I agree Higgins is a "mainstream acceptable" journalist and thus suspect and, as I noted in my original post on this book, he had previous with Greenwald.

I definitely distinguish between Greenwald and Taibbi (Dore I'm just done with because it's so screamingly obvious, way more so than with Taibbi [with whom he's lately started teaming up to spout MAGA garbage]. There's just no debate left to be had there, at least for me. Wasting no more time on him. Go to his channel page, click on videos and scroll through them and look at the subjects. "Matt and Jimmy Reconsider Climate Change" was one of the recent highlights. Almost no "anti-israel" commentary; about two very short videos out of the first hundred and fifty I looked at. Lots of stuff about RFK Jr, vaccines and Musk/DOGE though. Stick a fork in his ass, he's done).

Greenwald however still does stand up for his principles; free speech being a strong one and he's been critical of the recent madness in the Mump administration. The role of Thiel in his shiny new platform is still a cause for concern but his output has changed the least out of the three of them.
