@BlueBoxDave I trust you're extremely busy writing for all the important outlets. But that's the point: I wouldn't analyze let alone criticize one of your columns without first reading it. If I were too busy to read it, I'd just refrain from comment. Also: https://t.co/nFnT5sn9GS — PolitiTweet.org

@CreakyNCrabby Do you know who Joseph McCarthy and J. Edgar Hoover are? Do you know that you sound exactly like their love child? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also, using the brand new precedent Nancy Pelosi created when rejecting the GOP Caucus' choices to sit on the 1/6 Committee -- That. Was. Not. Normal. -- the GOP Caucus should reject any Dems for the new Church Committee who support CIA/FBI/DHS's interference and censorship. https://t.co/wbjAs1ZDq2 — PolitiTweet.org

@SF202017 @googoo4gaga6 @rumblevideo People who are professional journalists have to be paid for their work like any other type of worker. So no, I couldn't produce a nightly live one-hour show without compensation. It's also very expensive to do it right: with a new, full studio and a large competent team. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Ryan_TreeFiddy It's right in the next tweet. Part of the GOP holdouts for McCarthy's Speakership are demanding greater budgets and powers for the new Church Committee to investigate FBI, CIA, DHS, etc. This person thought "Church Committee" means Congress would empower and create churches. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Whatever one thinks of all the maneuvers around the Kevin McCarthy debacle, it appears a fait accompli that there will be a new and serious Church Committee to investigate the abuses of CIA, FBI and DHS into our domestic politics. That is something to celebrate no matter what. https://t.co/9SVTHOHGC3 — PolitiTweet.org

😳 So many Dems and liberals have no idea of history before Trump. Below is a particularly hilarious example, but it's the reason why so many love Bill Kristol, David Frum, the Cheneys, Joe Scarborough, Nicolle Wallace, CIA's Kremlin-agent scripts. They know nothing about them. https://t.co/FjkJDkUXt1 — PolitiTweet.org

@googoo4gaga6 @rumblevideo I'm a huge supporter of Substack. I think their platform is vital and I support them fully. But when agreeing to produce a nightly live show with Rumble - a free speech platform I also strongly support - part of the deal was putting our after-show and writing on Locals. — PolitiTweet.org

@jspanglerw @BMarchetich @BenBurgis @getcallin Marco Rubio, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, John Cornyn, Ted Cruz and Mitch McConnell all voted for Biden's war policies in Ukraine, as did AOC, Bernie and every member of the Squad. With John Bolton and Bill Kristol, they're all vehement supporters of endless US support for Ukraine — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@PfeilerCristina I don't consider it an insult but praise that she's building coalitions with other parties over common views. That's what good politicians do. And I've been following this for a long time, not just from the Guardian. Here are socialists complaining of it: https://t.co/l9qBP2trzi — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, @BMarchetich and I had an exchange about (what I see as the) subservience of the Dem/Bernie-AOC "left" toward the National Security State and neoliberal/neocon foreign policy. Hosted by @BenBurgis, we'll discuss it today on @getcallin, noon ET. https://t.co/45KZCZLOuB — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

On last night's @SystemUpdate_, we examined the revolt by multiple GOP members to Kevin McCarthy's Speakership bid and the multiple other intra-right debates (Ukraine, foreign policy, etc.) to contrast it with the subservient unity of the Dem left: https://t.co/tw2sv2lo66 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Throughout the West - with the exception of the US, where the left-wing of the Dem Party is completely tamed and subservient to the neoliberal order - the actual left is opposing neoliberal policies: Ukraine/NATO, COVID mandates, Assange's imprisonment, elite cultural bickering. https://t.co/n0i0FBVsnZ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Germany's most popular leftist, former Communist Sahra Wagenknecht, is working with the right-wing populist party over shared policy beliefs: opposition to German support for Ukraine and NATO, COVID mandates, culture war fixations at the expense of class: https://t.co/YDaeHtg3c5 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave That's fine. But the reason we bother to produce one-hour live programs every night filled with evidence and documentation and lines of reasoning is because not everything is conducive to resolution through tweets. We addressed those claims on the show. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BlueBoxDave Probably a good idea to watch shows before critiquing them, but WSJ said this this morning: "About two dozen Republican members haven’t said how they would vote, and five are firmly against Mr. McCarthy..." And the point is even YES votes got there by extracting concessions. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Starting LIVE, in 3 minutes... Kevin McCarthy faces serious difficulty in getting the votes he needs for Speaker, because - unlike in the Dem caucus - the GOP defies leaders and refuse to do what they're told. Plus, a new glaring example of media lying: https://t.co/tw2sv2lVVE — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Much of the US corporate media despises @Snowden even though he's one of this generation's greatest sources, enabling reporting that won Pulitzers for Public Service (the WashPost, after eagerly using him, urged his imprisonment). Then again, they also want Assange in a dungeon. https://t.co/hQ2oslUpLp — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Compare the deranged, hateful and bigoted 2013 prediction of the always-wrong @JuliaIoffe of what Snowden's life would entail after the US trapped him in Russia, with (below) the actual reality: Snowden, his long-time American wife, and their 2 beautiful toddlers: https://t.co/RM4GCG0O8C — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AllenMa58298964 @johnpilger Ah, fair enough. Snowden has built a very gratifying life there - here's his wife with him and their two beautiful toddlers. https://t.co/yhwC2FmEHR — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@mhp_1776 I love how you have "Fuck Putin" in your avatar while you demand that journalists you hate be thrown into a dungeon (as part an indictment brought by the Trump DOJ and CIA Director Mike Pompeo, which you cheer). https://t.co/inP7xzvTpS — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In left-liberal politics and media circles: * Taylor Lorenz is a journalist but Julian Assange and Matt Taibbi aren't. * Trump's bitchy, campy insults about Jim Acosta and Chuck Todd are grave assaults on press freedoms, but the conviction-free imprisonment of Assange is not. https://t.co/N8eJPrkdOV — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The US and UK have kept Assange effectively imprisoned for more than a decade -- and actually imprisoned for 4 years -- without ever convicting him of anything beyond bail jumping. It's the worst attack on press freedom in the West. Most US journalists don't care or cheer. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AllenMa58298964 @johnpilger People like you who get off on watching journalists deported and imprisoned sound like you're who would be very comfortable going there. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also, as @johnpilger notes, the first on-air TV personality there has no idea what she's talking about. She thinks Assange is in prison because he's "serving out his term" on a conviction. False: US/UK have been keeping him imprisoned with no conviction: https://t.co/zFeUJWVBIU — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This video from Australia shows a likely scenario: 1) Biden DOJ does not want to bring Assange to US: pro-Assange protests, disclosure risks, the free press stain on his legacy. 2) Australia's PM can look like a hero while providing the pretext to avoid this ("give him to us"): — PolitiTweet.org

@Nightcrawler257 The censorship (and other state actions) have targeted almost entirely Bolsonaro's supporters while most of the Brazilian left has cheered, though even one left-wing party (@PCO) and other left-wing voices have been banned by the Court for objecting to this censorship regime. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@sugaree56 You're here following me on Twitter, taking time to comment on my work and express your views about it to me, and in general seem borderline-obsessed with me. So while your words proclaim my irrelevance, your actions and clear cravings tell a much different story. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 https://t.co/sivqx1kQLk — PolitiTweet.org
