@PETEKEELEY Al Qaeda's justification for 9/11 was that American citizens deserve to die for the violent and aggressive acts of their government: the same argument you're using to justify calls for the deaths of all Russians. Good company. — PolitiTweet.org

@PETEKEELEY The Hollywood Reporter sends its copy editor to justify genocide. — PolitiTweet.org

@StreamLIVE_in4D Indeed: Rush Limbaugh was well known for accusing the US Security State of constantly lying. Criticizing the CIA and the corporate media means you're a right-wing fanatic. To be a liberal requires reverence for those entities. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

"Disinformation" is what liberal corporate media spreads, not what they combat. They -- and their allies in the US Security State -- use the term to mean: anything that questions or deviates from our decreed beliefs. That's the functional definition of the term. — PolitiTweet.org

There was a mid-20th-Century ideology that also called for the extermination of all Russians and the destruction of Russia as a country. It's the same ideology that current-day Ukrainian national hero Stepan Bandera supported. https://t.co/kpirogK3o1 — PolitiTweet.org

Here's a nice tweet advocating the death of 144 million people by one of our inspiring democracy-loving Ukrainian partners.🇺🇦 Good thing Big Tech - always aligned with US foreign policy - changed its "content moderation" rules to allow advocacy of violence against Russians. — PolitiTweet.org

One of the easiest thing in politics to understand is who are the small sliver of people who benefit from the always increasing, wildly inflated annual military budget, and why members of Congress in both parties are so eager to do their bidding: https://t.co/Y4cCqPnZ9X — PolitiTweet.org

@brockm Yes, the Right also invented the tactic of accusing their political opponents of being Kremlin agents. That's the point: establishment liberals have fully adopted the mindset and tactics of the old Right. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The liberal Defenders of Democracy™ support a union of state and corporate power to censor their opponents; revere CIA and FBI; want the NSA and DHS to spy on Americans and decree Truth; and want their enemies (including journalists) prosecuted under sedition and espionage laws. https://t.co/hzqXpeEhvr — PolitiTweet.org

Malcolm Nance says that Americans who don't support his party are not "real Americans" and should leave the country to go live in Russia. How come so many of the self-proclaimed democracy defenders constantly sound like petty authoritarians? — PolitiTweet.org

@theRealMKNY No. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Both votes had overwhelming bipartisan consensus. The 2023 military budget -- far larger than any other country -- had only 101 NO votes to 329 YES votes. 62 Republicans voted NO along with 39 Dems. The establishment wings of the two parties fully agree on the largest questions. https://t.co/ZUz06DvsJI — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In May, Biden requested $33b to give to Raytheon and the CIA "for the war in Ukraine." Congress, on a bipartisan basis, arbitrarily increased it by $7b to $40b. This month, Biden requested $803b for 2023 military spending. Congress arbitrarily increased it by $37b, to $840b. — PolitiTweet.org

How many times must straight liberals decree that if you want to talk to LGBTs about issues within the LGBT community, these are *not* the right LGBTs? Yes, their lives have been shaped by these questions, but they're off-limits. Check first with liberals on who is approved: — PolitiTweet.org

@rheinwaldjones @espiers Yes, I was able to do well precisely because I always had a large readership who believed in the value of my work and was thus willing to support it, exactly as I said. That continues to be true to this very day, where the bulk of my income comes from readers. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@zrahul2020 @espiers There's zero chance she didn't understand that point. With no other argument left, she resorted to implying I'm a racist by distorting my argument into one where I was accusing her of bigotry toward white men. Almost every discussion with a liberal pundit ends with that game. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@espiers No, your bigotry is against the non-white and female conservatives whose existence you deny and ignore so that you can pretend you're only criticizing white men. — PolitiTweet.org

NYT on Trump and the Saudis (Khashoggi's murder "demands that no one in Saudi Arabia, certainly not the crown prince, escape accountability").

@espiers I think your tactic is bigotry masquerading as enlightenment: like when journalists pretended Bernie's most vocal supporters were white guys ("Bernie Bros"), thus erasing his fervent female/non-white supporters. Conservatives object to gender ideology, not just the white ones. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@espiers It's OK to criticize people's views even if they're not white males. You don't have to pretend the perspective you want to critique is one that's the exclusive provenance of white men before it's OK to disagree with it. Many female and non-white conservatives also hold that view. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@BrianRovner Nobody thinks the US should go to war against Saudi Arabia. The issue is that Biden is actively supporting and propping up the Saudi dictatorship with arms, money and diplomatic support after vowing during the campaign to turn them into "pariahs." — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@espiers I don't know how you're able to discern the race and especially sex/gender of people who are in your time-line - how do you know that? - but if there's any difference in interest in pronouns, women (such as JK Rowling) are among the most vocal critics of this new gender ideology. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is genuinely hilarious: 1) the headline on Jim Risen's Intercept article about the 1/6 hearings; 2) the concluding paragraph of that article; 3) the Intercept's fundraising pitch that immediately follows that article. https://t.co/iKNrV209QX — PolitiTweet.org
