What’s with Greenwald throwing around the word ‘cowardly’

Trump is anything but cowardly!

I don’t appreciate this from Greenwald even though I have generally liked his writings

Not doing the right thing because you're afraid of Mitch McConnell isn't exactly a profile in courage.

All through 2020’s BLM/Antifa “Summer Of Love” Trump hid under his desk.

In 2005, Greenwald took a long vacation to Rio de Janeiro where he met David Miranda, a 19 year old who had spent his childhood in a Favela.[162] Days after they met, the couple decided to move in together; the two would later marry.[163] Miranda now serves as a Congressman with the left-wing PSOL party.[162] The couple live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[164][163] In 2017, Greenwald and Miranda announced that they had gained legal guardianship of two brothers, who are from Maceió, a city in Northeastern Brazil.[165][better source needed][166] They formally adopted the two boys in Brazil in 2018.

While Greenwald does not participate in any organized religion, he has said he believes in “the spiritual and mystical part of the world” and that yoga is “like a bridge into that, like a window into it.”

“I don’t appreciate this from Greenwald even though I have generally liked his writings”

Greenwald (who is gay by the way) is a Libertarian, which is why Tucker Carlson (who once was and probably still is or leans that way a Libertarian) has Greenwald on his show all the time.

Greenwald inserted himself into both the Snowden and Assange situations early on. IIRC, he was helping Snowden find safe houses while he was still on the run, and also viewed and defended Assange from the libertarian viewpoint, national security precedents be damned.

Here's an article that gives a certain amount of factual background; even though it is from the New Republic, a leftish publication:

Would You Feel Differently About Snowden, Greenwald, and Assange If You Knew What They Really Thought?
