@davidpgoldman I haven't been at the Intercept for 1 1/2 years. Even when I was, I didn't edit or control what others wrote. I make no secret of my view of the I/P situation and it hasn't changed, so feel free to think of whatever you want about that, but I have nothing to do with TI's content. — PolitiTweet.org

@BikeMsMellyMell @briebriejoy As I told Bri, I don't agree with all of her arguments or conclusions. But there's no denying she mounted as good faith and studied a critique of him as has been heard for awhile. That itself is something to celebrate. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@SpeaksAngie Thanks. Few things are more repulsive than the attacks on Bri because they always embody and are driven by exactly the sentiments the liberal-left pretends to despise. And yes, it's very similar for you and -- good news! - will only intensify as you grow more. 😂 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

While Hillary's lawyer is on trial for allegedly lying to FBI about a fabricated Trump/Russia story pushed by liberal media, FBI is also investigating itself for more deceit used to obtain FISA warrants on Carter Page. There was indeed rampant criminality in the 2016 election: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@SpeaksAngie Exactly. Just as it's a huge coincidence that the primary left-liberal caricature of me comports perfectly to age-old, leading tropes about gay men and Jews: money-hungry groomer and pedophile wiling to say or do anything for a more dollars. — PolitiTweet.org

@Eric78915 Raise my children, write books, oversee our homeless-run animal shelter, support my husband's campaign, take care of and play with our 24 rescue dogs at home, write news articles, produce video reports, appear on shows, have dinner with friends. You? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

And it continues to amaze that the minute a member of one of the left's cherished :marginalized groups" steps even a little out of line, holy hell is unleashed on them: driven by exactly the racism, misogyny, etc. etc. they claim to deplore. Look at this: https://t.co/7xiLx4jhxV — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Anyway, whether you are a fan or critic of Carlson, I highly recommend her video. It restores faith that the best people on the left still know how to make good faith critique. As usual, Bri is about a zillion times better, smarter and more ethical than her most virulent critics. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The problem is @briebriejoy, as usual, took the time to make a good faith argument by honestly explaining what Carlson has and hasn't said, then proceeded to critique it. But because she didn't just repetitiously scream "Nazi!" and "racist!," her critics couldn't process it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I was genuinely shocked when I watched this @briebriejoy segment because I had seen left-liberals attacking her for days for being a Tucker Carlson/white nationalist apologist. Then I watched the video, and at least 85% of it is devoted to critiquing him and his views. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@TallywackerD @Bernstein @Harpers These claims are coming from left-liberal writers in left-liberal publications. You'll have to find some other clichéd meme to avoid confronting the information they present. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Just as it's so revealing and sad that the only dissent in Congress to Biden's war escalation comes from GOP, the same is true of this exceptional @RandPaul clip, where he notes the long history of government lying to note how pernicious the DHS Board is: https://t.co/OUUHcj0wH4 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

He heralds one of the best articles thus far on the utter fraud of the "anti-disinformation" industry: by Joe @Bernstein in @Harpers. Glad to see left-liberal outlets airing this: "disinformation experts" are just authoritarian liberals seeking control: https://t.co/R0uoVRe90i — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

And he makes the most important point of all. When Dems lost in 2016, they blamed everyone but themselves. They decided they lost because dumb voters were duped by "disinformation," so they created a new industry, funded by liberal billionaires and Govt, to decree Real Truth™: https://t.co/ZuPC5UJiwK — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

He nods to a few of what he sees as rhetorical excesses about Jankowicz herself (I think the objections to her were fastidiously factual). But he highlights the key point: "Government officials...are professional liars." Trusting *them* with "Disinformation Boards" is madness: https://t.co/mDHN6MB1Vx — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Unlike many left-liberals, Adler-Bell maintains the left's long-standing suspicion of the US Security State. He thus can see the glaring contradiction in the Jankowicz/Lorenz argument: the only way DHS could achieve its goals if it has the domestic censorship powers they deny: https://t.co/H1UujqFIQe — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

One of the smarter and more independent-minded left-liberal writers, @SamAdlerBell, has a good article in NY Magazine on the Nina Jankowicz/DHS fiasco, and the dangers of the "disinformation industry" in general which, he notes, is now a key Dem weapon: https://t.co/eUd0JOYYBi — PolitiTweet.org

@KristerJohnson You can ask some of the nice, patient adults in your life to explain the article to you. Also, it has a lot of pictures and visuals. https://t.co/4eNqszIO3I — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@KristerJohnson If you were capable of reading, you'd know the people who originated the warnings about Biden's cognitive decline were not me, but Dem Party insiders who knew him best because, in 2019, they were petrified he couldn't withstand the campaign's rigors (which COVID saved him from). https://t.co/vNIejIZ53N — PolitiTweet.org

@libsoftiktok @CJR 🤷‍♂️ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In 2019, Dem insiders and MSNBC "strategist" types were petrified Biden would get the nomination from name recognition because, they warned, he was clearly in cognitive decline. Then when he won the nomination, they said it was immoral to notice this. https://t.co/4eNqszIO3I — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

What do you think might explain this? https://t.co/ImHHEXv0xh — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Are there any liberal media or political figures concerned about how many Democrats have been trained to assert, and believe, that critics of their party are clandestine Kremlin assets? At some point, pervasive paranoia and mass delusion of this sort must be harmful, right? https://t.co/GQFGveRQTD — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Kolo_Scoler @libsoftiktok A large bulk of the liberal corporate press united to herald the story as important and vintage "shoe-lace journalism." And obviously, Washington Post editors thought it was good journalism, which is why they published it, then complimented it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@SunV0lt @CJR Democrats really have made their followers plagued by severe mental illness. They've infected millions of liberal mid-wits with this same extreme paranoid delusion. Your next of kin should sue Rachel Maddow for the damage she's done to your brain. https://t.co/3RYIUk7wg0 — PolitiTweet.org

Outing anonymous Twitter users with big social media followings is heroic "shoe-leather reporting" when the person has the wrong political ideology. When they're a self-identified "committed Democrat" attacking the DNC's enemies, the site obtains his real name, then conceals it. — PolitiTweet.org
