    Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

    The assumption here is that climate change isn't an important part of foreign policy -- but it is, and will become increasingly important.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1317535204169420801 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Glenn GreenwaldVerified account @ggreenwald
    There are a couple exceptions — Dems oppose Trump’s withdrawal from the Iran Deal and reimposition of Cuban embargo and sanctions. Those are not insignificant. But by and large the Dem critique on foreign policy has been trivial or a complaint about “weakness."

        Wouldn't also withdrawing from the WHO count as a foreign policy blunder?

        Dems oversaw a massive expansion in oil and gas production during the Obama years, and well they've gotten quieter about the bragging, they definitely haven't recanted that.

        It's unclear to me how seriously the Democratic establishment is going to take climate change when they actually get the power to do so

        They're not wrong that Dems bear partial blame.

        This reminds me of when Douthat said our COVID response had been pretty good except for the deaths

        His previous tweet, abt Murphy, is a gross mischaracterization. GG doesn't even deserve a benefit of the doubt at this point. He's a bad-faith actor, & should be described, referred to, addressed, & treated as such. You're engaging w him as tho he's a good-faith actor. He's not.

        Worth reading Stan Robinson’s brand new Ministry of the Future on this.

        Yes! And it's worth reading the papers he references (Delton Chen, James Hansen).
