      Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

      How does Glenn Greenwald respond to the news that senior Trump officials plotted to assassinate Julian Assange? "The Czar is a good man, he just has bad advisors." I'd ask him to ponder Brad DeLong's adage, "The Cossacks work for the Czar."https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1442115339672772614 …

      Glenn GreenwaldVerified account @ggreenwald
      Great and very important report by three @YahooNews journalist on how CIA spent years plotting against WikiLeaks, including with plans to kidnap or even kill Assange. Mike Pompeo was the key driver. He has snowed many MAGA people: he's pure Deep State. https://news.yahoo.com/kidnapping-assassination-and-a-london-shoot-out-inside-the-ci-as-secret-war-plans-against-wiki-leaks-090057786.html?guccounter=1 …

      The strategy of trying to create a distance between Trump supporters and Pompeo presupposes that Trump supporters are really anti-war & pro-civil liberties & would be horrified by USA assassinating someone. I don't think that's true. Trump boasted about assassinations to cheers.

          I think Greenwald really thinks that about Trump supporters, btw, even if I agree with you that that's a false assumption. Greenwald sometimes tries strategies based on false assumptions.

          Yeah bro great point, you showed him. Everyone knows that the real Trump supporters were constantly horrified by the things Trump said and did.

          Replying to @HeerJeet @CarlNyberg312

          As I read the gist of Glenn's thread, he's focusing on U.S. Deep State institutional power and consistency across R and D administrations - and their growing effectiveness - in pushing both electeds and institutions to prosecute & punish both journalists and whistleblowers.

          That's not what he's doing. He's portraying Trump as someone who fought the deep state on this. That's been his narrative for years, even though there's no evidence to back it and Trump was the one that appointed Pompeo

          Some are, some aren't. But I have noticed that a part of the Trump support was anti-war & not overly fond of the Bush administration & Patriot Act. It cuts across political divides.

          How narrow minded.. How many people has Assange killed? There is a distinction that needs to be made.
