David Simon (former journalist and the guy behind Homicide and The Wire) is currently roasting the gently caress out of Glenn Greenwald on twitter. It's refreshing because he's calling Glenn's dumb bullshit and whataboutism's for what it is. https://twitter.com/AoDespair/status/837314435278639104

I think Scotland's wanted the nukes out for quite awhile now. Rebasing them would be a bitch for the British (doable though) but I very much doubt Scotland would try to keep the subs.

Hot Karl Marx posted:I know some of you hate Greenwald and he can be insufferable most of the time but he has a purpose and he's pretty consistent in his views. No, he hasn't. Greenwald is the first to get super histrionic about U.S. IC and military capabilities without a hint of context. But as soon as any smoke circles start appearing that say maybe, just maybe, the FSB was loving around in the U.S. Election, he's suddenly the cautious journalist telling everyone that there's no proof and that anyone asking the administration to be accountable is being delusional. David Simon called him out for his stupid schtick yesterday. He's the first person to scream that the NSA and the U.S. Intelligence community have dark motives upon first discovery of the PRISM program without any evidence of it's actual use as well as fabricating outright falsehoods, like his original claim that all U.S. Manufactured network devices had backdoors installed in them by the NSA. He later retracted that one, after clarifying he meant that the NSA was intercepting networking hardware before it was delivered and installing the backdoor themselves, but the damage was done. Regardless, he's a histrionic tool and his whole "Well everyone needs to stop being delusional. It's just democrats being sore losers, there's no proof" routine is loving retarded coming from him.

Hot Karl Marx posted:It's almost like he hasn't forgiven the media for the way they walked right into Iraq? Dude has different views than a lot of mainstream reporters, some of who have done A LOT more damage than he has While I agree, it was lovely that so many outlets were basically walking hand in hand into Iraq with W., that doesn't excuse Greenwald's current crop of bullshit.

I disagree (and I contend that I'm not going to convince you necessarily). I've never really liked Greenwald but up until recently, I could respect him in that he was consistent with his views. Now, not so much. Again, he's the first to scream fire at the mere possibility of smoke from U.S. intelligence or military activities, no matter how benign or common they are. Though when the shoes on someone else's foot and things like the Steele Dossier, Flynn resigning due to his phone calls, and Manafort, page, etc come out (and I contend don't necessarily prove anything but certainly do show there is something afoot), he suddenly finds journalistic composure and tells everyone else to cool it? Nah. Casimir Radon posted:Greenwald is an attention seeking oval office, end of story.

Best Friends posted:I remember long, long ago, when it looked like Rex Tillerson wasn't going to be confirmed based on key GOP senator outrage. He got confirmed no problem. I'll believe that there will be actual GOP votes against this monstrosity when it actually happens. I think the difference here is that while Tillerson's appointment wouldn't likely have any direct or immediate impacts on the average American's day to day life (so far as that person could tell), loving around with the ACA and Medicare most definitely will. This poo poo is a poison pill for the senate.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:The CIA has a long history of illegally spying on Americans domestically. You can take their assurances that they've cut it out at face value, but I don't think it's unreasonable to be concerned about them expanding their capabilities. I know this is true (and a major reason why FISA warrants are now a thing), but in this case, it's still dumb when people say they are doing it (based on Wikileaks which is just lol given their recent history), again, without evidence to back it up. While I get and understand that people are anxious about the CIA having those capabilities, I think the solution is more congressional oversight not, "GET RID OF THE CIA/NSA AND THOSE CAPABILITIES, THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WITH THEM!"

DoktorLoken posted:http://www.businessinsider.com/nude-photo-marine-corps-pentagon-scandal-2017-3 An even shitier part of all this, is that there are supposedly 30,000 people trading this poo poo around, and it's still ongoing. You've even got some of them sending death threats to reporters who are covering the story. Also, remember a few days ago when we were discussing how Martin Dempsey looked like Sessions but he was redeemable for not being a piece of poo poo and a seemingly decent guy, well funny thing came out today... Army brass, led by future Joint Chiefs head Martin Dempsey, gave amorous general a pass quote:The Army inspector general was unsparing: The two-star general had an inappropriate relationship with a woman and lied to investigators about it, made his staff buy sexy clothing for her, subjected his underlings to racist and sexist emails and allowed himself to be photographed with another woman licking the medals on his formal dress uniform.
