Disgraced political pundit Mark Halperin reportedly threatened MSNBC network chief Phil Griffin for refusing to help him resurrect his career.

Halperin, 54, who is nearly two years removed from being accused of sexual misconduct by numerous women, was allegedly trying to restart his career with the stars of Morning Joe, but the network nixed the idea. Speaking with his former boss, Halperin allegedly began “dishing vague threats,” according to the Daily Beast. Griffin was also “furious about the conversation.”

Halperin has been trying to restart his career as a political commentator in recent months. He apologized to the women who accused him of misconduct during an interview with SiriusXM radio host Michael Smerconish, while Morning Joe played the clip and highlighted it positively. “I wasn’t a perfect person when I made these mistakes,” Halperin told Smerconish during the interview earlier this year. “I’m not a perfect person now. I’m happy to be judged by perfect people.”

More recently, he came out and announced an upcoming book titled, How to Beat Trump: America’s Top Political Strategists on What It Will Take. Halperin was able to interview 75 Democratic strategists for the book, but strong backlash ensued. Journalist and author Emily Miller, one of the accusers, was quick to denounce the book deal and argued that it should be abandoned as a result of “the pain it’s causing victims.”
