funny that this is basically exactly what greenwald is arguing (and has been for months) yet nobody's calling remnick a russian patsy

Yup, and Remnick haaaaaaates Russia. Like thinks we should turn Ukraine into a hot war levels of hate. He's giving good advice here to see how this all shakes out, rather than relying on the Abramson/Garland/Taylor crew.

it's kind of insane that the NYT can release a breaking story showing Don Jr, Kushner, and Manafort secretly meeting with Russian agents, that the story is corroborated by five separate sources, that Don Jr has admitted that the meeting happened, that journos have dug up info on Goldstone's social media and confirmed it through his posts

That after all of the above, Glenn Greenwald (who deliberately nuked a source for the crime of sending Greenwald proof that Russian interference happened) trudges onto Twitter to claim that people are just being hysterical about Russia

glenn greenwald is almost certainly a russian sleeper agent being blackmailed for his weird pron collection which russian hackers have ransomwar3zed

The US should capture Putin and force him to watch multiple Pavel Petel vidoes until confesses his hacking plan.

Yes, he sent scans of the original documents to a CIA source, along with where he suspected she worked

I'm curious why you keep linking Abramsom with mensch twitter? I've been following abramson for a bit now and he's not spouting off wild conspiracies, and he generally backs his stuff up with sources and, if not actual evidence, strongly circumstantial stuff

lmao so much for heroic media being the good guys

quote:

The Intercept had contacted the NSA on May 30 and sent copies of the documents to the agency, in order to confirm their veracity. The NSA notified the FBI about the situation on June 1. The FBI realized the documents had been printed out because the PDF copies sent by The Intercept "appeared to be folded and/or creased, suggesting they had been printed and hand-carried out of a secured space".

Next, the NSA did an internal audit, confirming that Winner was one of six workers who had accessed the particular documents on its classified system, but only Winner’s computer had been in contact with The Intercept using a personal email account. On June 3, the FBI obtained a warrant to search Winner's electronic devices, and she was arrested.

well, I didn't mention mensch there who really is on her own plane of existence, but these people are all peas in the same pod, along with Schindler and a few others who have no actual sources or expertise and just connect dots in their mind so they can build their follower list and turn it into cash. most of the time they're spouting nonsense that gets cleared up when reporters add the necessary context to the story.

also, you should probably stop saying that greenwald burned his source, since he didn't work on that story.

Okay, fair enough, though I haven't seen anything for Abramson in particular where he overreached in his analysis (yet, anyway)

yeah it's a total coincidence that happened when reality winner was upset with the intercept coverage and sent in information directly contradicting greenwald

like here's Abramson's thread from today where he rounds up what we've learned and puts it in a bit of context

I don't really see anything egregious in there? Am I missing something?
