Was Michael Wolff unavailable?

wtf? That guy is a complete nut job woth a very checkered past.

This is a puzzling move. Mr. Grayson is many things. "Arbiter of truth" is not one of them.

is this a joke? Alan Grayson harassed my colleague @IsaacDovere after i wrote a story with @BresPolitico and @MarcACaputo about allegations of domestic abuse. https://t.co/RkipNxtQgB

And, oh yeah, he's been accused of domestic assault too… https://t.co/YMCqzYtPby
— Josh Kraushaar (@HotlineJosh) February 1, 2018
How does Grayson rate the claim that he's been credibly accused of domestic abuse and got physical with a reporter who asked about it? https://t.co/ZRBuQWmdja

Alan Grayson will really give that job some punch. https://t.co/kNddGaiEYJ

What a great time to associate with a dude accused of domestic violence. Really have your finger on the pulse of our society, @politifact

Fact Check: Does Alan Grayson beat women?
Yes.
— JWF (@JammieWF) February 1, 2018
Sweet, well we know Grayson is particularly qualified to fact check any stories involving women who have mysteriously fallen down stairs or run into doors…
— Potted Otter (@thePottedOtter) February 1, 2018
Fuck no, Alan Grayson is a wifebeating blowhard who threatened a reporter on tape. I'm a Democrat btw, but this guy is god awful.

Here’s a fact for PolitiFact: You’re a joke.
You’ve diminished your credibility considerably by hiring Grayson
— UNHINGED (@former_indy) February 1, 2018
And it’s not like they had much credibility left to begin with.
LMAO
— JWF (@JammieWF) February 1, 2018
Lol…this is a joke right?
— Wits McGee (@wits_mcgee) February 1, 2018
Are you freaking kidding me?
— Collusion Delusion (@Bmtgg4) February 1, 2018
Alan Grayson.
Seriously? https://t.co/jSIHPWpIvv
— RBe (@RBPundit) February 1, 2018
I’m embarrassed for you Politifact. Alan Grayson??? https://t.co/iyEIyYkYcs
— Yashar Ali 🐘 (@yashar) February 1, 2018
ROFL.
Grayson's name should not be within 10 paragraphs of the word 'fact' in any piece of written journalism. https://t.co/Tomd4L4PXV
— Pradheep J. Shanker, M.D., M.S. (@Neoavatara) February 1, 2018
Lmao Grayson? Seriously? Yall aren't serious people https://t.co/0uuRfnRQtK

Well, that didn’t last long:
CLOWN SHOW! PolitiFact FIRES Alan Grayson after failing to check the facts (and getting DRAGGED)
