MSNBC conspiracy theorist decries right-wing conspiracy theories

[Washington Examiner] One of MSNBC’s most prolific peddlers of conspiracy theories is here to tell you all about the dangers of conspiracy theories. How's that for expertise?

MSNBC contributor and self-declared U.S. intelligence "expert" Malcolm Nance, who has made a comfortable living in the Trump-era writing about Russia’s supposed control of the White House, spoke recently with the New Yorker’s Isaac Chotiner.

In the interview, aptly titled "Malcolm Nance on the Danger of Conspiracy Theories," Chotiner pressed the intelligence "expert" about the time he defended MSNBC host Joy Reid’s hilariously absurd assertion that time traveling cyber bandits had hacked her personal blog and retrospectively uploaded homophobic articles bearing her byline.

When Reid alleged in 2018 that she had been the victim of a far-reaching cyber conspiracy, Nance rushed to her assistance, tweeting, "Clearly there is a Discredit & Humiliate campaign afoot. Apparently all progressives are secretly anti-gay bloggers. This has Wikileaks & AltRight written all over it. Expect more."

Chotiner, who has a gift for gutting his subjects with their own words, asked Nance, "Do you stand by this?"

The MSNBC contributor responded:

#2 I don't see why, if you could hack someones blog or website you couldn't also change the dates on different files without resorting to time travel.

I suspect Joy Reid is a homophobe who got caught, but that doesn't mean Malcolm Nance defense is crazy.

#3 Maybe a degree of paranoia is what made Nance good at his (day) job.

But he should either quit moonlighting (if he's still doing his old work) and prob'y keep his mouth shut.
