Glenn Greenwald & his lackeys are now trying to deny McVeigh was white supremacist. McVeigh was obsessed w/ the race war novel Turner Diaries that came out of neo-Nazi National Alliance who Greenwald defended as clients after they stabbed Mexican laborers. https://twitter.com/nickmartin/status/1315484452823289856
