There are two very important components to this article.
1. "An all-time media blackout is in effect. We’re experiencing real-time Sovietization." I don't need to go further with this, everyone except a few will understand the implications and importance of this. Remember this is coming from a journalist that was once considered left.
2. "By any marker, this is an enormous news story. If we go by the usual measuring stick of American scandal, the Watergate story, this potentially meets or exceeds that, on almost every level. Does it reach into the current White House? Check. Was it a craven attempt to subvert the electoral process? Check again. Did a presidential candidate engineer a massive public deception? Yes, resoundingly. Did it involve intelligence agencies? Yes, and these weren’t amateurs like Nixon’s plumbers. These were 50 of the most powerful people in the intelligence world — including five former heads or acting heads of the Agency in Morell, John Brennan, Leon Panetta, Michael Hayden, and John McLaughlin — conspiring to meddle in domestic politics on a grand scale."
The second part of this is even more scary than the first part, which is saying something as the first part is scary enough. This would be the intelligence wing of government colluding with a candidate to lie for the purposes of subverting an election. You know, the things the CIA is only supposed to do in countries outside the US. This is state terror, propaganda, indoctrination, all rolled up in one package. When these agencies were created the public and the agencies were warned that if this ever happened then the republic was over. It's happened, and if it is left to stand as is, then you can kiss this republic goodbye, or you have already missed your opportunity to do just that. In other words, Taibbi says WARNING!
