Jim Jordan is at least as much of an establishment swamp creature as Kevin McCarthy is, and he's also voting for McCarthy to be Speaker.👇 https://t.co/f016B2JKM0 — PolitiTweet.org

@haildvorak Demonstrating what pro-establishment lackey frauds the Squad are, and how gullible, desperate and easily manipulated pseudo-radical leftists like you are for following them and thinking you're doing something defiant while they keep you herded meekly behind the Dem Party. — PolitiTweet.org

@steven__knight Order is the highest value only for fascists. It's actually healthy and good to have intra-party disagreements over policy, ideology and leadership. Dems march lockstep in unity, doing what they're told by Leaders. Congrats on such a noble accomplishment. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Meanwhile, here's @RepMTG - who for months has vowed to vote for McCarthy - explaining why she's doing so despite knowing much of her base disagrees. Many reasons to disagree here with MTG, but politicians who knowingly diverge from their base on principle should earn trust: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In fact, not only is Hakeem Jeffries one of the purest symbols of lobbyist-driven servitude to status quo power the Squad claims to oppose, but Jeffries has never hidden his contempt for the Squad, funding their opponents and working to defeat them. Yet they still cheer him.😬 https://t.co/k97fDpIJ4C — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

All Squad members voted in acclimation for Hakeem Jeffries as their Leader: the living, breathing embodiment of K Street sleaze, of everything the Squad claims to oppose. Yes, it enabled Dems to be more orderly - obedience to leaders always does - but it's odd to be proud of it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These GOP holdouts are doing what the Squad never has the courage to do: use their power to defy party leadership in order to extract concessions. Not sure why it's a source of pride to show how you always submit to Party orders like good soldiers. Not much dignity in that. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave @MrsEmmyM That's the point. The Squad snaps into line when told to, every time -- unless you know of totally secret concessions they got that nobody knows about to violate their pledge to activists by changing their vote. Look at this thread from the activists: https://t.co/i2Vm01RWzV — PolitiTweet.org

@BlueBoxDave @MrsEmmyM Here's what happened to AOC when she tried to get one of the most powerful House Committees: House Dems humiliated her by overwhelmingly choosing a centrist Dem who actually voted *against* Pelosi for Speaker: https://t.co/Iy6uECP4QQ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@phillips_allen1 You're literally a well-known neo-Nazi who wants to arm and fund Nazi militias on the other side of the world. You want gay men in concentration camps and favor the gassing of Jews. I don't think you're in much of a position to criticize others. And you sound like Joe McCarthy. — PolitiTweet.org

@Real_MKNY @BlueBoxDave @MrsEmmyM @AOC Because she spent a full year chanting "Defund the Police!" When NYC cut $1 billion from the police budget in 2020, she said that's not enough. "Defund the Police means Defund the Police," she said. She promised activists a NO vote on the $2b in 2021. https://t.co/ef7BH1WyO4 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave @MrsEmmyM LOL. Nothing. That's the point. They don't extract concessions when they have leverage and power. They were in the exact position GOP House members are now - Pelosi needed their votes to become Speaker - and they rejected activists' demands to demand a Medicare for All vote. https://t.co/1RmOBdSRXS — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave @MrsEmmyM On the point of the Squad's dissenting votes, they *only* vote NO when they know it won't matter and the bill will pass anyway. They all promised activists a NO vote on Pelosi's $2b extra for the Capitol Police: until it turned out she needed their votes: https://t.co/Kc1BDwd5O2 — PolitiTweet.org

@RuleofLawman @davidmweissman @BillKristol I don't think you know what "ad hominem" means, but since I know how emotionally upset liberals get whenever their neocon allies and heroes are criticized, I won't press the point. https://t.co/7HvB4MUjzn — PolitiTweet.org

Remember CNN+, which lasted 21 full days before being put out of its misery? 🫢 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Crashing from the high of the Trump addiction: What's even more devastating about CNN and MSNBC losing such a high percentage of their audience in one year is they started with so little to begin with. Liberal cable was dying before Trump and are now headed to permanent oblivion — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@davidmweissman @BillKristol Such as Bill Kristol's entire adult life that he devoted to cheering, empowering and architecting the lowest, scummiest and most destructive parts of the Republican Party, before transforming overnight into liberal icon and heroic symbol of The Rule of Law? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave Our nightly show is an hour long, like most shows. But our individual segments are usually 15-20 minutes. And they're video broadcasts, making it even easier to process the arguments. But I definitely understand being busy: there are many things I wish I could read but can't.🤷‍♂️ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave I trust you're extremely busy writing for all the important outlets. But that's the point: I wouldn't analyze let alone criticize one of your columns without first reading it. If I were too busy to read it, I'd just refrain from comment. Also: https://t.co/nFnT5sn9GS — PolitiTweet.org

@CreakyNCrabby Do you know who Joseph McCarthy and J. Edgar Hoover are? Do you know that you sound exactly like their love child? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also, using the brand new precedent Nancy Pelosi created when rejecting the GOP Caucus' choices to sit on the 1/6 Committee -- That. Was. Not. Normal. -- the GOP Caucus should reject any Dems for the new Church Committee who support CIA/FBI/DHS's interference and censorship. https://t.co/wbjAs1ZDq2 — PolitiTweet.org

@SF202017 @googoo4gaga6 @rumblevideo People who are professional journalists have to be paid for their work like any other type of worker. So no, I couldn't produce a nightly live one-hour show without compensation. It's also very expensive to do it right: with a new, full studio and a large competent team. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Ryan_TreeFiddy It's right in the next tweet. Part of the GOP holdouts for McCarthy's Speakership are demanding greater budgets and powers for the new Church Committee to investigate FBI, CIA, DHS, etc. This person thought "Church Committee" means Congress would empower and create churches. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Whatever one thinks of all the maneuvers around the Kevin McCarthy debacle, it appears a fait accompli that there will be a new and serious Church Committee to investigate the abuses of CIA, FBI and DHS into our domestic politics. That is something to celebrate no matter what. https://t.co/9SVTHOHGC3 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

😳 So many Dems and liberals have no idea of history before Trump. Below is a particularly hilarious example, but it's the reason why so many love Bill Kristol, David Frum, the Cheneys, Joe Scarborough, Nicolle Wallace, CIA's Kremlin-agent scripts. They know nothing about them. https://t.co/FjkJDkUXt1 — PolitiTweet.org

@googoo4gaga6 @rumblevideo I'm a huge supporter of Substack. I think their platform is vital and I support them fully. But when agreeing to produce a nightly live show with Rumble - a free speech platform I also strongly support - part of the deal was putting our after-show and writing on Locals. — PolitiTweet.org
