When I say - in the context of anger that Fox got 1/6 surveillance footage - that this is how journalism is done every day, this is what I mean. The CIA always calls @NatashaBertrand to give her non-public information, and she then mindlessly writes whatever they tell her to say: — PolitiTweet.org

@bubby_max @BulwarkOnline It's not a dig. Which media outlets a billionaire chooses to fund is relevant and newsworthy. That's why we disclosed our funding. I noted it because Omidyar has been funding Kristol for years. The Bulwark is pathetic because of what it publishes, not who funds it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Timodc You know I quit the Intercept. Why lie? I could have stayed forever. Even those who harbor the greatest animus for me there admit this. The difference between us is I have principles and a long line of journalistic accomplishments, while you're a sleazy Swamp scumbag and hack. https://t.co/Isb2cpz2AI — PolitiTweet.org

@bubby_max @BulwarkOnline I didn't create the world of capitalism, but to create and fund a news organization that pays reporters and editors a livable wage, has lawyers to protect the reporters and technologists to protect sources, etc., one needs funding, and that usually can only come from rich people. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There are very few people about whom I'd say this but Bill Kristol is an utterly amoral monster. His fingerprints are all over the worst American acts of the last 30 years. He hasn't apologized for anything or changed one view, yet Dems never wonder why he's aligned with them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@bubby_max @BulwarkOnline No, that's a lie. Omidyar had no involvement in "various projects" of mine. The sole project was he funded the Intercept, and the reason you know that is we announced and fully disclosed all of the Intercept's funding from the start, which is what a responsible news outlet does. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There are very few Americans with more blood on their hands and teeth than Bill Kristol. If you work for him, like life-long GOP operative @Timodc, you're among the last on earth with credibility to morally lecture on "sugar daddies" or anything else. https://t.co/9JRYzimmcR — PolitiTweet.org

"About half of college campuses -- more than twice as many as five years ago" -- have a system for students to secretly report other students for using "biased" words or reading "problematic" material. Many began as a snitching device for mask violations: https://t.co/p8lLZcPHIb — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The Bill-Kristol-led @BulwarkOnline, in standard neocon fashion, refuses to disclose its funding. But Omidary's connection to both the Bulwark and Kristol's various projects have been widely reported and well-documented. https://t.co/T3Wsbyba9g https://t.co/L75IJwVpkO — PolitiTweet.org

@_Almaqah That salary was for reporting many of the most significant and consequential stories of the last decade, including one that culminated in a criminal prosecution that was blocked by the Brazilian Supreme Court and freed Lula. But otherwise, great point. https://t.co/e2xMoG4qEK — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AdriftWind @Timodc Tim himself acknowledged it's a commonly reported claim, though he's claims it's been debunked. Where? Here are sites that reported it: https://t.co/dNIv31Ceot https://t.co/T3Wsbyba9g Many others. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Timodc You claimed nobody in that thread was funded Omidyar. The site where you work was the person I first mentioned: Bill Kristol. He has at least 2 projects, maybe more, funded by Omidary, rendering your statement false. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@alpharith @jakeshieldsajj The prosectors and judge were secretly plotting together to ensure conviction. The charges were selective. The judge, a national hero, crossed multiple ethical lines to the point the Supreme Court, long affirming his rulings, nullified Lula's conviction. https://t.co/H0979t14GF — PolitiTweet.org

@Appledust7 @jakeshieldsajj Right, I mean even if I had supported Lula, one would hope people who supported him will nonetheless criticize him when he errs. The widespread refusal to do that is a major problem. But I didn't support Lula's candidacy and don't know where this is coming from. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@jakeshieldsajj No, where did you get this from? This is invented. Ask any random follower of Lula or PT if this is true and they will have a good laughing fit. I did journalism that revealed grave corruption by the judge and prosecutors who imprisoned him. That's not politically supporting him. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@mattduss @ErikSperling @ForeignPolicy How is what you're doing to critics of the orthodox-in-DC view on Ukraine any different than what neocons were doing in 2002/3 to critics of Iraq and the War on Terror? In other words, you're claiming they closed off debate but you aren't. What did they do that you're not doing? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@MikeKrumrei @dandrezner I don't regard any human being including you as a "nobody" unworthy of dialogue, and if that's really how you see yourself, then you should work with someone on that. I've always believed journalists should engage criticisms regardless of the stature of those voicing them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Timodc If Omidyar funded Bill Kristol's projects - and he has - then your statement is false and you should correct it. If you point me to a credible debunking of the widely stated claim that Omidyar supports Bulwark, I'll note that. And yes, I stand by that tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@commie_kirkland LOL. Globo is one of the world's largest media conglomerates that played a key role in cheering the CIA-engineered coup that overthrow Brazil's democratically elected left-wing government in 1964 and then got rich by serving the subsequent US/UK-supported military dictatorship. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Timodc You're claiming that Pierre Omidyar has never funded any of Bill Kristol's projects? This is what you're affirming? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@MikeKrumrei @dandrezner That's a rational way to go about navigating the world and deciding what you believe. Maybe I shouldn't occupy such a central place in your mind? I like marriage equality, SS and Medicare, free speech, due process, inter-racial adoptions. Presumably you're skeptical of all that? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@dandrezner Leaving all else aside, you have to admit it's rather odd - given past history - that our interactions typically consist of your criticizing my praise of a conservative leader as you maintain loyalty to Dems. What hasn't changed is we still fight over your support for wars. — PolitiTweet.org

@roxslater What does it say that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, Adam Schiff, Pete Buttigieg and Cornel West all went on Fox? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

But, alas, this is the world we live in. Bernie, AOC and the Squad mindlessly march behind Biden's policy of endless proxy war. To hear skepticism on the war, one needs to listen to non-Europe nations, the international left, and Trump/DeSantis/.🤷‍♂️ https://t.co/rnRnw8dQE5 — PolitiTweet.org
