“Guardian columnist Glenn Greenwald on Wednesday night ripped into Rep. Peter King (R-NY) and pointed out the congressman’s support of the Irish Republican Army (IRA). Greenwald told CNN’s Anderson Cooper that it was ‘staggering’ to see King call for him to face criminal charges for reporting on secret information about the National Security Agency’s surveillance program. ‘It’s bad enough to call for that, it is extraordinarily menacing that he did so based on a complete falsehood, the idea that I ever threatened to [disclose CIA agents],’ he said. Greenwald said he had no idea why King was making the false accusation.”
