Do you think you can send a few dollars our way with no strings attached via https://t.co/xuqKKIOVKY ?

You said Covid was beaten last July 4 when 600K had died. We're about to hit 1 million dead. Great job.

I don’t want to jinx this but March 13 is allegedly daylight savings so we reportedly get another hour of light. Fingers crossed.

Grayzone was always trash but now it's devolved into Sesame Street for LaRouchies. Anyone taking its garbage seriously has a few screws loose.

Remember when Greenwald did embarrassing PR for JD Vance and then shortly thereafter took a six figure contract with Thiel-backed Rumble? Consider that the next time GG provides "principled" critique of Lula

@TimothyS @DCBabylon1 went to a book tour stop of his yrs ago in san fran. i'm not a fan. during talk, he said next batch of snowden docs were unlike anything previously seen and would completely change the narrative around surveillance. never happened.

"Why Did Omidyar Shut Down The Intercept’s Snowden Archive?" My @DCBabylon1 article from 2019 documented close ties between TI's owner, the counterinsurgency unit of USAID, and a SOCOM contractor called Frontier Design. Greenwald & Co. refused comment. https://t.co/VAA17TZYAG

[Mary B (TeslaSpotlight) @MaryBteslaspot]

What happened to the archive? No one knows. I still think Omidyar's people could be mining it, as I speculated once in @DCBabylon1. Or they could have chucked it to maintain their expanding ties to the national security state. Maybe both.

Now that it's conventional wisdom that Glenn Greenwald has morphed into a Fox News nut, I'd like to note that @DCBabylon1 was ahead of most everyone on this topic. Here's first part of a multi-week series on him (plus Taibbi and Tracey) we ran last May. https://t.co/f7fRG8aMUx

@KenSilverstein1 I haven’t seen this big a collection of assholes since the Provincetown Belching Anus Chorus did their rendition of the 1812 Overture on Labor Day
