Given the history of the second half of the 20th century, any media leftist that doesn't actively repudiate the agency constantly and at every opportunity, never mind one that actively works with their arms and associates, is 👀 imo.
I mean, I think any public figure on the left should automatically detail any and all possible natsec/intel interaction they have ever had, and keep us updated, as a precondition for credibility. Jesus christ, the history ffs.
That's fair. The fact that it is even a possibility in the first place is a pretty big concern and why I'd never hold him up as a standard bearer. There are a lot of great public speakers who don't have that issue.
