Whoever you are, whatever your values, recognize the historic importance of this: it is second time the US government's retaliation against *the same whistleblower* has been found equivalent to torture. Telling the truth has become the greatest of crimes. twitter.com/NPR/status/121…

Our statement at @FreedomofPress on the false charges laid by Brazil's Bolsonaro regime against @ggreenwald for reporting the biggest corruption story in years -- corruption in the Justice Ministry itself! These charges are unbelievable, unsupported, and indefensible.
