  1. I think Kasparian's accusation against Aaron Mate, that he denies children were killed in gas attacks and other war crimes, is even worse than the now-cliched accusation of being with the Russians, etc. Especially because AARON is the one who wants to find out who committed these heinous acts.

  2. We owe Glenn a lot. Thank you, Glenn.

  3. Glenn, thank you for interviewing a truly principled man. I am so impressed.

  4. So the bottom line is, anyone who expressed skepticism of the vaccine must now demonstrate their loyalty by getting vaccinated. It's not about their need for a medical procedure.

  5. My biggest surprise has been how they've been able to petrify people with COVID. Newsflash: Man is mortal.

  6. Not to mention the demand to prove over and over and over that they are not fascist or racist, no matter WHO they are. Clearly a loyalty oath, a demand for ritualistic self-flagellation. Glenn helped get Lula Da Silva out of prison, fights for Assange, and needs bodyguards. But this kid thinks he is better than Glenn.

  7. Interesting that the Indian press covered extensively the Serb opposition to an (Anglo-Australian) Rio Tinto lithium mine on their territory, and Djokovic agreed with the demonstrators, including those who broke the law by blocking highways.

  8. The worst is that they bombed cities and region with anti-Milosevic governments in place. And the bombs contained substantial amounts of Depleted Uranium (DU). Americans always get to define "human." That's what money can buy.

  9. What saddens me is how rare it is for anyone to be as fair to Glenn as he is to everyone. Due process and presumption of innocence cannot be allowed to deteriorate further.

  10. I thought the evidence was sufficient to convict Rittenhouse with respect to recklessly endangering Richard McGinnis (jury instructions, pp 6 - 10, especially 8 - 9). Other than that, I expected acquittal. But as a matter of PRINCIPLE, I believe minors should not be tried as adults. Love Glenn's ending. Thank you, Glenn.

  11.  @docpittillo  Yes, Glenn is tremendously well-educated and hard working, and older. And has an unusual devotion to principles and care in sharing only actual facts. Of course he's going to be better. Still, good on Steven. Glenn welcomes him and expresses appreciation. Perfect.

  12.  @jeeperspeepers8323  An "invasion" is what Russia did to Ukraine, the US did to Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, etc. Maybe expand your vocabulary?

  13.  @zacharyrivera566  Exactly. He especially should not have ghosted Dore and invited Cenk's nephew to replace him -- who proceeded to use sexist language on the program.

  14. Those who did worse are the first to condemn. That is as ordinary and as banal as the horror of war itself.
    15
  15. I think that government leveraging private monopoly power to censor speech based on content, or to impose prior restraints, should be considered a government/state action prohibited by the First Amendment (absent a compelling government interest to justify it).

  16. For people who understand French, see Benjamin Bayard. He says that European laws and American laws concerning personal privacy and data ownership are in direct conflict and irreconcilable. See, for example, Bayard on Thinkerview. Staggering.

  17. Alexander Cockburn wrote for The American Conservative, whenever he was sure his anti-war position could be furthered by joining forces with them. Because war is that much of a horror and it must be stopped.

  18. Don't imagine his ethnicity has nothing to do with it. The elephant in the room.

  19. Glenn, you look GREAT. Did you finally take a well-deserved vacation? Hope so!!

  20. ​ @slee2819  Look, they're all terrible. Face the truth. Don't be scared.

  21. Ana gained a lot by using both tactics. Think about all the relationships she obliterated.

  22.  @jimpollard113  The jury agreed. It was, however, within the law to convict, and a different jury might have thought otherwise. The facts were totally misrepresented by MSM, and Rittenhouse, a minor facing adult charges (which I do not agree with doing to any kid), was smeared. And now, the law with respect to self-defense is being misrepresented. I see nothing good here. Less bad than a conviction for any intentional homicide, which had zero support in the evidence. No one standing up to question the practice of trying juveniles as adults in the first place. Rittenhouse, a lost and traumatized kid, being lionized(!!!) And still being smeared, for that matter. MSM doubles down on smearing him. Nope, nothing good.

  24.  @chazbennett8676  I meant the concerted one, with 70,000 troops allegedly ready to attack, OBVIOUSLY. Everyone knows about the 8 years of attrition.

  25. We (in the US) live in a society with a history of horrific eugenics movements. The thought that very young adults who are LGBTQ+, nevermind children, are undergoing treatments that could prevent them from having the opportunity to be birth parents one day, *if* they so choose, is starting to sound REALLY sinister to me. We can't TALK about this? Oh brother.

  26.  @hb-youtube  Great point. Bully-cry in a nutshell. It's sinister.

  27. BORING GUY, this "Nicholas." How old is he? Has he had freshman rhetoric yet?

  28. Thank you so much, Glenn. Yes, complaining about mean tweets is obscene. No one would believe it if it weren't in our faces every day.

  29. Moral clarity that is rare. Thank you.

  30.  @goingconcern  Did you read the instruction? McGinnis was an unarmed bystander, and a reporter and video producer for an independent CONSERVATIVE publication. He was in the line of fire. (Oops. So much for facts, you too, huh?) As a matter of law, self-defense cannot be carried out recklessly, to endanger bystanders. That's why the instruction was included.

  31. The first post knows Glenn is a lawyer.

  32. Maybe he's just not that smart?

  33. One employer is one thing, egregious as it was in this case. But EVERYONE was in on it. All the mass social media platforms CENSORED it.

  34. I had never seen Drag Queen Story Hour, and had heard about it once, thinking it had happened only once. So I had to check out some performances online. The few I saw for very young children were no racier than having a clown read to kids. If something else is going on somewhere else, that's different.

  35. I thought becoming the best tennis player is something people have to work hard for, not something Australia hands out. So, it's the sports betting industry that produced him? I believe it. /s

  36.  @e_8074  Agreed. I do see the point that this guy is pretty bad, though. But Glenn warned us, and kept his word.

  37. In a society with a horrifying history of eugenics, someone thinks we shouldn't question whether a prepubescent child, or any minor, ought to be offered sexual reassignment, which usually renders them unable to have children. I think everyone should have the same opportunity to become a birth parent, trans or not. I believe in preserving reproductive rights. Deciding whether or not to have birth children is something adults have the right to do. Any treatment that could take this freedom away from a child could only be a last resort, after everything else has been tried, and has clearly failed. Of course I've been denounced for this view.

  38. And they have the nerve to point the finger at Soviets, who bore 80% of the brunt of defeating Hitler. They had 10,000 times 9/11 before going berserk.

  39. When he commiserated with Elon Musk about being "tricked" into signing permission for his first-born to transition, that really took the wokester cake. Hey, I get it. Second opinions are expensive.

  40. We need much higher standards across the board. No excuses.

  43. Trump-style politics won. They all sound like him, unhinged.

  44. NLG took out NOTEPADS and wrote down what he was doing! 😂😂😂😂 That's called the Legal Observer program, and it is not "unacceptable."

  45. The only person of real stature involved with that outfit is Nadine Strossen. I can't picture Glenn joining Bari Weiss. Can you?

  46. Take a close look at Ana's DM. She also took quite a swipe at Jimmy's wife. Wow. That's a feminist all right.

  47. To refuse a vaccination you don't need is a PRIVILEGE? I'm leaving the Five Eyes by 2024, thanks for confirming what I already knew.

  48. So well put.

  49.  @MuantanamoMobile  A black kid in Rittenhouse's position could never survive a night like that one. The police praised these militia and thanked them. (More adults doing the wrong thing. Have they been investigated for encouraging vigilantism?) They would have mowed down a black youth.

  50. He has needed top-flight bodyguards for years.
