Former president Donald Trump calls his globe-trotting ex-diplomat ‘my envoy.’ Neither is in office. Richard Grenell has been acting as a kind of shadow secretary of state, meeting with far-right leaders and movements, and pledging Trump’s support. wapo.st/3PES7je
@washingtonpost Ric Grenell is not hanging out with liberal democrats. The reason is self-evident. He’s part of the authoritarian resurgence, if not leading it.
@washingtonpost And by "far right", they mean "not Socialist".
@washingtonpost Grenell is acting like Minister of Foreign Affairs of Nazi Germany Joachim von Ribbentrop.
@washingtonpost He’s doing side hustle with Jared Kushner in Albania. Very shadowy agreements with the Alb PM Edi Rama. I find it at least not ethical,that someone designated as future Sec of State might facilitate private deals between Trump family and the PM of another country.
@washingtonpost Richard Grenell works for Vladimir Putin.
@washingtonpost Lock him up to. Laws matter. Clear violation of the Logan act.
@washingtonpost he's obscene - shoot someone on 5th, no consequences, remove the mags they weren't there to shoot/beat/kill him, no consequences - he attends a funeral today - nothing is sacred - not the law, uniform or a memorial service - blue line supports him?! obscene
