    Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

    The 1/6 rioters deserve all the legal protection given to any accused criminal, nothing less & nothing more. It's certainly within the rights, arguably even the duties, of Congress to investigate an attack on the Capitol Building.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1450594478633496593 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Glenn GreenwaldVerified account @ggreenwald
    Basically the only thing the 1/6 Committee will accomplish is parade around a bunch of the impoverished, already-broken Capitol rioters -- people who can't afford lawyers and have already been cowed into submission -- to satiate the sadistic liberal mob's thirst for retribution.

        It's time to stop treating GG as if his agenda isn't entirely about running interference for fascists and nothing more. (At least in the US...because he hates the US. He's probably better in Brazil, which he doesn't hate.)

        I sometimes forget just how far down the rabbit hole Greenwald has gone. The "mob", you see, isn't the people who stormed Congress looking for Pence and Pelosi so they could lynch them, it's the people who want to prosecute those people. Will nobody think of the real victims?

        They need to investigate all elected and unelected participants. It is the duty of Congress to uphold the Constitution. I'm personally interested in watching enforcement of Article 3 regarding the actions of reps who voted to support the Insurrectionists on Jan 6.

        So, Greenwald and Putin are rhetorically on the same page about the Jan 6th rioters. Good to know.
