@terrybythebay Are you aware of anyone in Congress more vehemently opposed to the US role in the war in Ukraine? Or the evils of the CIA, FBI and NSA? Or the union of Big Tech and DHS to censor the internet? Or who more vocally defends Snowden and Assange and works for their liberation? — PolitiTweet.org

@NegDiscountRt @mehdirhasan My income doesn't depend on Rumble or Substack subscribers, but I love how liberals now believe that the nation's largest media corporations and their multi-millionaire hosts don't care about ratings and don't ever do anything to get people to watch so they can sell ads. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Exactly. Who they declare off-limits and who isn't in DC tells you so much about their values. It's totally fine to interview warmongers, neocons, CIA chiefs, FBI goons, etc. All their favorite journalists and networks do it every day. I'd interview them, too: anyone with power. — PolitiTweet.org

@ventures1984 Parabéns por ter um país que, através da censura, eliminou o fascismo e o racismo. É uma conquista muito impressionante. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@johnpike15 That's complete bullshit. What prominent member of Congress who is a Democrat has called Assange and Snowden heroes who should be pardoned? Which voted against sending $40b to CIA and Raytheon "for Ukraine"? Which denounce the union of Big Tech and DHS to censor the internet? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Any journalist who would refuse the opportunity to interview powerful politicians because they don't agree with everything the politician thinks, or because they strongly dislike the politician's views, doesn't merit the term "journalist." This is beyond basic: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@StopeCope @kmaxtastic @SystemUpdate_ @RepMTG These people are so fucking stupid that they can't comprehend that journalists interview influential politicians without having to agree with them first on everything. They denounced the interview before seeing it. But the real issue is this: https://t.co/mv8OBcLrW0 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@kmaxtastic @SystemUpdate_ @RepMTG MTG is one of the only prominent. politicians in Washington who vehemently defend Assange and Snowden, call them heroes, and campaigned for their pardon. No Dem is willing to do this. There was never a time when I believed journalists should only interview those they agree with. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@cemeconhece Se eu entrevistasse Geraldo Alckmin, pessoas como você entenderiam mesmo que a esquerda o acusasse por 2 décadas de ser fascista, racista e culpado de genocídio. Você não sabe nada sobre MTG ou suas opiniões. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@alexkotch Perhaps your inability to understand that the job of a journalist is to interview powerful people without first having to agree with them on everything - or anything - is one of the reasons for your failures and lack of accomplishments? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@johnpike15 Of all the pitiful attributes of the American left, one of the saddest is the inability to understand that speaking with or interviewing someone does not require full agreement with them. How can you not process this? The real issue, though, is this: https://t.co/mv8OBcLrW0 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@the_best_frank Please explain to me how your brain is able to turn on a computer while being unable to process the extremely basic and long-standing principle that the job of a journalist is to interview politicians even if they don't fully agree with them. Also: https://t.co/mv8OBcLrW0 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@lorentzianweeb The world's stupidest people are those who think that interviewing a politician means you agree with them, right up there with those who think that opposing censorship of a person means you agree with them. The stupidity needed to think this is infinite. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@NickSMartin4 I'm sorry all of your heroes voted on command to send $40 billion to the CIA and Raytheon "for Ukraine": that none will denounce the CIA, NSA and FBI; that all support the union of Big Tech and DHS censorship; that none will defend Assange and Snowden, while MTG does all of that. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@cynaramenezes Não, não foi isso que ela disse. Ela se desculpou por muitas de suas declarações anteriores. Ela é nova na política e diz que está aprendendo. Mas mesmo se ela dissesse isso, o que isso significaria? Sou jornalista. Devo evitar entrevistar políticos poderosos com opiniões ruins? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Adam Schiff spent 5 years blatantly lying and spreading one false conspiracy theory after the next. He claimed the Kremlin effectively controlled the US, the Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation," and saw direct proof of "collusion." I bet it's OK to interview him, right? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

"I'm enraged that journalist would interview one of the most influential members of Congress" -- things only US liberals say. If you find a more vehement opponent of CIA, FBI, NSA, the war in Ukraine, Big Tech censorship and the persecution of Assange and Snowden, let me know. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Kirtaner @RepMTG Who are the members of Congress who haven't spread "nutcase" conspiracies? Unlike them, she's admitted past mistakes and renounced them. And you apparently never learned in childhood that if you close your eyes and pretend bad things aren't there, they don't actually disappear. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

We'll devote our full @SystemUpdate_ episode to our discussion with the Congresswoman on a wide range of topics: America First foreign policy; Ukraine; her vehement opposition to CIA, FBI and Big Tech; her advocacy for Assange and Snowden, and much more: https://t.co/gZTF0MaQ9x — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I'm looking forward to our discussion tonight with @RepMTG, starting in 15 minutes. Like AOC, MTG's influence is not from corporate PAC donations or pleasing lobbyists, but organic popularity. Unlike AOC, she continues to defy her own Party's leadership and many core pieties. — PolitiTweet.org

@eliseugabs @FabioDo81206734 Não argumentei que o sucesso do bolsonarismo se deve ao regime de censura que Moraes, a grande mídia corporativa e a esquerda apoiam. Eu simplesmente observei que, à medida que a censura se fortaleceu, o movimento Bolsonaro também. Historicamente, geralmente é isso que acontece. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@gustavofoia @FabioDo81206734 Moraes censura os bolsonaristas desde pelo menos 2019. As leis que criminalizam o racismo e o fascismo já existiam antes da eleição de Bolsonaro. Eles não parecem estar trabalhando muito bem para deter o bolsonarismo, que, apesar da derrota de Jair, está mais forte do que nunca. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@FabioDo81206734 Parabéns pelo sucesso do seu regime de censura. Qual partido tem o mais assentos no Senado e na Câmara? Quando o Partido Nazista faz uma manifestação nos EUA, 20 pessoas aparecem, com milhares contra. Você está afirmando que o Brasil eliminou fascismo e racismo com a censura? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

A censura torna os alvos mais fortes, não mais fracos. Qual partido tem mais assentos no Senado e na Câmara? Também envia o sinal de que os caminhos democráticos para a mudança - debate, persuasão, falar com os concidadãos - está fechado, incentivando métodos mais extremos. — PolitiTweet.org
