No matter who you vote for (except Trump), Victoria Nuland ends up running the parts of the world which most interests her, usually beginning with Ukraine. She's not a career civil servant. She's a political appointee, beloved by Dick Cheney, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Biden, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

From the day Russia invaded, Boris Johnson has been one of the world's most steadfast, extreme, fanatical and unyielding advocates for more and more Western support in the forms of arms and money to the war in Ukraine, along with people like Sens. Lindsey Graham and Chris Coombs. — PolitiTweet.org

@IsmaelAbensur @NauinT You are a Nazi so I don't think you're in a position to judge. — PolitiTweet.org

@Rezasho0n Are you having hearing difficulties? In the audio, Jordan Peterson specifically urged US and Western politicians to unite and implement a plan to foster regime change in Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@honseolo He was calling on the US Government to implement and plan and use its resources to change the government of Iran. How have such plans worked out in the past? Why Iran but not Saudi Arabia and Egypt, at least as repressive and brutal in their despotism? — PolitiTweet.org

@SerapChris @CJR How many examples of me criticizing the right just in the last month alone do you need to acknowledge that you're lying? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Totally agree. Always worth reading the media criticisms of @redsteeze. Tom and I don't agree on much but, on this, we do. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@keeptheasp @CJR Yes, he worked for George McGovern's presidential campaign but liberals decided he was some covert right-wing cypto-fascist because he was mean to the Clintons during the (admittedly small-stakes) Whitewater and Lewinsky "scandals." — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Yes, this is how I also remember it, and it's probably the thing of which I'm proudest in my journalism career. It came at a cost, but so worth it. Please read as much as you can of this 4-part indictment of the US media in @CJR. It's so damning. 👇👇 https://t.co/bNCGg48Xfi https://t.co/Jc4jsjNAGT — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

One of the most mainstream reporters in America - Jeff Gerth, Pulitzer winner who worked at NYT for 30 years - just published a scathing indictment in the equally mainstream @CJR about the media's serial lying in Russiagate, and the silence is deafening. https://t.co/dY6gCLOoha — PolitiTweet.org

@leguerrer2 Si eso es lo que hago, ¿por qué el gobierno de los Estados Unidos pasó dos años amenazándome con encarcelarme y planeando cómo hacerlo cuando publicábamos sus secretos por todo el mundo? ¿Por qué el gobierno brasileño me acusó por mis reportajes? ¿Por qué no te pasó esto a ti? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@lobachevscki President Zelensky told you what he wants you to do to help. You ignored him because you don't believe in the cause enough to put your own life on the line for it. As a result, millions of Ukrainian are forced to fight who don't want to, and are dying for this while you cheer. — PolitiTweet.org

@leguerrer2 Cada vez que quieras comparar lo que hemos hecho y sacrificado en nuestras vidas en defensa de estos valores, házmelo saber. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The Lincoln Project is one of the most brazen and transparent cons ever. The people who run and promote it continue to self-enrich right before the eyes of their donors and do nothing else. They got and get millions of free ads from MSNBC to help bilk gullible liberals for this: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@lobachevscki If you really believed that, you'd have heeded President Zelenksy's plea for brave men like you to go to Ukriane to help them fight the Russians. Instead, you ignored it in favor of posturing like a Tough Guy on Twitter. Actions speak louder than words: https://t.co/y4dcSsAGAr — PolitiTweet.org

Let's go kick Russia out of Ukraine, including Crimea, and also change the governments of China, Iran and Russia all at once, all while putting America First. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Also, I don't know what they do to people on those Israel trips but whatever it is, it's extremely effective. When you watch people come back from them transformed for life - like Ritchie Torres and Jordan Peterson - it's a marvel of psychology and propaganda. Credit where due. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Recent history has one lesson: US "regime change" operations work out horribly for *everyone except* the US arms industry and US Security State. They're particularly horrific for those in those countries the CIA claims they're trying to "save." Yet many continue to urge it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Many conservative voters keep making clear they overwhelmingly reject Bush/Cheney/neocon foreign policy orthodoxies, regime change wars, and trying to "fix" other countries, yet somehow keep ending up with "thought leaders" who sound like Dick Cheney and Bill Kristol in 2005. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is the reality: media corps like NYT, WPost, NBC, CNN know they're speaking only to and for Dems. So when they get caught lying to advance the Dem Party's cause, they know their audience is fine. They *like* it. So they ignore all critiques/questions about their misconduct. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Sitting atop the WashPost's page is the self-glorifying phrase: "Democracy Dies in Darkness." But, like most media outlets, they refused to respond to Gerth's questions about their gross errors and major conflicts. The more hated they become, the less accountable they are. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

One major change is that media corporations and corporate journalist just refuse to respond to or even acknowledge proof that they lied. Jeff Gerth expected they'd respond to him - he's been in mainstream media for decades, writing this for @CJR -- but look at what he found:👇 https://t.co/F7DZp1Td97 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

We now have 3 major lies revealed in the last 6 months that *most* corporate media spread: this Russiagate exposé, proof the Biden laptop wasn't "Russian disinformation," and the Hamilton68 fraud. *Not one outlet* that spread these lies acknowledged them https://t.co/dY6gCLOoha — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is a great thread on how utterly damning is the @CJR 4-part exposé on the media's systemic lying that drove the Russiagate hoax. Tonight's @SystemUpdate_, starting live in 5 minutes, is devoted to this. Few things reveal more about US corporate media https://t.co/dY6gCLOoha — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

All humans and human institutions will err. That includes journalists and media outlets. But when they just ignore proof that they lied - even when it's from mainstream sources like @CJR - that's the proof that their *function* is to lie, to spread disinformation, to deceive. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

What I find staggering - and this applies not only to this new CJR report on how they lied over and over, but also to similar lies they got caught spreading: Biden laptop is "Russian disinformation," Hamilton68 etc. - is they won't even acknowledge any of it let alone retract. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Tonight on @SystemUpdate_ , live at 7pm ET, we'll review the key findings of the devastating 4-part autopsy just published by @CJR about the corporate media's lying and recklessness on the Russiagate hoax, and what this says about their real function: https://t.co/dY6gCLOoha — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

But I'm glad Dems got the re-tweets and social media applause they crave above all by urging Biden deport him back to Brazil. A country can expel someone but not deport them "back to Brazil" absent charges and legal process. I doubt Lula wants that spectacle -- or civil strife. https://t.co/apM1rIP1HN — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The visa Bolsonaro used to enter the US while President has expired. He requested a new 6-month tourist visa. US progressives who called for him to be deported to Brazil were ignorant: no thought at all to whether Lula wants him there. So far: no charges or extradition requests. https://t.co/HrROjvOiX0 — PolitiTweet.org
