Below is the 2nd article from the NYT on the dangers of this judge's censorship powers, from Oct. I've never seen a judge in any democracy with this level of power. He's become a venerated hero of the Brazilian left, feared and off-limits from criticism https://t.co/4JGqeowBO4 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

But the only reason to become a journalist is to do your job no matter the threats and risks. We'll be on live on Rumble with our @SystemUpdate_ program at its regular time - 7pm ET - to report this and explain the immense dangers of it. It's stunning. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

A sign of how repressive the situation in Brazil is: I've had to spent hours with lawyers even figuring out if I can report this. I've confronted governments around the world and this is the only time I've ever asked: "Should I report on this? Can I safely criticize this judge?" — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I can't overstate how shocking and dangerous this new censorship order is. It's from the same judge that even the NYT has been warning about as authoritarian: Alexandre de Moraes. Read this NYT article. It was from September. It's now severely escalating: https://t.co/UpbsF2pJUm — PolitiTweet.org

BREAKING: The censorship regime in Brazil is growing rapidly, virtually daily now. We just obtained a censorship order that is genuinely shocking, directing multiple social media platforms to *immediately* remove numerous prominent politicians and commentators. — PolitiTweet.org

Uma das coisas que vcs nunca vão me ver dizendo é “direitos humanos para humanos direitos”. Defendo o direito de todos: dos Trumpistas, petistas, dos “terroristas" em Guantanamo, dos Bolsonaristas, todos. São nesses princípios que eu acredito. É isso que eu vou defender sempre. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Mas o próprio princípio – o direito a um julgamento justo, liberdade de expressão, limites ao poder judicial – serve e protege a sociedade inteira. Isso é o que diferencia os princípios do poder corrupto. O fascismo e o autoritarismo só são possíveis na ausência de princípios. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Os princípios - como os direitos - não têm partido. Podem ajudar a esquerda um dia, a direita no dia seguinte. Por exemplo, o princípio de que o Estado não pode punir um cidadão sem julgamento justo um dia pode libertar o Lula. No dia seguinte, proteger um bolsonarista. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Quem defende um princípio não está do lado de nenhuma facção política. Um princípio não serve à esquerda ou à direita. Um princípio, por definição, tem aplicação universal. Aqueles que não conseguem raciocinar com princípios sempre assumem que todos sofrem da mesma incapacidade — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The Democrats and their media allies spent 5 full years drowning US politics in a deranged conspiracy theory from the bowels of the CIA -- that Russia had seized control of the levers of power in America -- and when you watch them do it, one feels a mix of contempt and pity:👇 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@MaasNeotekProto You're a Democrat. I know you're still clinging with all your might and force to trying to believe you're a left-wing radical - super scary, edgy and threatening - but you're a harmless Dem loyalist who eats your beans when Uncle Chuck and Aunt Nancy tell you to.✊ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

US President Joe Biden is under investigation by his own Justice Department to determine whether his serial mishandling of classified information -- including Top Secret documents about Iran and Ukraine -- violated multiple federal criminal laws and should be prosecuted. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Cernovich This has been their scam for years. Whatever major Russiagate planks get debunked, they immediately start rewriting history to say it was never an important part, even though they obsessed on it. The ultimate example, of course, is the Steele Dossier that kicked it all off. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Chris Hayes, during the Trump era, invented a new standard for "journalism," one that was the exact opposite of what journalists do: "Unlikely but possible." And with @jonathanchait, he aired a conspiracy theory as deranged as anything one finds on QAnon or 4Chan or whatever: https://t.co/NGXqV3Ew7t — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The most maddening aspect of conspiracy theorists like Chris Hayes and the whole NBC/CNN crowd is they're immune to contradictory facts. Trump "the Kremlin asset" did the 2 worst things possible to Russian interests: 1) Armed Ukraine. 2) Tried to sabotage Nord Stream 2.👇👇 https://t.co/5UAW8GroHE — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Who was president when Russia annexed Crimea with little US reaction? Who was president when Russian troops entered Ukraine with the explicit goal to "liberate" the Donbas with Kosovo-style independence? Trump spent years arming Ukraine with lethal weapons after Obama refused. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@realD0naldIrump Joe Biden is officially under investigation by his own Justice Department to determine whether he committed federal crimes in what is indisputably his improper mishandling of some of the nation's most sensitive secrets. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@STabcdef Every side in war uses propaganda. And all major governments use propaganda as well. And that obviously includes Russia and RT. Like Western propaganda outlets, it often contains factual information and the views of the government, and there's value in hearing that. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

How can French people tolerate this? If you only want to hear NATO propaganda, fine: don't watch RT. But why would you want your government ordering foreign sites to censor - preventing adults who want to watch RT from doing do - and then banning these sites from the country? https://t.co/DGNgpVF6Uk — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I continue to receive emails like this from French citizens wishing to watch @SystemUpdate_ or other Rumble shows but can't -- because France demanded that Rumble remove RT and other Russian media or else be banned from the country. Rumble, to its great credit, refused. https://t.co/YrxEZr7dpl — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

To illustrate how craven Dem politicians and liberal journalists are, you couldn't write a better script. And while we enjoyed reveling in that, we mostly devoted our show to what this shows about DC's serial and dangerous abuse of secrecy powers: https://t.co/SSCrF5kGUR — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

One almost feels sorry for Democrats and their media spokespeople at CNN and MSNBC because there's just no way out. For instance, they'd have an argument if the docs Biden tossed around weren't Top Secret. But as even CNN admits, they were Top Secret - about Iran and Ukraine. https://t.co/Xl2aIqvyAc — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It's really worth watching what almost every leading Democrat said -- including Adam Schiff and Joe Biden himself -- during the Mar-a-Logo episode. They kept saying how there are few things more dangerous or intolerable than leaving classified docs in unsecured places. Watch:😂 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

RT @BenBurgis: I hosted a debate between @ggreenwald and @BMarchetich on "the Bernie/AOC Left," it's attitude to war, peace, and the nation… — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Polls now showing increasing opposition among Republicans to endless funding of the US proxy war in Ukraine, as Dem support stays strong. So, far more Dem support than GOP for: * State and corporate censorship online * CIA, FBI and DHS * Endless funding of war in Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Kevin McCarthy got to the part of his Press Conference where he was explaining the very substantive reasons for removing @RepSwalwell and @RepAdamSchiff from the House Intel Committees but CNN, sadly, had no time to hear it, especially about Schiff, their #1 source for leaks: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Starting LIVE in 3 minutes: We'll examine the multiple hilarious aspects that Biden is now under investigation for mishandling classified docs, but there are vital lessons here on how DC abuses secrecy powers. Plus: @aaronjmate on Dems' shielding of CIA: https://t.co/SSCrF5leKp — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also, the "I-keep-my-Corvette-in-that-garage-so-you-know-it's-secure-for-Top-Secret-documents!" is one of the all-time most hilarious things a US President has said - up there with Trump's reaction to learning RBG had passed away - and I can't stop watching it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@my_friggin_gosh @RepAdamSchiff @RepSwalwell @mkraju Yes, I remember that time he broke the news of how Donald Trump Jr. had advanced access to the WikiLeaks archive, a huge smoking gun! Unfortunately, the story was a total fraud because Manu and his sources mis-read the date on an email. Meanwhile: https://t.co/e2xMoG4qEK — PolitiTweet.org
