      1. Last week @EoinHiggins_ & I talked about @ggreenwald, which provoked this tweet. I took it as a challenge & sat down with Greenwald to "say this to [his] face."pic.twitter.com/YPtLy4z3S3

      2. In the even, Greenwald and I had a spirited discussion that took up the history of "America First" (from Charles Lindbergh to the Birch Society to Pat Buchanan to Trump) as well as anti-immigrant nativism (from Henry Adams to Tucker Carlson).

      3. If I had to find a theme in our conversation, I'd say Greenwald really wants to bend over backwards to give Trump & Carlson every benefit of the doubt as putative advocates of anti-interventionism & pro-worker policies. I see no reason to accept their rhetoric at face value

          4. In any case, I'd encourage people to listen to our conversation, it's a spirited but civil disagreement on fundamental issues. It ends with the revelation that we've kept Oliver Stone waiting.https://jeetheer.substack.com/p/podcast-greenwald-strikes-back?r=bh54&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email …

          I'd like to know why GG spends more time and energy trying to keep Nazis out of prison instead of advocating for the rights of the millions already locked up

          He does this constantly. Look at how he takes everything Hawley says completely sincerely while doubting anyone liberal/progressive.

          Even if Greenwald could argue it was legitimate to give Trump and Carlson the benefit of the doubt on their pro-worker or anti-imperialist rhetoric in 2016, doing so after their four years in power is insane and signals you ally with them for other reasonshttps://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/1468956333089067017?s=20 …

          We've had a Trump Secretary of Labor, and it was the guy who got Epstein off the hook But seriously Trump's NLRB did everything it could to weaken labor

          What if you were being paid to advocate for them, though?

          "liberals love David Frum" He makes so many claims like this that are I think very wrong but also impossible to measure. They just sound right to him.
