On Mother's Day in 2019, I obtained a massive archive of materials from Brazil's most powerful officials. The reporting we did changed the country, and our lives.
Watergate vs. Snowden. Talk about dichotomy. In the first the bad guys were taken down, while in the latter the bad guys won and the lone good guy no doubt has a CIA capture or kill order on his head.
Death threats and other credible threats of prosecution or deportation aside, have Brazilian media critics said mean things about you on Twitter? Because that would be beyond the pale.
My only comment: you and your family should move out of Brazil to an undisclosed location. The recent failure of your security system is evidence that you have only the illusion of safety where you are currently living. The time to go is now. Best.
I have to say after reading this that Glen and Tucker are two of the smartest and bravest journalists around. I now understand why Tucker has Glen on as a guest so often. This subscription has been well worth the money.
You have sacrificed so much for integrity and greatness, you are a true hero in my eyes and I thank you for being who you are Glenn. I've been thinking of you often after the story about the violence you experienced recently, thoughts and prayers being such, i'm invested in your well being emotionally so I hope the efficacy of such is valid.
Would love to buy an autographed copy of the book as soon as I'm able,. Great perk to offer subscribers, appreciate it.
I have mad respect for you bro, mostly because you take care of so many dogs but also because you're the best journalist in the world.
I think when you have that "big story", it means "tenure" status so... kind of done then. Of course, associated publicity would mean further contacts on other big stories would come your way.
But why bother? Status is assured. All else is just risk assumption for no personal gain.
In fact, the "one and done" is precisely evidence of a choice made by the journalist, public proof manifest.
Of course those rare individuals that choose otherwise, are rather annoying people.
“that I had paid Russian hackers in bitcoins” LOL the Russian boogeyman is alive and well in Brazilian politics too. Sounds like Brazilian politics is just as corrupt as US politics.
Wow I never knew how Glenn's reporting and Lula's freedom went hand in hand! Bless Glenn and true journalism that transforms our World! Free Julian Assange! Flush Corporate News down the mainstream toilet!
Fascinating. Obviously, Bolsonaro and the Justice Minister in Brazil never read 'No Place to Hide'. .. it must work both ways.
There's a reason these big-time whisleblowers choose Greenwald ~ his fight or flight reflex does not work. .. yet he's not stupid.
I, too, would urge caution, at least pending the Moro appeal, but I shan't waste my breath. .. the unfettered free press is democracy.
*I suspect this is going to put a dent in Greenwald's MAGA hat Fox news 'right wing culture warrior' status here in the States. Not enough to get him invited on MSNBC or Meet The Press or writing Op eds for the NYT or anything like that .. . but, still, the mighty oak started from just an acorn.
Glenn, your integrity and sacrifices are appreciated by a lot of people. Thank you.
I reviewed the book for Jacobin, b/c I was worried it wouldn't get a fair hearing on the left. I hope it will get a wide readership.
Is there a site where we can order a signed copy? I'd gladly pay more for that.
Real journalism sounds like hard work. I can see why it's all but disappeared in the United States.
Thanks for your terrific hard work, Glenn. Transformative and courageous journalism.

Stay safe.
Thank you, Glenn, for always giving me more than the cost of my subscription.
I have always boycotted Amazon for numerous reasons but I certainly will buy your book if I can get it or order it at my local independent book store.
