Did he really do that?! I havent seen it yet.

Just checked his TL. Seems odd, because he also says he doesnt mind the leaks. I think the point he is making is Snowdon was treated worse

As far as I'm concerned, Snowden damaged our National security and people's lives. The leaker(s) today are doing the opposite. &

It is. Just pointing out that I think we are misinterpreting his tweet, not speaking to the validity of his argument.

Actually its consistent with this narrative: that agencies like CIA&FBI have motives that we can't always discern. Why are they leaking now?

Which would be a sensible excuse if we had any idea who leaked the DNC info vs who leaked the Trump admin info.

As it is, the evidence pointing to DNC hacks being from the Russians means that GG thinks the Russians have... what, more honest goals?

That's a good point. Just wanted to provide how Greenwald's view isn't really changing but is pretty consistent.

I can see why you'd think that, but these views do feel different—plus I have to wonder what Greenwald would say re leaks if HRC were POTUS

Which I concede isn't a particularly valuable use of anyone's time.

Again solid points. But methinks it's worth considering if we want 45 impeached via leaking or other means.What will mean for future admins?

Very true! I think the investigations may uncover why people have leaked—perhaps extraordinary circs, perhaps prelude to actual "deep state"

Wait, is he saying that? I'm blocked (proudly.)

Incredible.

He clearly supports the leaks as stated in 2nd tweet. He's pointing out liberal hypocrisy when Obama DOJ was prosecuting whistleblowers.
