it is interesting that some tech companies are experts on so many things and the 'fact checkers' they use are giving their opinions.

From memory? Not sure but I remember when he first wrote about BLM and Antifa he received threats. He also received threats from some groups on the right.........but I think that’s his deal. He pisses off everybody by telling it like it is.....

If you google search, he’s lately on the wrong side of the Brazilian government.

I guess he will have to move again

Pretty sure he moved there after getting entangled with the Snowden thing...that's what drove him out of the US.

I'll look it up and report back...lol

Welp, I was dead wrong:

Quote:
Greenwald lives in Rio de Janeiro, the hometown of his husband, David Miranda, now a Congressman with the left-wing PSOL party.[169][170][171] Greenwald said in 2011 that his residence in Brazil was a result of the Defense of Marriage Act, an American law barring federal recognition of same-sex marriages that was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court two years later. The law had prevented his partner from receiving a visa to reside with him in the United States.[172]

IMO, Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, and Andrew Sullivan are all doing outstanding work these days talking about the corruption of the mainstream media and how the left has lost its way.
