How the Sad, Eternal Impotent Torchbearer of the Pro-Trump Left wrote his incredible screenplay about the recent coup that installed Kamala Harris as the Deep State's new commander
Good article, but I think it's more accurate to say that Greenwald and the Far Right are both "useful idiots" of Vladimir Putin than to say Greenwald is a "useful idiot" of the Far Right.
Greenwald rose to prominence as an extremely harsh critic of the Bush/Cheney regime, after previously having endorsed the Iraq invasion on the inside jacket of the book cover you can see in my profile pic. It's so very interesting. I don't necessarily think he's as pro-Trump or at least as unwilling to criticize Trump as you do, Ken, but perhaps that's because when Trump was in office there was plenty of it to go around in the mainstream/legacy media and GG has always been more of a media critic than a dedicated journalist. I honestly think he'd agree with my assessment. And as I noted the last time, I was literally banned by him, with a personal message, for "100 years" from his former Substack. So I'm not some kind of GG ass kisser nor do I find him infallible.
To the point of his resignation from The Intercept (an outlet he was a driving factor in founding as I'm obviously sure you know), my takeaway was that it came down to the Hunter Biden laptop story and the crazy interrelations between the so-called Intelligence Community (IC) and DNC party apparatus. He did turn out to be right.
If you are unhappy or uncomfortable with his cozying up to Tucker, I can empathize, but TC has been one of the few willing right wing fascists to actually criticize the warmongers in DC (even if for personally motivated and cynical reasons, which I will not pretend to arbitrate one way or another) on a major warmongering nooooze channel like Fox. For which I believe he ultimately lost his job. The crap about sexual harassment or "creating a hostile work environment" for females is thin gruel considering he never actually met in-person the woman who made the accusation. Seems all too convenient given his criticisms of the US-Ukraine proxy war on Russia that immediately preceded his firing. He was the most viewed program on Rupert Murdoch's Faux Snooze prior and it harkens back to Phil Donanue, even if Phil is actually a man of real and documented conscience, comparatively speaking.
Looking forward to the next installment. Personally I wish you'd extend it to 5 or 6 articles because there is ample information to mine. I will still probably never understand the motivations for skipping that story I mentioned before, which was predicated on Saudi Arabia and other Gulf monarchy support for the anti-Assad terror squads in Syria (as exposed by a Snowden leak) but who knows. I think each of these Greenwald articles deserve a much deeper dive and less guilt by association. Or at least pointing out how stupid and greedy someone has to be to align with Alex Fuckin' Jones - a person I am convinced is controlled opposition and whose output abides by the stopped clock principle. Like why in the hell would a "serious" person hitch his trailer to THAT wagon considering all the baggage unless out of pure greed?

The US-Ukraine proxy war on Russia?
LOL!
I didn't realize Lee Fang had become that much of a fucking nutbar as to totally stick his head up Glennwald's ass.
