If your gay best friend 🌈 needs visuals to help understand how the Supreme Court functions, you can show him this. If the Supreme Court had no power to go back and reverse "established law" this way, Lawrence and Obergefell would have been impossible: https://t.co/kSU7v3Uwlo https://t.co/ZU6pMGF2A9 — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations on having a gay man as your best friend: a mark of enlightenment!🌈 Explain to him that in 1986, Supreme Court in Bowers v. Hardwick upheld the right of states to criminalize same-sex sodomy: "established law." 18 years later, they went back and overruled that. — PolitiTweet.org

Just as media corporations re-branded their partisan pundits as "fact-checkers" - to masquerade their opinions as elevated, apolitical authoritative, decrees of expertise - the term "disinformation expert" is designed to disguise ideological views as Official Truth. It's a scam. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

What is a "disinformation expert"? Does it require a particular degree? Is there some licensing board or official certification issued? What credentials, scholarship or accomplishments are needed to justify someone being lavished with this pompous label? It's a bullshit fraud. https://t.co/VqdKTgJc9Z — PolitiTweet.org

To put it more precisely: they jettisoned every view they held for decades which conflicts with their new liberal fans who buy their books and donate to their groups. But mostly they assessed -- correctly -- that the Dem Party is a more hospitable home to their core ideology. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These so-called #NeverTrump GOP operatives and neocons started off pretending they were still the same conservatives as always, just horrified by Trump. But now they have jettisoned almost every view they held, with no explanation, and are full-fledged Dems and nothing more. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ianbremmer Yes, with some exceptions, but it's worth noting how the group with the "dissenting views" represents more than half of the world's population, beginning with China and India and going down the list. — PolitiTweet.org

@cloudy_yah @mattduss @LulaOficial @TIME Let's pretend that your premise about Ukrainian democracy is correct. What relevance does it have to Lula's assessment: Who was more to blame for the Iraq War: the democratically elected Bush or the authoritarian dictator-for-life of the invaded country? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Biden wants to spend another $33 billion on the war in Ukraine, with a huge chunk of that going to weapons manufacturers - Raytheon, General Dynamics, etc. - to fuel and prolong the proxy war, and it's amazing how little the US left has to say about it. Not one Dem vote against. https://t.co/M3OUKzsuaH — PolitiTweet.org

@CaioAlmendra @Alex__1789 Exatamente.

Julio spent months on the ground doing meticulous and sometimes dangerous reporting about the 2020 protests and riots. When most corporate outlets were petrified to do anything but propagandize on behalf of the protests, he was doing real reporting. Look forward to reading this: — PolitiTweet.org

@erosSCS I'm in favor of free speech, a free press, due process, reducing corporate control over our politics and lives, proposed laws to break up Big Tech monopolies, a reduction in military spending and militarism in general, reform of industrial agriculture: much more, no space left. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Not really a mystery why the GOP establishment, like the Democratic Party establishment, would hate someone advocating this message: https://t.co/5DAXdFVQ0t — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Good. "The GOP establishment" is repellent. If they hold someone in disgust, it's far more of a tribute to that person than a condemnation. Vance, like Trump, ran against the GOP establishment (regardless of how sincere: we'll only know if he wins). So of course they hate him. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@capitaotchaca There is no question that the US establishment strongly prefers dependable, mainstream left-liberal politicians to ones they perceive as far-right populists -- not just in the US (where they obviously backed Clinton and Biden over Trump) but everywhere. — PolitiTweet.org

@sluggahjells The Clintons, like Joe Biden, themselves have quite a long history of supporting criminal justice policies and making all sorts of statements that the liberal-left regards as racist. And not just on criminal justice but immigration as well. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

If Lula, Chomsky, and now the Pope are all saying more or less than same thing about Ukraine, it's a bit difficult for Western leftists to continue to insist that the Only Real Left Position™ is to march behind NATO and the US foreign policy community in fueling the war. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It's rather hilarious that not even the Pope is immune from being maligned by the Daily Beast tabloid as a "conspiracy theorist" for minimal dissent on Ukraine, simply pointing out what was long conventional wisdom in DC: NATO expansion is provocative. https://t.co/hvoxeNsa3n https://t.co/nvrKcZO85M — PolitiTweet.org

The Univ. of Virginia study which found "the raw number of such Obama-to-Trump voters range from about 6.7 million to 9.2 million" can be found here. They acknowledge it can't be determined with certainty, but "the answer is certainly in the millions." https://t.co/WQeO06ZfcC — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

And yes, it's true that the group of Americans who twice voted for Obama, then for Trump, is large. But they are typically ignored because elite liberal discourse - with its GOP v. Dem prism - has no means to explain this, and they make it hard to call all Trump voters racists. https://t.co/UCs7mRYoHK — PolitiTweet.org

@LizGodoi Concordo com Lula sobre a guerra. Sempre disse isso. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Another far larger group than Jill Stein voters are Americans who choose not to vote. Contrary to elite discourse, they are not "too privileged to care." They are disproportionately lower-income and people of color who believe US elections don't matter: https://t.co/TAgsLANSjD — PolitiTweet.org
