Look at the 2018 version of @AOC's definition of "trojan horses" -- members of marginalized groups exploited by Dems to advance the status quo -- in that above video clip from the interview she did with me. Is there anyone to whom it applies more clearly than Hakeem Jeffries? — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
But Dems are already exploiting identity politics to hide show shitty they are: touting Jeffries as the 1st-ever Black leader, they make him appear revolutionary instead of the supreme status quo guardian. AOC, in 2018, told me these are "trojan horses": https://t.co/HnWf8A7bf7 — PolitiTweet.org

What makes Bowman's support for Jeffries extra pathetic is Jeffries was one a key Dem leader who tried to save the job of Eliot Engel - the establishment Dem Bowman defeated - by endorsing him over Bowman. The Squad has no dignity: the more Dems scorn them, the more they submit. https://t.co/Th9MDv7C9u — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
Hakeem Jeffries is the notorious embodiment of everything sleazy and corporatist in establishment Dem politics, what "the Squad" claims to oppose: a corporate lawyer, he rose in the House by serving corporate lobbyists. So of course @JamaalBowmanNY supports him for Dem Leader: — PolitiTweet.org

Aloysio também foi Ministro das Relações Exteriores de Temer, o governo golpista. Eu entendo a visão da esquerda de que Bolsonaro é uma grave ameaça à democracia, mas esse “golpe” aconteceu não há 30 anos, mas apenas 6 anos atrás. Os golpistas devem ser barrados do governo Lula? — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
Em 2016, mostramos que o então Sen. Aloysio Nunes – líder pró impeachment de Dilma – fez uma viagem aos EUA na véspera da votação. Hj, Alckmin anunciou que Nunes é peça-chave da transição para relações exteriores. Nunes ainda é um "golpista"? https://t.co/cjsJMAe7Ef — PolitiTweet.org

(In case anyone objects to calling what's happening in Ukraine a "US proxy war," that's not a real debate. Top US officials and the most influential defense policy operatives in DC call it that repeatedly, as @NoahCarl90 documented here, because it is): https://t.co/X7Rd7CUIs2 — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
Don't worry: I'm sure these billions and weapons flying around DC and Ukraine are being meticulously accounted for. That's why Dems and GOP united to block @RandPaul's amendment for oversight. No need! Raytheon, CIA and Ukraine are famous for transparent, honest accounting. https://t.co/Wba5quEWJ9 — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
If we project out to a year, that would be $120 billion each year to fuel the US proxy war in Ukraine. That's roughly 1/8 of the entire US military budget for the year: by far the world's largest. Congrats to Raytheon, General Dynamics and CIA! https://t.co/gDnfyebElv — PolitiTweet.org

US funding for war in Ukraine in 9 months: Mar: $ 13.6 billion May: $ 40b Nov: $ 37.7b: Biden's new request That $ 91.3 billion is 33% more than Russia's *total military spending for the year* It's *double* the US's average annual expenditure for its own war in Afghanistan — PolitiTweet.org

The claims that you want to be true, that most comport with your pre-suppositions and best advance your agenda, are the ones that require the greatest skepticism. That's when one really needs to ensure that reliable evidence is presented before affirming and spreading the claim. — PolitiTweet.org

And this is the reason that large media corporations employ so many "journalists" to monitor ordinary citizens on FB and 4Chan, and why billionaires fund a scam "disinformation industry": to conceal that *they are the greatest purveyors of disinformation: https://t.co/U471R869LJ — PolitiTweet.org

It is true the US's closest allies -- Saudi Arabia and Egypt -- do often order and implement mass executions of dissidents. And nobody disputes that the Iranian regime commits brutal human rights abuses. But this recklessness is what erodes trust in news: https://t.co/LLprbJpbxx — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
This claim was mindlessly shared by more mainstream commentators, political leaders (including @JustinTrudeau and @tedlieu), "journalists" and activists than one could count. It went mega-viral. Just basic skepticism would've revealed it had no credible sourcing from the start: — PolitiTweet.org

A full week after "Election Day," there are still Congressional districts where barely 65% of the votes are counted. In one district, more than half remain uncounted. There is *no valid excuse* to justify this in the world's richest country. It's just unacceptable: a choice. https://t.co/SJHKHUUzkU — PolitiTweet.org

Meet George Santos, the first ever Brazilian-American (and first-ever openly gay Republican) elected to Congress in US history. The son of working-class immigrant parents who left Brazil for the US, Congressman-elect Santos was born and raised in Jackson Heights, Queens🇺🇸🇧🇷 #NY03 — PolitiTweet.org

Last July, I wrote about how - as usual - the only places where it was acceptable to question the FBI and its relationship to the groups behind 1/6 were right-wing media. In liberal circles, uncritical reverence for the US Security State is required: https://t.co/wuHhoj67I9 — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
These are the vital questions that authoritarian media liberals mocked and tried to prohibit from the start. *Of course* FBI deeply infiltrated the key groups involved in 1/6. Anyone reporting on War on Terror abuses know this is a key FBI tactic. https://t.co/OuLsMnypBo — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway - other than weeks/months after 9/11 - I have never see US society so submerged in group think, less tolerant of dissent as now. The propaganda system upheld by the union of US Security State, academics, and large media corporations is why. Watch that Chomsky lecture. — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
(I objected strongly to Chomsky's statement about the unvaccinated. But nobody can survive reducing people to what you see as their worst moment. And it's not that hard to empathize why a 93-year-old forced into 2 years of full isolation would be extra sensitive to COVID risks). — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
If you have an hour, please watch that. If you're not a leftist, you won't agree with every example. And I realize many are angry with Chomsky for his COVID views (more on that in the next tweet). But few if any have been as insightful in precisely describing propaganda systems. — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
For understanding how propaganda works in the US - the absolutely vital role played by US academics at elite schools and especially the largest media corporations - I can't recommend highly enough this 1989 Noam Chomsky lecture at the Univ. of Wisconsin: https://t.co/NAWJnbjGV2 — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
Within less than two decades, they got the US liberal-left to go from (accurately) viewing the US Security State as the primary source of disinformation and lies to viewing them as the supreme arbiters of truth and falsity, the ones who tell us Truth while we nod in agreement. — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
One reason (of many) that it's so sinister to hire huge numbers of former US Security State operatives as TV stars and "news analysts" -- as NBC and CNN compulsively do -- is it trains their liberal audience to see Security State operatives as trusted allies, not trained liars. — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
Liberals now have all sorts of memes and clichés they've been trained to recite that mock the notion of "just asking questions." That's what it means to build an authoritarian culture: FBI, DOJ and CIA leaders are to be honored and believed, not questioned or doubted. — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
These are absolutely reasonable question to ask the FBI Director -- not just reasonable but necessary. But within liberal political culture, any questioning of authorities is castigated as "deranged conspiracy theories." Only blind and uncritical acceptance is deemed honorable. — PolitiTweet.org

@vanessahauf @RottenInDenmark Mas para você concluir isso, deve ter lido os estudos ou pelo menos o artigo do NYT descrevendo os danos. E cita pais e filhos que dizem que se arrependem de ter feito isso, que não sabiam. E esse é o ponto: esses estudos devem ser divulgados para que as pessoas sejam informadas. https://t.co/LZjl0JIzNi — PolitiTweet.org
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald
@vanessahauf @RottenInDenmark Absolutamente inacreditável que você esteja me atacando por discutir um artigo do New York Times que você nem leu, sobre novos estudos médicos sobre os quais você não sabe nada. Como você pode fazer isso de boa fé? — PolitiTweet.org
