mensch” but “a Mitzvah” (i.e., one of God’s commandments)—saying with his esteemed, dirtball father (and Clinton enforcer): “Your Max is a Mitzvah”; which doesn’t make a whole lot of sense but sort of—possibly—was intended to convey something like “mensch”. (Sort of.)

And so I should have written that Max is ‘…Hillary’s “mitzvah”(sic)…’
…if, perhaps, ‘A “mitzvah” too far’….

But maybe, just maybe…he has grown up a bit.
(OTOH, maybe not.)

Barry Meislin: Max Blumenthal is Sidney Blumenthal’s son. He’s as much a leftist as his dad and wrote a very nasty book about Republicans (from what I can gather from the Amazon reviews). His ties to the left give him insights into the workings of the Biden administration.

Precisely so. Max Blumenthal—“Hillary’s ‘mensch'”—is a proven partisan creep.

And yet, and yet…maybe he’s grown up a bit? Been reborn (as it were)? It CAN happen…

(Truth is I haven’t kept up with him.)

That is, maybe he’s not one to jettison his skepticism—and intelligence, or whatever—depending on which party’s in power (such as the insufferable Paul Krugman) ?

Or maybe he’s just a stopped clock….

After all, look at what’s happened to Glenn Greenwald—though I recognize that there’s a huge difference between them…since GG was always a fiercely contrarian journalist, no matter what one thought of his views or his logic, and Blumenthal was for so long an immature, toxic, obnoxious hack…

…but, once again, maybe he’s grown up…and has fundamentally TRANSFORMED!
(Still, it has got to make one wonder.)

In any event, thanks Molly G. for the most interesting link (though I think “reasonably honest man of the Left” may be pushing it just a bit…Would be nice if I’m wrong!).

I believe we all knew these things, but it’s interesting to hear them from someone whose Leftist credentials were impeccable until he told the truth and offered it for general consumption.

Not buying.
