This is insane. Ebay founder @pierre has been paying Glenn Greenwald up to $518,000 per annum to blog about a mythical "deep state" that has been colluding with Hillary Clinton to undermine America's "elected president" Trump for resisting WW3 and "regime change" in Syria. https://twitter.com/charliearchy/status/1018518668882276352
Hey @democracynow: how about you ask Greenwald about his Brazilian mansion, his insane salary, and the gender pay gap at @theintercept next time you host him for his rambling conspiracy-theorising?
For the price of one @GGreenwald, @pierre could have funded an entire media operation, with at least 5 first-rate journalists & substantial investigative funds. This is such a waste of money; but that's minor compared to the damage that its doing to public discourse.
Greenwald, who had earlier joined a British fascist to criticise @theintercept's coverage of Syria, is now making common cause with the LePen supporter & David Duke ally "Partisan Girl" to disavow his publication's collaboration with the respected investigators at @bellingcat
Days after Tucker Carlson called the concern over #JamalKhashoggi's assassination a "stunt", @pierre's execrable hatchet-man Glenn Greenwald joined the Fox white supremacist to denounce journalists outraged over the murder. This man is so repulsive.
So @GGreenwald and @TuckerCarlson have managed to turn even the gruesome murder of a journalist into a partisan/sectarian issue, railing against those who have shown empathy or called for accountability. https://twitter.com/THR/status/1054174418275053568?s=19
Meet @GGreenwald, Ebay billionaire @pierre's overpaid Twit, who frequently appears on a white supremacist show on Fox, but believes the real enemies of the volk are centrists.
Greenwald is now berating companies for "censoring" Tucker Carlson by withholding advertising money from his Fox News show. Yes, he believes a white man with a prime spot on Fox News is persecuted unless advertisers proffer dollars to underwrite his racism.
Greenwald is actually comparing a white supremacist to Marc Lamont Hill and the Texas teacher who was fired for not denouncing BDS!
Remember Tucker Carlson, the white supremacist Fox News host whose advertisers fled because of his racism? The one whose publication promoted fake @AOC nudes? Well, @GGreenwald was on it once again, to defend Tulsi Gabbard & to paint Bashar al Assad as a victim of America.
The man who was willing to believe the worst about Syrian dissidents is of course ready to go on a white supremacist show and give the benefit of every doubt to MAGA boys harassing a Native elder.
Remember that time when Tucker blamed immigrants of America's littering problem? https://twitter.com/im_PULSE/status/1030075720335282176
Man for whom it took Roger Stone's arrest to recognise that the US runs an oppressive penal state says it shouldn't take Roger Stone's arrest for people to recognise that the US runs an oppressive penal state.
What's going on @theintercept? Another of their bloggers—Zaid Jilani—is on Tucker Carlson attacking Democrats for calling on Gov. Northam to resign. (In 2016 this fellow had also argued that Hillary Clinton, not Trump, posed the real authoritarian threat)
And of course this inordinately stupid person is now being defended by Greenwald.
I might add that I agree that one mistake should not damn any person for life. None of us is infallible. But that is if a person has shown some contrition for the mistake and tried to atone somehow. Jilani's argument is disingenuous and his comparison is false.
So Greenwald is second only to Donald Trump in his popularity with Russia Today https://twitter.com/conspirator0/status/1094471645203496960

Recently @theintercept had to lay off fact-checkers & researchers. But if just 5,000 of you could donate $103 each, you'll cover one year of @GGreenwald's salary so he can continue blogging fearlessly about Neera Tanden from his Rio de Janeiro mansion https://join.theintercept.com/donate/now/
Look at how happy he is to go on Fox News and trash democrats and progressives. Apparently Putin is not the problem; @maddow and @chrislhayes are. (Remember: this guy is paid a fortune by billionaire @pierre & is the most frequent guest on @democracynow) https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1107833715399512064?s=19
Greenwald has been back on the white supremacist Tucker Carlson's show (which along with Laura Ingraham and @democracynow is among the three places he frequents) and he is attacking CNN and MSNBC. He believes he has been vindicated by Mueller. He hasn't.
Glenn Greenwald's claim was that "Russiagate" is something invented by the Democratic Party in alliance with a "Deep State" to undermine America's "non-interventionist" "elected president". Mueller was supposed to be the catspaw of the Deep State.
Greenwald believes Mueller has debunked "Russiagate". He hasn't. But if he had, what kind of a "Deep State" does that make Trump's detractors? Mueller in fact proved Russian interference beyond doubt. Indicted at least 7 conspirators; 12 GRU officers. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/2/20/17031772/mueller-indictments-grand-jury
Hey @GGreenwald: Your friend Tucker believes @chrislhayes is bespectacled & effeminate, overly concerned with global warming. Please help me with an experiment. Go on Tucker & this time DISAGREE with him so we can find out what he REALLY thinks about YOU. https://www.thedailybeast.com/tucker-carlson-chris-hayes-is-what-every-man-would-be-if-feminists-had-absolute-power?source=twitter&via=desktop
Malice in Wonderland. Greenwald is now attacking his own comrades at @theintercept using the classic Your Lying Eyes defence about the Mueller report.
On the day that Chris Wallace called out "opinion people" on his own network for denying reality, @GGreenwald of @theintercept appears on white nationalist Tucker Carlson's Fox show to insist that Mueller has exonerated Trump.
The person liking this infantile screech from a zany astrologer is @theintercept co-founder, @democracynow-mainstay, Tucker Carlson-BFF, and @pierre's own Glenn Greenwald.
Overpaid libertarian blogger @ggreenwald was a vocal supporter of the Iraq war before reinventing himself as a Bush critic. He suckered @pierre into paying him millions to play leftwing dissident before fully embracing his id as a right-wing contrarian. https://thebanter.substack.com/p/glenn-greenwald-black-lives-dont?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&utm_source=twitter
Recently Adolph Reed revealed that he was offered $2000 by American Affairs journal but he declined it because he didn't want to write for an actual Nazi publication. As he reveals, AA is deliberately cultivating lefties to launder its image. Guess who has come to its defence?
Here is the Adolph Reed revelation that @GGreenwald is "confused" about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=7199&v=wwPDTkKJVDk&feature=emb_logo&ab_channel=KatieHalper
And of course this wasn't Greenwald's only dubious flirtation. He also appeared on Tucker Carlson's white power hour to defend Julian Assange, who was GRU's main conduit during the 2016 election (and asked Trump Jr. for an ambassadorship in return for helping to elect his father)
The Tucker appearance was apparently part of a deliberate campaign. @emptywheel has details. https://www.emptywheel.net/?p=85582
. @GGreenwald became a media star after Laura Poitras handed him the Snowden story & made a flattering film about him. Being the asshole that he is, he got @pierre to pay him 3 times Poitras's salary & is now dishing on her with the @RollingStone tools.
