@ggreenwald 4/4 of well documented wrongdoings come home to roost. Each of these situations is different in each country and to paint them all w the same brush is misleading and incorrect. Trump is not Le Pen and the grievances and agst them vary widely. Keep up the good work
@ggreenwald 3/4 results in all kinds of professionals losing their ability to practice their profession. She’s a public servant, embezzled public funds (very clearly and repeatedly after many warnings) and therefore cannot run for office. It’s not a political hit, just the result
@ggreenwald 2/4 French funds meant to enable her party to function in the EU parliament, and basically gave it to her friends and colleagues. In this country if an accountant steals $ he can’t be an accountant anymore, and knowing committal of fraud results in all
@ggreenwald Hi Glenn, I’m a big fan, locals member etc. I have to tell you I think you’re wrong on categorizing the recent conviction of Le Pen here in France, where I live, as political. It’s been going on for over 11 years and she was found guilty for taking 4 M€ of public
@olliestallwood hi Ollie I’m trying to locate Teddy Held of Troop for a French documentary for Canal+. It was a great interview article that you did w him, could you help me to get in touch with him? many thanks
It's pretty sad that everyone is distracted with the Will Smith SLAP but do we know that @samuelljackson won his first Oscar last night was presented by Denzel Washington and the Oscar’s DID NOT AIR IT!!!

Hi @olliestallwood I'd like to speak to you about an article you wrote for @highsnobiety about #Troop founder Teddy Held. For a French documentary, please get in touch, thanks, Joseph
De Blasio just called this video "absolutely unacceptable" and said the officer should lose his gun and badge today. Can confirm an Internal Affairs officer called me this morning, which is first time that's ever happened
Mark Zuckerberg created a website to rank his female classmates by their appearance and it ended up destroying democracy, in case you're wondering about the consequences of toxic masculinity
It took @realDonaldTrump one day to issue an #ExecutiveOrder because he was upset Twitter called him out on his lies.
It took him 3 months to order PPE to help fight #coronavirus.
The Minneapolis debate reminds me of Israel/Palestine discourse. No matter how much repression & brutality Palestinians suffer, nothing they do is legitimate except impotent words: no boycotts, no return violence: all "terrorism."
The MN violence is, if anything, way overdue.
When civility leads to death, revolting is the only logical reaction.
The cries for peace will rain down, and when they do, they will land on deaf ears, because your violence has brought this resistance.
We have the right to fight back!
Rest in Power George Floyd
Here's my leg today. This is from a non-lethal projectile, fired by Minneapolis police while I covered protests of #GeorgeFloyd last night. Stay safe folks
