Remember that the very first time the issue of the US creating a no-fly zone in Ukraine was raised -- before @AdamKinzinger stood up to explicitly call for one -- was when a Pentagon reporter demanded of @PentagonPresSec a reason why the US wasn't doing it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Watch here to see for yourself. The WH press corps always demands the US do more militarily to involve itself in the Russia/Ukraine war (under the guise of asking questions), and that's why @RyanGrim's question about US diplomacy was so conspicuous: https://t.co/O2MpktA5aA — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This always happens. US corporate media claims to be "neutral," apolitical, etc. But every time there's a war or possible war, they push only in one direction: why aren't you getting more militarily involved?!?! That's why Psaki was shocked when @ryangrim asked about diplomacy. — PolitiTweet.org

@arquiteta9 @mbalan28 @zfurnas @juliaioffe I've criticized Russia many times, but it's not the country I live in, of which I'm a citizen, to which I pay taxes, whose language I speak, or where I have a large platform, so of course I focus on my own government(s) more. Why don't you criticize those countries I listed?? — PolitiTweet.org

@JoniHolinger @MittRomney @HillaryClinton @TulsiGabbard Thank you for your service in bravely putting that flag in your Twitter name. It's hard to find sacrifice and commitment this deep these days. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@davidpumpkins1 @MittRomney @HillaryClinton @TulsiGabbard It's completely related to Tulsi, who was one of the people I interviewed, even as she's being widely vilified by the scumbags who compose the DC elite political and media class as a traitor and Russian agent. — PolitiTweet.org

@philoshua I understand the ambivalence and doubt, but i can assure you it really worked. Even my husband gave fashion praise, which almost never happens. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@JeremyBeckham @TulsiGabbard @luisamell It was a really great event and good idea: tons of artists, actors, young online influencers -- mostly not vegan -- who came out of interest and wanted to learn more and think and talk about how they could use their platforms to raise awareness about the urgency. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@arquiteta9 @mbalan28 @zfurnas @juliaioffe I like reading your opinions (not really, but just let's pretend for the sake of the argument) yet you don't ever seem to criticize the repression in Colombia, Indonesia, the UAE or Egypt. Maybe I've missed it, but it seems quite suspicious..... https://t.co/4GdPInrRfV — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I'm still not over how repugnant it is that politicians like @MittRomney & @HillaryClinton devote their lives to demanding wars that other families go fight and die in, then turn around and smear those who risk their lives for their wars -- like @TulsiGabbard -- as *traitors.* https://t.co/HumSAWylf7 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@PabloLeno4 @TulsiGabbard @luisamell She volunteered and risked her life to fight in a war her country's leaders ordered. Meanwhile, you posture as a tough guy on Twitter while refusing to heed the call of Ukrainians for brave strong people like yourself to go and help them fight the Russian Army. Clear contrast. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The indisputable reality is the world's oceans and its marine life are dying. How the planet feeds itself is warped: 35% of fish are killed to feed chickens and other animals in factory farms: unsustainable. I was particularly glad to be with Tulsi given her courage and integrity https://t.co/09hP5ig1jd — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Last night in São Paulo, I had the privilege of interviewing the brave Capt. Paul Watson, founder of the direct action group "Sea Shepard," and @TulsiGabbard, about the rapid destruction of marine life by industrial fishing: organized by the animal activist/actress @LuisaMell. https://t.co/Rw0xGQJS7G — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@mbalan28 @zfurnas @juliaioffe That's what academia is. They all talk to and for each other with completely homogenized views. Anything that deviates is considered a hate crime or some speech code violation. So when they get outside of that realm, and they can't control who says what, this is how they behave. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@zfurnas @juliaioffe I've been documenting Ioffe's utterly deranged comments for months. Your Twitter reply is the complete equivalent of a 5-year-old on a playground saying: I'm rubber, you're glue." It's totally bereft of substance, examples, evidence or anything worthwhile. Zander. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

If it's true, as the increasingly unhinged @JuliaIoffe claims, that a country can't possibly be considered a "superpower" if it starts a war and fails to achieve its aims, what does this say about the status of the US after Iraq and especially the 20-year-war in Afghanistan? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@brunoyesiam @SF_Moro I didn't say Lula's conviction was nullified on that ground that he was innocent. Courts don't determine innocence, only whether the state, after a fair process, proved guilt. The STF ruling was that Lula never got a fair process because of Moro's misconduct as a judge. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@kimsterdam @BrettSaundry @IAPonomarenko Yes, I was also opposed to them, and would have been pretty appalled had someone proposed sending deadly weapons that would fall into their hands or turning them into major media stars with enduring social media celebrity. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BrettSaundry @IAPonomarenko Maybe try to not send incredibly sophisticated and deadly weapons that end up in the hands of neo-Nazi militias, and avoid adoring and turning into major stars people who have pledged their loyalty to neo-Nazi militias? Doesn't really seem like an unreasonable ask, given Nazism. — PolitiTweet.org

@AdsMassey @McFaul You're here to say that Ukrainian neo-Nazis are the lesser of two evils? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

That @IAPonomarenko has become the most celebrated Ukrainian star -- second only to Zelensky -- is just stunning. He not only explicitly professed his devotion to the Azov Battalion - his "brothers-in-arms" - but he knows he doesn't have to delete it because the West doesn't care https://t.co/mTTSsYOZ4t — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The one thing that surprised me about this war is how explicit and clear many in the West are about dismissing - even denying - the evils of this neo-Nazi militia. Some like @McFaul have said Hitler wasn't as bad as Putin, but in general that's the ethos https://t.co/zYbWyRfKuj — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is full-scale Nazi apologia from the Ukrainian Ambassador to Germany: "Ukrainian ambassador to Germany: stop demonizing the Azov battalion, as they are courageous fighters protecting their homeland, and this is playing into Russian propaganda" -- @Emilydische. https://t.co/GE4Oo4HV7L — PolitiTweet.org
