Glenn Greenwald falsely states the Mueller report was released

Pro-Russia Tucker Carlson contributor Glenn Greenwald wrote an article titled "Watch: a Contentious, Constructive Debate on the Media and Political Humiliation from the Mueller Report".

"Watch: a Contentious, Constructive Debate on the Media and Political Humiliation from the Mueller Report"

That's false. He's referring to the Barr Letter.

Greenwald also doubted Russia hacked the DNC but his tweets from 2016 have ask been erased.

Matt Taibbi on why he trusts the Barr letter

The internet still can't believe Taibbi actually used this logic:

People, the radical right wing is our biggest threat. But let us never underestimate the danger posed by the Greenwald Left (Greenwald, Sirota, Taibbi, etc).

GOP attempts to hide Mueller report will make headlines for months (That's good for Democrats)

If you thought the Mueller report would boost Trump and Republicans in the long run, you were being pessimistic for no reason.
A huge percentage of voters want the Mueller report released in its entirety, according to all polls on the topic.
So every time we see a headline such as today's "Mueller blocks Democrats' attempt to see full Mueller report ', that's a plus for Democrats
Voters will think, "What are Republicans hiding?.
The Mueller Report was a blessing in disguise for us.

Mueller willing to testify? Don't let Dworkin fool you again

A few minutes ago I kicked a thread about Mueller being asked to testify in Congress and being willing to do so. But then I saw that the author was Scott Dworkin, who didn't say how he knows this information.

I Googled "Mueller willing to testify". No news articles showed Mueller being willing to testify.

There are February articles saying Democrats will ask him to testify. But that's old news. Then there is Scott Dworkin's track record:

If you follow Scott Dworkin on Twitter you will get your hopes up about things that will not materialize.

Stacey Abrams: The early VP announcement claim was made up

Media outlets who ran with this story have some explaining to do:

"We talked about whether I was thinking about running. We talked about whether he was thinking about running. But we did not have that conversation and everything else is pure speculation made up by somebody else."

Pundits were talking about a “gimmick” and all that crap.
