Congrats to NBC on their "EXCLUSIVE" that GOP vigilantes challenged nearly 100,000 voters before the Georgia 2022 Senate race! That’s nearly a year AFTER we gave Maddow the story—which, according to her producer, she spiked because "It’s too Greg Palast." Yes, it’s VERY Palast.
God bless real live reporter @BrianRoss for taking it and running it BEFORE the election!
And a shout-out to @BlackVotersMtr, @Georgia_NAACP and the other rights groups who got out our documentary about the scam, Vigilante: Georgia’s Vote Suppression Hitman, BEFORE the election, to warn voters and save their rights. gregpalast.com/vigilante-post…
Want a copy of the film that Atlanta radio station WRFG said saved the election?

Putin has this fever dream of history. #Ukraine has never, ever in history been a part of Russia, but he wants to recreate this mythical single nation and become Vlad the Great. gregpalast.com/putin-invasion…
Putin doesn't blame NATO, he blames the Bolsheviks, because they always recognized the independent nation of Ukraine. But it's not just about creating a larger Russian-Slavic empire — one that has never existed.
Putin's second reason for invading Ukraine is to restore the supremacy of the Muscovite Russian Orthodox Church. You have to understand, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church has split away.

Is #GeorgeSantos the "Manchurian Candidate" for Brazil’s #JairBolsonaro? Forget Santos’ monstrous lies. Follow the money.

➡️ Full story: gregpalast.com/is-santos-the-…

➡️ Full @Thom_Hartmann interview:
#GeorgeSantos, who couldn’t pay his $1,800 apartment rent and whose last verified job was in a call center, somehow lent his campaign over $700,000?!?

gregpalast.com/is-santos-the-…
Supposedly, Santos started a consulting business to help Brazilian companies work with US firms. But who would pay big fees to a consultant who fled Brazil at age 19 after a felony fraud conviction?

The 800-page gorilla of a report from the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attack on the Capitol seems strangely silent on a few matters that, apparently, were a bit too uncomfortable for them to take on... gregpalast.com/the-secret-his… #January6thReport
Yes, the #January6thCommittee did acknowledge our report, filmed by @ZDRoberts, that showed that BEFORE the #January6th storming of the Capitol, riot instigator and Trump ‘bro #AliAlexander declared: “We’ll light the whole sh*t on fire!” gregpalast.com/the-secret-his…
What the #January6thCommittee left out: We discovered that #AliAlexander was brought to Georgia by the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the Georgia Republican Party for their get-out-the-vote drive for the Senate runoff races gregpalast.com/why-did-the-ge…

The Department of Justice has finally taken on True the Vote, the right-wing group behind the wrongful challenge of hundreds of thousands of legal Georgia voters.

True the Vote's challenges were the subject of our film Vigilante. Stream it for FREE: VigilanteMovie.com
I know what you’re thinking: Why did Justice sue two weeks AFTER the #GeorgiaRunoff election?

Luckily, the film and our related reports got out in Georgia before the election. gregpalast.com/dept-of-justic…
We held special voter impact showings from Coffee County to Gwinnett to Valdosta. Crucially, we confronted and exposed True the Vote’s agents, every one a Republican official, scaring them away from further challenges.

A "record turnout" in Georgia? Not quite. A one-million-vote nose-dive in turnout for the Runoff was well-concealed by GOP Gov. Brian Kemp to cover up the effects of “Jim Crow 2.O” at the launch his presidential campaign. gregpalast.com/record-turnout…
From the New York Times to the Wall Street Journal, math-challenged reporters have repeated the completely upside-down fable of a “record turnout” in the Georgia Runoff. But the official count shows the turnout fell by a breathtaking one-million votes. gregpalast.com/record-turnout…
Facts matter. The faux “record turnout” is used by Republican pols to discredit the grossly partisan and racially poisonous effects of #SB202, the law signed last year by Georgia’s Gov. Brian Kemp that the NAACP dubs “Jim Crow 2.0.” gregpalast.com/mail-in-ballot…

The Wall Street Journal has just endorsed Governor #BrianKemp for president. And the New York Times has also virtually endorsed Kemp as the proper nominee for the Republican Party. This is the guy who created and signed #SB202, or as the NAACP calls it, Jim Crow 2.0!
Today, on the runoff ballot, it's not between Warnock and #HerschelWalker. The real race is between Senator Reverend #RaphaelWarnock and Jim Crow. gregpalast.com/mail-in-ballot…
And that's Governor #BrianKemp, the star of our film, Vigilante: #Georgia's Vote Suppression Hitman — narrated by @rosariodawson. gregpalast.com/vigilante-free…
