O que foi feito com @dilmabr em 2016 – liderado pela própria mídia que um parte da esquerda agora admira – foi grotesco: a galera mais corrupta no Brasil revertendo a eleição de 2014, fingindo-se ofendido por "pedaladas".

A grande mídia deveria fazer o que @FelipeNeto fez aqui.
Dilma cometeu erros como presidente. Mas o campo PSDB/Globo/LJ nunca aceitou a derrota do Aécio, e explorou as dificuldades econômicas para tirar Dilma e instalar *Michel Temer* em nome da “anti-corrupção”: uma piada.

Agora eles fingem se importar tanto com a "democracia".
As pessoas, claro, lembram do @TheInterceptBr pelo #VazaJato e comprovando a fraude de Sergio Moro e LJ. Mas na verdade a fundei em 2016 porque fiquei chocado com a completa união da grande mídia corporativa em apoio ao impeachment de Dilma, quando era óbvio o que realmente era.
A grande mídia corporativa não mudou. Eles queriam que a eleição de 2014 fosse revertida pelo mesmo motivo que apoiam Lula agora: eles servem aos interesses do establishment.

A parte da esquerda que passou 4 anos torcendo por Vera e Bonner e aquela turma vai ver isso em breve.

People still don't grasp how much Rumble's audience size has exploded. And the more repressive and censorship-mad Google's YouTube gets, the more free speech platforms will grow.

Beyond political voices, there's now a huge stream of Gen Z & culture creators migrating there.
As the WSJ last week reported, Rumble is now funding a network of live, one-hour, prime-time news and politics shows. The funding - for talent, staff, and studio - is on par with cable budgets. But it will be fully independent: with no speech constraints.

wsj.com/articles/rumbl…
The first of these new live Rumble shows to launch will be Russell Brand's tomorrow at noon ET. Russell built one of the largest YouTube audiences: in the millions, far more than CNN/MSNBC. That's why YouTube banned him. I'll be on the debut show. Watch:

Beyond how gross it is that WPost -- which couldn't stop praising itself for its bravery for publishing Snowden docs in 2014 -- now maligns their own source.

Almost every major media outlet -- NBC, NYT, HuffPost (it mattered back then), etc. -- fought to get these docs.
What's always struck me is the utter cowardice of establishment worms like this who accuse Snowden, Assange, and me of being Kremlin ops or whatever, but never have the courage to say that about the major mainstream outlets that published countless Top Secret docs from Snowden. Image
One of the establishment cowards who yesterday claimed Snowden is a Kremlin spy -- Foreign Policy's @BeijingPalmer -- also implied I'm a pedophile

I'd absolutely rather have Snowden's life - with his beautiful wife, 2 toddlers, bravery and a thriving career - than live as this: ImageImageImageImage

When Snowden left Hong Kong and landed in Moscow to transit to Latin America, Obama officials like @brhodes did everything possible to prevent him from leaving, to trap him in Russia.

Rhodes boasted of it in his book.

Ever since, they've use this to imply he's a Russian agent.
You can read Ben Rhodes in his own words, bragging in his book about he forced the Cubans to withdraw the guarantee of safe passage they had given Snowden to allow him to leave Russia, as he was desperately trying to do.

greenwald.substack.com/p/ben-rhodes-b…
Think about it: if Obama officials believed Snowden had possession of an extremely sensitive archive of top secret documents - as they insist but Snowden denies - why would they *want to trap him in Russia*?

Because they knew it'd be easy to convince idiots he was a Kremlin spy.

Hillary Clinton, earlier this month, on the likely election of Italy's first female Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni (who now is, in fact, the all-but-confirmed next Prime Minister of Italy):

theatlantic.com/international/… Image
Hillary went on to note she has concerns about Meloni's ideology, but this is the moronic logical conclusion of viewing the world through the prism of identity politics.

It was a mainstream, pervasive claim that opposition to Hillary in the 2016 Dem primary was misogynistic.
By the way, Sarah Huckabee Sanders is likely to become the first-ever female Governor of Arkansas, the state where Hillary first became nationally known as the First Lady wielding a rather bizarre and notably sporadic rendition of a Southern accent. ✊ Image

Italy is on the verge of an election that will result in its first-ever female Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni.

One of Europe's most authoritarian politicians, the unelected EU Commission President @vonderleyen, is threatening to sanction Italy if its citizens vote for her party.
This is why so many validly despise the EU, why so many supported Brexit. There are few things more arrogant, condescending, and authoritarian than Brussels bureaucrats.

Imagine being an Italian and being commanded by someone like Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen on how to vote.👇 Image
Just as in the US, EU neoliberals who prattle on about "democracy" and who glorify themselves as defenders of "democratic values" mean only one thing by "democracy": total submission to their will.

Ideas they dislike are censored. Voters who defy their orders are punished. Image

It was almost 1 1/2 years ago to this day when the NYT blared in its headlines that @MattGaetz was under investigation for child sex trafficking, and liberals - who claim to be skeptical of prosecutors and in favor of due process - spent 18 months calling him a pedophile. Now:
For the crime of writing that Gaetz deserves due process and it's dangerous, toxic and reckless to assume someone's guilt based on prosecutors' leaks, I was also called a pedophile (only pedophiles would urge caution and skepticism regarding DOJ leaks):

greenwald.substack.com/p/due-process-…
There are few things more dangerous than placing blind faith in DOJ claims. Even worse is assuming guilt from leaks.

The investigative exposé we did in Brazil that freed Lula and enabled him to run for President was partially based on exactly this abuse:
