@daguro @ggreenwald @Snowden You started this by making a ridiculous claim that I was lying about Snowden being on the plane. You just invented that. Now you’re grasping at “conflicting stories” blah blah blah. — PolitiTweet.org

@daguro @ggreenwald @Snowden They believed he was on the plane. They forced it down in an effort to arrest him. Try harder next time. — PolitiTweet.org

If the reports are accurate, Lukashenko’s government forcing this plane to land in an effort to arrest a dissident is a terrible crime. Interesting to contrast this with the Obama admin. forcing Evo Morales’s plane to land in 2013 in an effort to arrest a US dissident, @Snowden. — PolitiTweet.org

While conventional US troops are being withdrawn (the DoD calls it a "retrograde"), there are plans for Special Ops teams to continue striking, mercenary companies are hiring, and Biden has built in caveats that leave the door open for re-deployment. https://t.co/LoGZgaXNm6 — PolitiTweet.org

Many Congressional Democrats joined Rep. Liz Cheney in trying to slow-walk Trump's Afghanistan withdrawal. So did some officials in the Pentagon and US intelligence. Powerful figures tried to derail the plan when Biden announced he would move forward. https://t.co/LoGZgaXNm6 — PolitiTweet.org

@LailaAlarian thank you for writing this. The way these bombings are written about seeks to erase the identity or humanity of so many people. And your piece is a poignant reminder of the scope of these horrifying actions and their consequences on ordinary people trying their best to live. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a powerful personal essay by @LailaAlarian about Israel destroying the apartment her grandfather spent his life savings to buy in Gaza. It was in the building housing the AP, Al Jazeera, and other media outlets that Israel bombed on Saturday. https://t.co/7b2LmV9HUI — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden could have tossed out Trump's Afghanistan withdrawal plan, but he didn't. Still, there are lots of issues unresolved, including CIA and Special Ops strike teams, mercenaries and contractors and "over-the-horizon" operations: https://t.co/1FrExATLPP — PolitiTweet.org

@cj4revolution The apartheid regime was considered a key US ally in the Cold War and against the Soviet Union. The dominant view in the White House at the time was it was necessary to support it for geopolitical reasons. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

Joe Biden was absolutely correct in his 1986 denunciation of the South African apartheid regime. This exact speech could be given about Israel's campaign of annihilation against the Palestinians. But Biden has supported that for 50 years. https://t.co/JfGN9IOb66 — PolitiTweet.org
