      Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

      Trump asked the CIA if they could kill Assange but Glenn has to be Glenn.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1470032530409725966 …

      Jeet Heer added,

      Glenn GreenwaldVerified account @ggreenwald
      It is US liberalism that favors censorship through a union of state and corporate power. It is US liberalism whose networks constantly lie to defend the state. It is US liberalism which wants Assange imprisoned for the crime of journalism. That's who the authoritarian menace is.

      Glenn Greenwald thinks there is significant anti-war and anti-imperialist sentiment on the right waiting to be tapped. I think that's an illusion (at least on the organized right). We argued about it here.https://jeetheer.substack.com/p/podcast-greenwald-strikes-back?r=bh54&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email …

          Yeah, but Trump's out and Biden's carrying on regarding Assange, or has something changed?

          The American right is committed to unilateral empire, unencumbered by any pesky ties to international institutions or law. There is not a single prominent figure on the right calling for cuts in military spending, an end to arms sales, US base closures, an end to drone wars, etc.

          If there is antiwar sentiment on the right, fine. To the extent that it’s real, then let them do their antiwar thing when the time comes, and we can accept the assist. But that’s no reason to spend a single minute boosting odious right wing messages in the name of “reaching out”.

          And I doubt there is any significant anti-imperialist faction on the right. Imperialism is just capitalism practiced abroad, with the aid of the imperial state’s violent tools for capital accumulation and market domination.

          Nonsense. Trump was allegedly anti-war despite saying and doing multiple things to the contrary.

          I would expect the extreme right to test military loyalty by pushing anti war.

          And Glenn won the argument.
