Even the media outlets liberals most revere have now stated authoritatively that the laptop was genuine all along: NYT, WPost, CNN, CBS, etc. As a result, Twitter now has appended to those who spread the lie -- such as @jrpsaki -- notes that theirpre-election claims were false. https://t.co/wuwdVix963 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The 2 worst media offenders in spreading this lie were NBC and CNN. They put one liar after the next on to say this laptop was forged and came from Russia. @RepAdamSchiff as usual, took the lead in lying. He should be removed from the Intel Comm for this: https://t.co/o6CCIhcSTm — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The consequences of this CIA/media lie cannot be overstated. Most corporate outlets repeated it over and over until Election Day. Biden, @jrpsaki, @benrhodes used it to accuse anyone - including journalists - asking about his activities in Ukraine and China of being a Kremlin spy https://t.co/zphi87lXFR — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Once these CIA, NSA and DHS operatives -- among them the most unscrupulous career liars and war criminals: John Brennan, James Clapper, Michael Hayden and Leon Panetta -- signed onto this lie, they handed it to POLITICO's @NatashaBertrand, now of CNN, who uncritically spread it: https://t.co/59QNRRuZsk — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Two weeks before the 2020 election, 51 US Security State operatives signed a letter affirming a clear lie: the Biden archive was Russian disinformation. Almost all were CIA, including 3 of Obama's CIA Directors, plus Bush/Cheney's chief of CIA and NSA, and Obama's DHS head. — PolitiTweet.org

@BrianRovner The second paragraph is objective statement of fact. https://t.co/OIgjKzm6gx — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is the thing most mystifying to me in all this: Fine, liberals like more online censorship and conservatives like less: in part because the censorship benefits liberals. But why can't everyone agree that the US Security State (DHS/FBI) should have *no role* in any of this? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@scubas84 @ArthurSchwartz There are few journalists with more experience authenticating large archives: I've worked with WL, obviously on the Snowden and Brazil archive. On the Biden archive, we had 1) 3rd party verification immediately and 2) refusal of the Bidens to deny authenticity: 2 key factors. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@scubas84 @ArthurSchwartz You have no idea what you're talking about because liberal outlets ignored the archive authentication evidence. We had a witness who received *the key docs* on China and Ukraine deals in real time show them 1week after the first NY Post report came out. https://t.co/9t6TNi7MwC — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ArthurSchwartz @scubas84 Exactly. In the past when we've verified large archives - the WikiLeaks archives, Snowden archive, Brazil archive - a key method was to find someone who received the docs in real time to show it matches word-for-word what's in the archive. We had that with the Biden archive, too. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@scubas84 The video explains in details why all the classic indicia of archive authenticity we have always used to verify large archives - WikiLeaks archives, Snowden archive, Brazil archive - was present from the start with the Biden archive. I can't help that you're too lazy to watch it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@tedlieu @Sean93061307 @GOPLeader That's empirically false - far more conservatives than liberals have been censored (which is why Dems love the censorship regime & GOP hates it). More important: Dems spent 2 years *explicitly threatening punishment* if Big Tech doesn't censor more: https://t.co/KBMZpFjqpj — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Don't underestimate how much journalist rage and bitterness is from impotence. I first saw it in the Snowden story: they were furious independent journalists got that. You see it now with the success of Taibbi/Weiss/others on Substack/Rumble/YT. Read this https://t.co/IgnGFEqEcN — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@scubas84 I've explained many times. First, the burden of proof is on media outlets asserting a fact: there was never proof, or evidence, that this archive was "Russian disinformation." Second, all the indicia of archive authenticity was there *from the start*: https://t.co/DXsjPrCRgw — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In his new article, @mtaibbi addresses corporate's media's insane conspiracy theories about what "conditions" he supposedly agreed to from Musk: beyond reporting it on Twitter, almost none. This explanation about why journalists are so enraged is key: https://t.co/3V5KDj0ka3 https://t.co/w8e0ZJVkVU — PolitiTweet.org

RT @mirandadevine: Never forget that Adam Schiff, using his authority as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, lied repeatedly in O… — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The vast majority of major US media outlets spent the last days and weeks before the 2020 election spreading and ratifying an absolute, demonstrable lie -- that the Biden archive was "Russian disinformation" -- and, to this day, not a single one has retracted or explained it: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@HoopsStuff @michaelharriot The reporting on the Twitter files are among the most viral, re-tweeted, and widely discussed journalistic revelations of the year. Congress will investigate. That you and your tiny cloistered enclave of liberal partisans doesn't care doesn't mean anything except that. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This --☝️-- is the utter idiocy and dead-end hateful divisiveness to which this reactionary racialized discourse leads. But it produces likes, and no white liberal on NBC of CNN can criticize it, so it continues to produce benefits for its propagators while harming everyone else. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Here's the Stanford Professor of Medicine who was censored by the regime built and applied by "rich white men": @DrJBhattacharya, whose views on COVID school closings were vindicated. @michaelharriot is defending his silencing by "rich white men": https://t.co/DZKzQg1uHb — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also: the other person doing this reporting is Bari Weiss, but since she's a Jewish lesbian, she has to be erased because she negates @michaelharriot's little narrative about "rich white men." So, like all the black and female "Bernie Bros," you just erase them and they're gone. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I honestly can barely imagine a more dreary or toxic existence than going around judging every person, idea and political question solely through the stunted lens of to which race, gender and sexual orientation each belongs: as balkanizing and imprisoning as it gets -- for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also, the people who most benefited from the censorship regime defended by @michaelharriot -- a regime built and controlled largely by "rich white men" -- are other "rich white men," starting with Joe Biden and his donors, for whose benefit critical reporting was censored. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The people who created and applied these "rules" that @michaelharriot is defending were also "rich white men," for those who believe this is somehow a relevant metric for judging ideas and people. The FBI, with whom they met weekly, has often been popular among rich white men. — PolitiTweet.org

@RoKhanna @Jamie_Maz @mdrayton @ShelbyTalcott Anyway, these are complex and important questions, and I'd love to have you soon on our new live nightly show -- designed to explore complex and important discussions in deliberative and civil ways - that's debuting on Monday. https://t.co/LkDX1hSVJF — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RoKhanna @Jamie_Maz @mdrayton @ShelbyTalcott Right, I think the starting point has to be: Twitter's chief censors were clearly and easily recognizably left-liberals: the most politicized, dogmatic, fanatic version of it. Most political censorship decisions were thus the one-sided byproduct of their dissent-free partisanship — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RoKhanna @Jamie_Maz @mdrayton @ShelbyTalcott Right, and the other problem is these terms are sometimes clear. but usually debatable. People constantly argue about when Israel criticism becomes anti-Semitic, crime/affirmative-action debates become racist, gender ideology debates become transphobic, etc. Very blurry lines. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RoKhanna @Jamie_Maz @mdrayton @ShelbyTalcott But the whole point of time, place and manner restrictions is that you do allow the activity to take place, just not in a specific way (ie, "you can have a protest, but not at midnight through a residential neighborhood"). You're saying this speech should never be allowed here. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RoKhanna @Jamie_Maz @mdrayton @ShelbyTalcott Right, if you recognize that what you're advocating goes beyond what Brandenburg allows, then I have no disagreement with the factual claim (though I would with the policy). Elon previously said the law would guide him but it left some wiggle room: https://t.co/NWbclj0l1Y — PolitiTweet.org
