Taibbi admitted he was wrong on Ukraine because there's no other way to spin it, he was out of options. He's still giving his new and largely right wing audience what it wants: "Elon isn't right wing, give me one example

Are you implying that there are no homeless people in Europe? Or problems with poverty or access to healthcare?
