Revolutionary France
Greg HethertonGlenn GreenwaldSpent the week outside the city with the kids and various dogs, reading this biography of Voltaire, the Enlightenment, and pre-Revolutionary France, and can't recommend it highly enough. So many of the debates we have now, and the authoritarianism we fight, have roots right here. https://t.co/6vuL9kSYWA

Escapes: Stories
Joy WilliamsGlenn Greenwald"Hello, I work at NBC News, where my colleagues are John "CIA" Brennan, Joy "Hackers" Reid, Brian "War Stories" Williams, and Bill Kristol, who needs no introduction. I'm really concerned about the disinformation spread by Joe Rogan. We must get him off the air.

JFK: The Book of the Film
Oliver StoneGlenn Greenwald@flmfrkcentral I had just spent several hours meeting with Oliver Stone at my house before that episode - the same day - and we had discussed many matters, including his experiences after having made JFK, so perhaps I knew a bit more about it than those who hadn't just done that.

Abortion: The Clash of Absolutes
Laurence H. TribeGlenn Greenwald@AMF2440 @GavinNewsom I didn't say either of those two things but, as the Court noted in the second page of its ruling, Professor Laurence Tribe said exactly that: Roe has no constitutional basis, but he'd support pro-abortion laws. https://t.co/vVmzoEMhuH

The Devil's Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the Cia, and the Rise of America's Secret Government

I'll Burn That Bridge When I Get to It
Norman FinkelsteinGlenn GreenwaldThis story -- from Norman Finkelstein's book "I'll Burn that Bridge When I Get to it!" -- on how and why he was banished by Amy Goodman from appearing on @DemocracyNow is both hilarious and revealing. https://t.co/jnZVtN5MuQ

Before: Holding Their Own XVI
Joe NobodyGlenn GreenwaldThis was - and is - a gigantic scandal. The CIA, corporate media and Big Tech (including FB) all united *right before the election* to lie to the American public about information that reflected poorly on Joe Biden, and then brute censored it. @jack apologized. Nobody else has. https://t.co/eOElml70pB

The Democratic Party: A Political Study
Political ZeroGlenn GreenwaldThere's vastly more debate within the Republican Party -- not just on Ukraine but on most topics -- than there is within the Democratic Party. It's not even close. The tolerance level for even the smallest dissent in Democratic Party political and media circles is close to zero. https://t.co/rTkATTOabx

#russiagate: Truth, Post-Truth or Damned Lies?
Peter BoykinGlenn GreenwaldThe 4-part series just published by the Columbia Journalism Review -- written by Pulitzer-Prize-winning Jeff Gerth, for decades with the NYT -- is absolutely devastating on how casually, frequently, recklessly and eagerly the press lied on Russiagate. https://t.co/bNCGg48Xfi
