The Biden Administration is openly planning to pay homage to one its closest allies -- one of the most despotic and murderous tyrants on the planet, the Saudi Crown Prince -- at the same time it convinces Americans its motive for fighting wars is to defend freedom and democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Awkward. Maybe Congress should investigate @NomikiKonst to find out whether she has funding from the Kremlin or other US enemies given how blatantly she's dividing the left, trying to sabotage the DSA-backed daughter of an immigrant family, @Gonzalez4NY: https://t.co/G6JoTlX8Wl — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Who doesn't love a McCarthyite fascist who explicitly advocates having Congress investigate her political enemies because she's angry they criticized her online? Seems like a perfect fit for the Dem Party and @majorityfm! Good luck to @SamSeder and his sidekick @NomikiKonst: https://t.co/0U2XxtCJLP — PolitiTweet.org

Speaking of unalterable facts that will never go away, this is one of the NYT's clearest statements yet about what was, far and away, the media's biggest story of Trump era, a vast conspiracy theory that resulted in *no charges *on that core claim: https://t.co/DsCytoFQ9H https://t.co/HK4PuXDW6v — PolitiTweet.org

@htmlmencken @aaronjmate @mattduss @TheGrayzoneNews It's become so much clearer in retrospect how much of the liberal opposition to the Iraq War was due to its being led by the Bush and the GOP, given how many of those same people cheered every subsequent war policy by a Dem President based on the same rationale. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AdsMassey LOL. That's how the Vietnam War and the Iraq War were justified: 1964: We're just helping our South Vietnamese allies protect their democracy from aggressors. 2002: Leftists should show solidarity with oppressed Iraqis who want to be liberated from Saddam's tyranny. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Notice, too, GOP Senators who voted for Biden's $40b war package had to justify it. That's why Cruz, Romney, etc. posted videos: they know conservatives demand this. But other than Cori Bush, the Squad hasn't bothered to explain their YES vote: they know their followers submit. — PolitiTweet.org

@illinidiva12 @WilmerDAB2 I don't know if you're a pathological liar or just extremely ignorant, but Lula said from the start that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was a blatantly illegal act of aggression. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@aaronjmate @mattduss @TheGrayzoneNews It's so bizarre that The New Republic was the place of choice for decades for warmongering scumbags and neocons like Marty Peretz and Jon Chait to malign the left as anti-American traitors for dissenting on US war policy, and now that's where Bernie's key adviser chose to do it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In 2018 -- 2 years after FBI concluded Trump/Alfa-Bank was a hoax, and even pro-Dem outlets like Vox, Intercept and WPost essentially said so -- the DNC dead-enders like @NatashaBertrand, @FranklinFoer & @chrislhayes kept spreading it, and got rewarded: https://t.co/tgR7IHc6j2 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

No rantings by pro-DNC writers like Jon Chait and Charlie Savage can change the unalterable fact: the Trump/Alfa-Bank story was a fraud from the start. Even some liberal outlets said so and the FBI quickly concluded that, but the liberal journalists who kept spreading it thrived. — PolitiTweet.org

@janelasdedeus Yes, the entire world would be affected by the risk of a nuclear exchange between the countries with the two largest nuclear stockpiles, and is being affected by the prolonging of this war. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@alexgoldstein87 You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Both my husband and I have endured months of relentless and personal attacks from petistas because he left his party and isn't supporting Lula. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The foreign policy ideology of the American Bernie/AOC/DNC "left" is far closer to that of David Frum and Hillary than it is Chomsky or Lula, which is why Bernie's foreign policy advisor, @mattduss, is in The New Republic advocating the former while bashing the latter. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Meanwhile, the foreign policy adviser of Bernie Sanders -- who joined every Dem in voting for BIden's $40b war package - continues the tradition of Dems going to the TNR to scold the left (he singles out Lula and Chomsky) for being insufficiently pro-war: https://t.co/Dfnzjs9lit — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Leading the 2022 presidential polling, Brazil's Lula da Silva harshly criticizes Biden for fueling the war in Ukraine with $40b more, while Americans can't get baby's milk and ignores starving people -- a basic left-wing message, as the Squad unanimously and quietly votes YES. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Judges in high-profile trials often succumb to 1 of 2 failures: 1) intimidated by the scrutiny, they allow disorder to reign, or 2) craving attention, they perform for the cameras. The Heard/Depp judge did neither: she stayed in the background but always controlled the trial.👍 https://t.co/baXF1Bj57Y — PolitiTweet.org

I never had interest but watched the whole trial for 2 reasons (beyond my residual love of trials from lawyer days): 1) it says much about what does - and doesn't - make someone happy, and 2) you see the huge gap between media narratives and reality when you watch for yourself. — PolitiTweet.org
