Whenever Glenn Greenwald attacks a woman in what will inevitably feed his right wing frothers, his attacks are based on false representations.

This is no exception.
Someone set a timer for how long it takes Glenn to go on white supremacist Tucker Carlson's show to magnify this false claim, just to make good and sure that Hennessey gets some threats.

Glenn will pretend--as he always does--he had nothing to do with the threats.
There are more productive ways to complain about Hennessey's appointment, particularly if you once posed as someone who gave a shit about surveillance, as Glenn did. But instead, it's about Russia for Glenn.
Here's what Hennessey said to me about how pointless Glenn's surface commentary on Russia was for a piece I wrote in 2018 on Glenn.
