These people are complete authoritarians and have been for a long time.
Just like the people who most loudly claim to combat disinformation spread it the most, those who claim that they're on the front lines fighting fascism are the ones who resort most to its defining tactics:
Ana Navarro got her start pressuring the US Congress to fund contra death squads in Nicaragua: her father was a member.
Under Trump, she constantly worked against her own government to benefit other countries, and does so now.
By her own reasoning, DOJ should investigate her.
Whenever a war starts, and huge numbers of the DC political and media class start calling on the Government to investigate dissidents, and smearing journalists & activists who question US Govt policy as traitors and foreign agents, it's always a sign things have turned very dark.
Echoing @ananavarro and @MittRomney, @KeithOlbermann thinks Tulsi Gabbard and Tucker Carlson should be detained militarily based on war powers, and investigated to see if they are guilty of traitors or being Kremlin agents. Says they'll be lucky if they get a trial:

Missing some Tweet in this thread? You can try to

The corrupt ex-judge whose guilty verdict against Lula was nullified by Brazil's Supreme Court due to his misconduct and is now hilariously running for president, @SF_Moro, got a local judge to order Twitter to delete my tweet documenting his corruption.
Notably, the corrupt, cowardly judge did not sue me for defamation or anything else that would have allowed me discovery and the opportunity to present all the evidence of his corruption. So instead I'll be producing a video for today amassing the ample evidence proving this.
Seems like if you want to run for President (and he's about 30 points behind Lula and 20 behind Bolsonaro), it's kind of a bad start to run to a judge in your state to get them to force Twitter to remove a journalist's tweets about you. Kind of an authoritarian start.🤷♂️
I spoke today to @ryangrim, @robbysoave and @KimIversenShow on "Rising" about the Ukraine debate. We discussed Romney's repugnant "treason" accusations against Tulsi, diplomatic ways to end the war, and more. Discussions outside social media are vital:
As we discussed, @TulsiGabbard didn't say *anything* that the US Govt. itself didn't say. She didn't say there were bio *weapons* in Ukraine. She warned there were unsecured dangerous pathogens there: what the US and its media loyalists say. 👇
That Mitt Romney -- who avoided Vietnam and then had his 5 sons avoid military service -- can descend into the sewer to accuse Lt. Col. Gabbard of ***treason*** shows how sick and repressive US liberal discourse is now. She's been accused of being a Kremlin agent for years.
Mitt Romney skipped Vietnam and all other military service. Romney has five sons, none of whom served (he said in 2012: they served their country by "helping me get elected").
He's here to say Iraq War veteran and Army Lt. Col. @TulsiGabbard is a traitor, maybe a Russian agent.
I haven't seen treason accusations tossed around this casually and recklessly since 2002, when @DavidFrum was writing Bush's speeches. Beyond all the other reasons Romney's innuendo is so rancid, "treason" has a very narrow definition. This isn't close:
More arguments for why Hitler, whatever his faults, wasn't as bad as Putin.
I guess it's the logical conclusion to the neo-Nazi apologia we've been subjected to for weeks: celebrating actual neo-Nazi milita members (@IAPonomarenko), arming those militias, FB allowing praise.
This Facebook "exemption" from their normal rules about not allowing praise for Nazism is even more amazing than their announced decision to make an exception to their ban on advocating violence: as long as it's against Russians:
"Piling up the arguments, Putin appears far worse than Hitler"
From affection for Azov Battalion to the conversion of brother-in-arm @IAPonomarenko into a celebrity, I don't recall a whitewashing of Nazism this explicit or mainstream in my life.
Beyond the banal but sleazy corruption, Burisma's payments to Hunter Biden reveal who elites in Ukraine recognize wield the real power in their country. They didn't pay the son of a Ukrainian official, but Joe Biden's son. So of course CNN bans any guest from mentioning this:👇
I cannot recommend highly enough the 2015 Oliver Stone doc on the history of Ukraine and the 2014 regime change to a more pro-US/EU government. After Rumble uploaded the film following Google's removal from the producer's page, it's been viewed 500k times
As @SusanSarandon says, what is Google so afraid of with this film? Suddenly, after *6 years,* it decides the film contains footage "too graphic" to allow? Numerous films/reports on Ukraine aligned with the US/NATO view are just as graphic, yet remain:
