Matt Taibbi won't leave

I decided to subscribe to turncoat Matt Taibbi’s emails to see what he has to say. After a few emails, I decided I’ve had enough, so I unsubscribed. Three times. Unfortunately, his emails are still coming to me. Now I have to figure out how to move his emails to the spam folder on my new phone.
Edit:I found another way to unsubscribe on my new phone. Hopefully the other way will work.

I wonder what his articles were like before he went Bennedict Arnold.
I did hear he got a hefty pay raise. He’s only in it for the money?

When no one would pay attention to him, he entered stage left. Once the career path expands, take the elevator.

Impressive writing style. Pointed but funny.

The Great Derangement was about 9/11 theories and a hysterical take on going undercover at John Hagee’s born again church.

Griftopia was about the ultra rich control of everything

Insane Clown President trashed Trump and media coverage of him.

Taibbi got hit hard during Me Too mostly about his behavior as editor of Playboy Moscow right after the Soviets left power. He went full into bro anti-PC crap. He now seems to mostly be a Putin tool.
