@benyt I'm so pissed I wasn't able to break this story before you were ready to announce it, like you did about my leaving the Guardian using the same language. One day, vengeance will be mine. For now: congrats! — PolitiTweet.org

@SamuelRGalloway "Shilling for a fascist pundit" like this, you mean? I realize this work isn't nearly as impactful or brave as Samuel R. Galloway's teaching of courses at SUNY -- what is? -- but it does seem nonetheless to contradict your characterization of my work. https://t.co/EAMXyVyXEd — PolitiTweet.org

@27khv @Snowden Yep - the last time I was in Moscow, every person mocked the idea as "un-Russian," emphasizing that Putin would never and could never have given Snowden over to the US and never considered it. They just make shit up if the CIA tells them to - especially NBC News. — PolitiTweet.org

Compare this NBC video to what I explained yesterday is meant by the term "Real Reporting" when used by corporate journalists: to claim only they do it, not anyone independent. This is what NBC does as its function; it's why they have @KenDilanianNBC. https://t.co/B1rXzPbaKo — PolitiTweet.org

@Kittfornow It's the same thing Ecuador tried to say: that we're giving him protection but only on the condition that he is barred from "interfering" in the affairs of other countries. That's how the pathetic Lenin Moreno justified cutting of his internet, then expelling him. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

NBC News disseminates so much radical disinformation - which they blindly ingest and then spread from the US security state - that even for someone like me who works to keep track of it, it's so easy to forget some of their worst transgression. Look at this trash from early 2017: https://t.co/M7y6Hw0inX — PolitiTweet.org

@TennysSandgren Nothing makes a person realize just how deceitful and reckless the media is more than being at the center of their lies. It's one thing to know it in the abstract, as most people do. But when you see it up-close and first-hand, it's really stunning. — PolitiTweet.org

The President of Mexico cares more about press freedom in the US and UK than most corporate journalists in those two countries do. That's why he is working to secure a pardon for Assange while many US/UK journalists - due to bitter jealousy - are happy to see him rot in prison. — PolitiTweet.org

"Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said he had sought a pardon for Julian Assange from former U.S. President Donald Trump before he left office last year and repeated his offer of asylum for the Wikileaks founder on Monday." https://t.co/5KndX76jSN — PolitiTweet.org

@adamjohnsonNYC One last time: -- Vaccine mandates. -- Vaccine passports. -- Cloth mask mandates. -- School closure/remote learning. You're with Biden and Harris on all of those, as usual. — PolitiTweet.org

@adamjohnsonNYC This is from today. https://t.co/K7bVVgRqHN — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@adamjohnsonNYC You only expose yourself to a tiny and irrelevant fringe of voices which is why you have no idea what is being discussed and what is happening. Vaccine mandates are a major policy. So are vaccine passports. So are school closings. So are mask mandates. You're with Biden on all.🌊 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@adamjohnsonNYC Here's an article today from this obscure journal called The New York Times on how 450,000 more kids just had their schools closed again. Maybe if you're childless this doesn't matter, but it's still happening: https://t.co/PwmNIPpjWG Many people fired as well. They matter, too — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@adamjohnsonNYC The person whose views I actually share on the pandemic is named Jeremy Corbyn. I know people like you want to pretend this never happened but you'll have to swallow reality. This is the opposite of Biden's view: https://t.co/wQX3PlNLhi — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@adamjohnsonNYC Biden supports vaccine mandates, firing people if they don't obey. I think vaccine mandates are pointless, irrational and coercive. Same with passports. Biden supports cloth mask mandates. I think they are pointless, irrational and coercive. Otherwise, great points. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

If there's a more dreary or worthless existence or way to earn a living than sitting on your couch taking pictures of the TV -- then posting those context-free pics from the TV as political commentary -- I honestly don't know what it would be. That's life as the Vox Video Dunce: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Put another way: if what you want to write or "report" flatters and validates the core beliefs of Western liberals, there is *no editorial scrutiny" at all. Anything goes. That's why prestige outlets constantly spread disinformation. The "editing process" is only for heretics. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

When corporate outlets tout the rigors of their "editorial process," all they mean is they scrub articles for anything that contravene establishment liberalism. Some manage to do good reporting there, but most outlets are just activist machines for Western left-liberal ideology. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This isn't some right-wing journalist. She was long among the most left-wing. But the climate changed overnight. This happened in newsrooms across the West. It's easy to dismiss and mock it if your ideology (liberalism) is the dominant one, but it's a major threat to journalism. https://t.co/UkFgcYbaaj — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

A journalist who worked at @CBC quits after 8 years, citing the repressive environment where liberal-left ideology and woke pieties dictate "reporting"and bar all dissent. She's going to Substack to do journalism without those constraints. When will people realize the crisis? — PolitiTweet.org

@bsainth @PintsForThePoor Testing is rational, but that's not what is being done. Vaccine mandates and vaccine passports, along with cloth mask requirements, are, and they're not rational. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Jamie_Maz Cloth masks don't work for any period of indoor time. Even the scientific establishment is now finally admitting that. I'm not opposed to testing regimes. I think they're way more rational than vaccine passports. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@PintsForThePoor Yes, I believe the vaccine works, as I've repeatedly said publicly. That's why I'm opposed to greater repression. Unfortunately, many liberals don't really believe the vaccine works and therefore want things locked down and controlled indefinitely. https://t.co/BT2CsGdt1z — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The number of powerful people and corporate entities in the private and public sector with a clear vested interest -- economic and political -- in making the pandemic permanent, along with all of its restrictions, is very high. But for some reason this is all deemed irrelevant. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Boris Johnson supports vaccine mandates and vaccine passports -- the conservative Prime Minster wants all NHS workers fired in the middle of a pandemic if they don't take the vaccine -- while Jeremy Corbyn and leading British unions oppose these mandates. https://t.co/gtyTDBsUvM — PolitiTweet.org
