@edonomics Wrong about what? I know liberals are complete authoritarians but even authoritarians understand that a criminal charge does not equate to proof of guilt. That's what trials are for. The last sedition charge -- brought by the Obama DOJ -- was tossed out. https://t.co/7w0Q2Mwgd0 — PolitiTweet.org

"The U.S. government has successfully convicted fewer than 12 Americans for treason in the nation’s history." The last charge was 2010 -- against members of the Hutaree Militia. The judge dismissed the case, saying it was based on protected speech. https://t.co/PEnF7WlRkL — PolitiTweet.org

More than a year after 1/6 and with growing political pressure from Democrats, the Biden DOJ filed its first sedition charges -- against Oath Keeper Stewart Rhodes. Sedition charges are very rare and hard: will be interesting to see if they can convict. https://t.co/UxJbCh0hYa — PolitiTweet.org

His mom, the Queen, punished him at 61. British royalty is so preposterous. — PolitiTweet.org

@ChuckRossDC They agree with that framework and use it constantly. — PolitiTweet.org

The standing default premise of Democratic/liberal political discourse (including their journalists) is that disagreeing their their political orthodoxies and agenda means you're a white nationalist. Not sure why people think such a stale, overused manipulative tactic will work: — PolitiTweet.org

This is the sector of the corporate media that genuinely believes it's the truth-based squad devoted to combatting deranged conspiracy theories. The only explanation for how they get themselves to believe this given what they do is rooted in group psychology and in-group culture. https://t.co/abnbBiKKXP — PolitiTweet.org

The people who spent four years claiming the Kremlin had assumed nefarious control of the levers of US power through clandestine blackmail over the President of the United States still pose to this very day as opponents of unhinged conspiracy theories. https://t.co/CpTAVVFie2 — PolitiTweet.org

I'll be on @GetCallin today at 4:30 pm ET for my weekly podcast with @qaomene: the FBI's relationship to 1/6, growing debates about US conflict with Russia and China, and the resignation manifesto of CBC journalist @TaraRHenley. As always, with Q&A: https://t.co/UztHkPKJMo — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesSurowiecki @Britonomist @wesyang @ryangrim I'm not really sure how, as a non-scientist, you've decided you're able to declare people who have devoted their entire lives to the study of science to be such quacks and cranks that they should not even be allowed a platform, but the self-belief and hubris is impressive. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Ruling by "emergency decree" for years on end is what happened after 9/11 and is now happening with COVID, too. Few things are more difficult than prying "temporary" powers out of the hands of the authorities who were permitted to claim them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Britonomist @JamesSurowiecki @wesyang @ryangrim There is an infinite number of media outlets and billionaire-funded watchdog groups devoting endless time to attacking Rogan, Fox, etc. etc. I know many people wish I'd use my platform to copy and echo that but I've always preferred to focus on what gets insufficient attention. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@LangeTopher @chrislhayes I obviously mean his distance from the corporate news outlets and its culture that he's critiquing. He built his own audience on YouTube without having to work for the New York Times or NBC News or CNN and, even now on Spotify, answers to nobody. — PolitiTweet.org

@_colibrisas A verdade é encontrada no Google e CNN. Todos os bons progressistas brasileiros sabem disso. Continue ouvindo e obedecendo. — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesSurowiecki @wesyang @ryangrim I'm sorry you can't create a world where only the views you agree with receive an airing. I doubt you listen to Rogan very often -- my guess is you hear prepackaged clips designed to make you hate him -- but he has said over and over that the vaccine is vital for many people. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BFisolofico The vast, vast majority of my income comes from my readers. But I never claimed that billionaires only support one type of ideology: many are right-wing and many are left-liberals and every faction receives funding from oligarchs. Some admit it and some pretend they don't. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@_colibrisas Você não sabe nada sobre política ou cultura americana. Todas as suas opiniões vêm de um pequeno punhado de "jornalistas" da Globo, CNN e NYT, e você acha que sabe tudo com tanta arrogância por causa disso. Eu não tento silenciar ninguém: você tenta. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

A tidal wave of billionaire cash keeps pouring into left-liberal organizations, NGOs, media outlets and activist groups, yet they never stop claiming that only the right receives oligarchical funding. Every faction needs a persecution narrative: can never admit they're winning. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@_colibrisas Eu desprezo autoritários como você que pensam que sua verdade é tão absoluta que todos com uma visão diferente devem ser silenciados. Vá assistir Jornal Nacional e Globo News e acredite que sabe a verdade. — PolitiTweet.org

@wesyang @ryangrim That's why the censorship efforts always intensify. It's out of desperation. At this point, the more they do it, the more they strengthen the venues of dissent. But they don't know what else to do as the power they once held slips through their fingers like sand. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@JamesSurowiecki @wesyang @ryangrim Rogan says explicitly that the vaccines is vital for many people, that it's established fact that many if not most people are well-advised to take the COVID vaccine given their health and other circumstances, and that most people have not suffered adverse effects. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Often, the best way to grasp the dynamic of elite culture is not to immerse yourself in it. That produces what @chrislhayes, before he became an MSNBC star, called "cognitive capture": you drown in and adopt its pieties. Rogan understands media because of his distance from it:👇 https://t.co/RbSz8aPpF0 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The day after Twitter permanently banned Dr. Robert Malone for the crime of COVID heresy, he went on Rogan's show, and it became one of the most-heard podcast episodes in history. Rogan is a growing threat, so the censorship efforts will have to grow: https://t.co/pycN8BH6lG — PolitiTweet.org
