At the time CIA got huge numbers of corporate outlets to spread its lie that the Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation," actual reporters at the WPost warned Biden constantly maligns incriminating reports as "Russian disinformation" with no evidence: https://t.co/f6ocI5Hhgz — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Outside of CNN and MSNBC, @PBump is arguably the single most partisan DNC hack in all corporate media. He defends CIA's lie that the Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation" without explicitly noting that the NYT authenticated it (just threw in a link). https://t.co/G6WU5Au89V — PolitiTweet.org

@Chriss_m All humans have biases. It's good you seek out reporting and analysis that undercuts your views. That's commendable: more people should do that. But this is a criticism of Big Tech: they should be consistent in who they brand state-associated and it obviously includes this group. — PolitiTweet.org

@ichbinilya @OCCRP @StateDept Google puts this note on the BBC, despite the fact that it occasionally broadcasts or publish stories in tension with British foreign policy. https://t.co/MOW8WfibFF — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ichbinilya @OCCRP @StateDept All state-associated outlets throw in some reporting that looks independent. Even RT has the occasional criticisms of Russian allies. The vast majority of your output is in line with US foreign policy, which is why they fund you. Either way, the notation is about funding. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AubreyBelford @ichbinilya @OCCRP @StateDept If I tried to call myself a "journalist" while getting most of my funding from the US State Department, I'd be ashamed to show my face in public. Fortunately for the US security state, there are people who have no shame. — PolitiTweet.org

@Chriss_m You're one of those people who believes the US Government funds so-called "news" outlets not because they know the outlets serve the interest of the USG, but because they have a benevolent interest in supporting independent journalism wherever it might lead? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@QoqoBulos LOL - totally. You're just a guy trying to helpfully guide me on what I should talk about, not someone grateful that the CIA, corporate media and Big Tech united to push a lie on the public with the goal of defeating Trump. https://t.co/6UC2zeDBKC — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@QoqoBulos You don't care that the CIA, the corporate media and Big Tech united to censor and lie about pre-election reporting -- by claiming it was "Russian disinformation" rather than what it was: real -- because you're a Democrat and thus grateful they lied to help defeat Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Things like this make a mockery out of Twitter's claim it notify users of state-associated media. The fraudulent entity that claims to be "independent," @OCCRP, receives the vast majority of its funding from US @StateDept, yet it and "reporters" like @ichbinilya have no notation. — PolitiTweet.org

And, just by the way, it's been 48 hours since the outlet they regard as "The Paper of Record" stated they authenticated the emails in the Hunter Biden archive about Joe's activities. Not a single media outlet that spread the CIA lie has acknowledged it or retracted their lies. https://t.co/7kGgNYvn91 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Here's a great breakdown from @vanguard_pod -- one of the best and most honest left-wing shows on the internet -- about the role played by @theintercept's editors in spreading the CIA's "Russian disinformation" line, and how @TheYoungTurks supported them: https://t.co/TzsEZQ6qtn — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These "former intelligence officials" - trained career disinformation agents, who were supposed to manipulate other countries' politics, not the US's - have the same contempt for the public as the media outlets they command: refuse to admit their lies: https://t.co/7wWnfTNuGj — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It's unfortunate that the @NYPost is one of the few large US outlets willing to hold accountable the cretins in the US security state for the lies they told about the Biden emails being "Russian disinformation" - designed to manipulate the 2020 election - but that's our reality: — PolitiTweet.org

@andao Where the countries refusing to join the condemnation of Russia include the planet's 1st most-populous country, the 2nd, 5th, 8th, 9th, 15th, 16th, and 18th? No, I didn't miss that. It's what I'm talking about. Don't worry: it's only 3.6 billion people. No big deal. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I'll be on Fox News in the 8 pm hour to discuss why the corporate media outlets that spread the CIA's pre-election lie that the Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation" won't retract that lie, or even acknowledge the NYT's announcement that it authenticated the documents. https://t.co/jrhZjmXCjK — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ptrbrsn @AOC The 1/6 Capitol riot, which didn't suspend the Constitution or justify censorship. Liberals have countless episodes they believe justifies censorship -- Russiagate, 1/6, COVID, war in Ukraine, etc. What drove Parler's popularity was Twitter's suspension of Trump. This is Dems: https://t.co/MIzt0kon3d — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RandomBear87 @AOC Yes, the banning of Trump from Twitter is what drove huge numbers of people to no longer trust it and want to use a free speech platform instead. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@deaner__ @AOC Yes, Democrats, who control the Govt, have repeatedly threatened Silicon Valley monopolies with regulatory and legal reprisals if they don't censor on command, so when one of the most famous Dem celebrities in Congress demands censorship, they listen. https://t.co/aPJwt8a5Ff — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

For those invoking 1/6 to justify this state censorship, 2 points: 1) Note how many episodes now justify censorship (Russiagate, 1/6, COVID, war in Ukraine, etc). 2) Far more 1/6 planning was done on YouTube, yet no Dems wanted to destroy it: they used Google to destroy Parler. https://t.co/UZOWQTIqkc — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In 4 tweets, the story of how @AOC and a few of her Dem colleagues abused their majoritarian power in DC to coerce Silicon Valley monopolies to destroy a highly popular app they disliked. Censorship concerns are about more than "hurt feelings" and mean tweets from random users. https://t.co/9t4lDjgExb — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

January 7, 2021: Parler became the US's most-downloaded app. January 8: @AOC demanded Apple & Google use their monopolistic power to remove Parler from its store. January 9: Google and Apple obeyed. Parler was destroyed. It's about a little more than "feeling embarrassed." — PolitiTweet.org

I can't imagine why even Rachel Maddow -- who came to tears on air as she believed Russia was going to cut off the heat for people in North Dakota during winter -- would think @KeithOlbermann was too unhinged to take over her show: https://t.co/lpYnaExuGi — PolitiTweet.org

The moral narrative and moral dimensions of this war continue to obscure the extremely serious consequences of US policy. More and more US involvement - even short of a no-fly-zone - risk escalation. But any warnings about it are deemed "Russian propaganda." So it just escalates. — PolitiTweet.org
