@amick87 So hilarious how stupid American liberals are claiming I was rooting for Bolsonaro to win while stupid bolsonarists like you are claiming I'm some sort of hard-core petista. Can you two get together and work this out? — PolitiTweet.org

@HoaxAlertsNow He's publicly silent. He's about to meet, or is now meeting with, Supreme Court judges. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This article and thread suggests Bolsonaro, about to meet with SupCt judges, is mostly concerned about statements by hard-core PT loyalists he'll be arrested. I always thought he would leave peacefully in exchange for de facto amnesty for him and his kids https://t.co/q2jSPbxdAu — PolitiTweet.org

@TiaLuDF Se você está zangado porque a condenação de Lula foi anulada porque Sergio Moro agiu de forma corrupta, você deveria estar zangado com Sergio Moro, não com os jornalistas que o denunciaram. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@l30pereira I'm aware of this. Nothing I said suggests otherwise. Twitter's space constraints prevent that kind of explicit explanation but most people are aware from their own countries that the election winner doesn't become president the next day. — PolitiTweet.org

Eu sei que muitas que apoiaram o impeachment de Dilma agora são ícones queridos [Simone! Alckmin! Vera! "golpistas"--> 😍😍😍], mas foi quando PSDB/Globo se recusaram a aceitar a derrota de Aécio e tentou reverter o resultado, que muito desse espírito antidemocrático começou. https://t.co/ea9exkFnOA — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@idc5000 Since Brazil redemocratized, the transfer of power has ben largely peaceful, though the center-right and its media allies never accepted their loss to Dilma in 2014 and so impeached her in 2016 on absolute bullshit charges. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@LaserGatorX I haven't seen every video but the claim there is some sort of widespread, arbitrary, systemic murdering of Bolsonaro supporters is complete bullshit. A 27-year-old Lula supporter was murdered on election night, and 4 others injured, while celebrating his win. Nothing systemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@houseallvets Hard to say, but there's no question Bolsonaro and bolsonarismo has immense support. He got close to 49% of the vote, and his party is now the largest in both houses of Congress and will control key governorships. Police are largely on his side. The military is most important. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It seems clear that Bolsonaro has little institutional support for any attempt to defy the election outcome. Most key pro-Bolsonaro political figures are already saying Lula is president. But the potential for real strife remains, especially as long as Bolsonaro stays silent. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Brazil's media outlets continue to report Bolsonaro does not intend to contest the outcome. Key allies have already recognized Lula's victory. But anyone in WhatsApp groups of police and similar groups know there is intense anger and support for serious resistance to Lula's win. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

As Bolsonaro remains silent and publicly invisible for the second full day following his defeat, pro-Bolsonaro protests have erupted throughout the country, blocking key roads, airports and bridges. The Supreme Court has ordered police to began removing the protesters. — PolitiTweet.org

@winsometulip "Fascism" is what Lee and Ken exposed today -- the merger of state and corporate power to censor and propagandize the internet -- and Fox is the only outlet willing to cover and denounce this. In other words, only Fox is willing to denounce this case of classic fascism. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BrakTalk Fox aired stories constantly during the Trump years that were highly critical of the US Security State. I know because I was involved in many of those segments, but they aired stories like this constantly when Trump was president. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is the same reason no national Dem politicians or NBC/CNN/MSNBC hosts have trumpeted Lee and Ken's stories: only Fox hosts and GOP politicians: CIA and FBI are revered in left-liberal politics, as is censorship, so this story doesn't bother them. https://t.co/o9nK1JYJEu — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The reason only Fox shows are willing to air stories that are critical of the US Security State -- like the gigantic one broken by Lee Fang today -- is because the rest of them (NBC, MSNBC, CNN) *employ* agents of the US Security State, and thus mindlessly mimic what they say. https://t.co/8M1jWqaw6c — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This, by the way, is how @atrupar became a beloved liberal Twitter personality: sits in front of Fox all day taking pictures of the TV and posts them to tattle on who goes on Fox. That's it. Doesn't even post videos because the substance is irrelevant: https://t.co/t5Ye0gxRtw — PolitiTweet.org

@JSelway3 @ryanlcooper Sorry! Shame emoji ----> 🫢 And yes, that ("he's on Fox and thus what he said should be disregarded") is a perfect example of the ad hominem fallacy. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@JSelway3 @ryanlcooper You don't know what ad hominem means. I didn't just call Ryan Cooper stupid (even that wouldn't be an example of the ad hominem fallacy). I explained why he's stupid: because he thinks Lee explaining this on Fox is more important than the huge revelations of the story itself. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Just stop and think: imagine how stunted your brain must be to see a huge story like this about the US Security State controlling the internet and think it's *a bad thing* the reporter can explain it to millions of people. Please watch the segment here: https://t.co/OSy04LLVZV — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Democratic partisans in media are really the stupidest people ever to live. Lee and Ken broke an indisputably huge story with original documents showing the US Security State's role in censoring the internet, and DNC boys like @ryanlcooper can only think to complain he's on Fox. https://t.co/78UdXaSTUW — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The story Lee, along with @kenklippenstein broke, is one of the top 10 most important acts of reporting this year. I highly encourage you to read their article. See Lee's amazing thread here. DNCAaron is actually upset and confused it's being covered. https://t.co/X9fyihCBsK — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I'm glad that there are a handful of TV shows willing to critically report on the US Security State, and how it is the real director of Big Tech's banning of online dissent. Fortunately, the only shows that cover it are the only ones with an audience: https://t.co/4B44HauLtL — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Because he broke a major story revealing it is the Biden Admin -- specifically the US Security State -- which directs Big Tech's censorship program to serve its own interests. Obviously, CNN or MSNBC wouldn't touch this story while people like Aaron are too dumb to understand it. — PolitiTweet.org

@GugaNoblat Acho que o que você fez - ir todos os dias a um lugar onde seus pontos de vista eram uma clara minoria entre aqueles que trabalham lá e o público - foi extremamente importante e você fez isso bem. Boa sorte em seus próximos passos. — PolitiTweet.org

@Ithinkwithreas1 I don't think Rumble has any plans for X-rated programming but they're a pretty responsive company so if you write to them and share these fantasies you're nurturing, you never know what they might do for you. — PolitiTweet.org
