@brockm Why is Cuba of vital interest to the US but Ukraine isn't of vital interest to Russia? Is Ukraine of vital interest to the US? Seems that way, given how much work the US does inside Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@brockm If Russia or China stationed troops in Cuba or flooded it with lethal arms to fight the US while including it in a military alliance they led, would that be of vital interest to the US? Washington would insist it was. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to those pointing out that Romney's exact quote was that Russia is the "number one geopolitical foe" of the US: a claim I disagreed with then and disagree with now. Here's what Democrats did to mock him for it: https://t.co/EKLHcQ6zTL — PolitiTweet.org

Obama - not in 2009 but in 2016: the last year of his presidency, two years after the annexation of Crimea - emphatically argued what, today, is prohibited, what will get you smeared as a Kremlin asset: Ukraine is of vital interest to Russia, not the US: https://t.co/gnx24QCDCb — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There's no way to overstate the utter insanity of the US media and the Democratic Party spending 5 years affirming a completely deranged conspiracy theory -- that Trump was controlled by and captive to the Kremlin through blackmail -- when everything negated that demented tale. https://t.co/eX918lbVa2 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There's a major irony when it comes to partisan politics and Russia: Obama was everything Trump was accused of being. Obama was eager to avoid confrontation with Putin. He resisted sending lethal arms to Ukraine (Trump did) and denied they were a grave threat (even after Crimea). https://t.co/lWGJp1Px36 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I thought in 2012 that Obama was right about Russia and Romney was wrong, and I still think so: the idea that Russia is the greatest threat to the US is absurd. But everything about Dem politics and rhetoric requires Dems to do what @PaulBegala did: https://t.co/2iNPhTFiq7 — PolitiTweet.org

Imagine reading the limitlessly authoritarian statement issued by the Canadian government about their freezing of bank accounts and believing it's exculpatory. — PolitiTweet.org

@tweetyes31 @nocautefm @UOL @KennedyAlencar @blogdosakamoto @diegosarza Somos jornalistas. Não temos o poder de reverter quaisquer julgamentos. Só os tribunais o fazem. E os tribunais que durante anos ficaram do lado de Moro em tudo o que ele fez analisaram as evidências de seu delito e julgaram que ele era corrupto. Sua raiva pertence a ele. — PolitiTweet.org

@tweetyes31 @nocautefm @UOL @KennedyAlencar @blogdosakamoto @diegosarza Foram Sergio Moro e Deltan que fizeram isso. Nos só revelamos a corrupção deles. Mas foram eles que decidiram usar métodos corruptos. — PolitiTweet.org

@giveaprogabone @wischj There's also that stuff about a shelter for homeless people and abandoned animals, our family we've created, and the work I've done, but again, I know it can't compare to what you've done for others, even though you're too humble to say what it is. https://t.co/EYqIe8LqNP — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@wischj @giveaprogabone Yes, I believe there is a large pile of things I can point to as doing something quite productive with my life, but I think his point is that they pale in comparison to what "Trev" has done and is doing. — PolitiTweet.org

@giveaprogabone Lead by example. Show me all the great things you're doing with yours so that I can see how it should work. — PolitiTweet.org

@Gaellprado @nocautefm @UOL @KennedyAlencar @blogdosakamoto @diegosarza Acho genuinamente engraçado quando as pessoas que têm #LULA2022 em toda a sua bio me dizem que sou o inimigo do Brasil, um traidor, um imperialista gringo, e que deveria ser deportado ou deixar o país. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This MSNBC segment bitterly complains that Tucker Carlson is making it more difficult for GOP lawmakers and candidates to support US military intervention in Ukraine, and not only considers that a bad thing but is suggestive of his disloyalty to the US: https://t.co/2hqdhQy7BY — PolitiTweet.org

@MeCampbell30 @getcallin We'll do our best to cope with the devastating loss from your absence. Thank you for announcing it in advance so that people have time to prepare for the trauma. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Dan83795675 @getcallin I think it's a very legitimate argument. People like you who want to feel tough by sending others to war -- but never fight yourself -- are the worst plague on earth. Adam Smith described and warned of your sickness in 1776: https://t.co/F9EAymLPaz — PolitiTweet.org
