Just by the way: independent of all the other censorship justifications offered here by Rubio, what is the basis for claiming Mahmoud Khalil is a "Hamas supporter?" I know some believe that any opposition to Israel's wars justifies that accusation, but anything beyond that?

And yet they still laundered Israel’s claim that their own camera was a “Ham@s” camera. Unbelievable.
NEW | Reuters says it no longer shares the coordinates of its Gaza teams with Israel after “so many journalists were killed” in IDF strikes, NBC’s @mollyhunter reports. A spokesperson said that early in the war Reuters, like other outlets, gave the army precise locations — “on multiple occasions,” including notifying Israel that its journalists were working from Nasser Hospital. That hospital was struck Monday, killing 22 people, including Reuters cameraman Hussam al-Masri and four other reporters. NBC spoke to a weapons expert who confirmed at least four Israeli munitions hit the site in the double-tap strike.

Here @chamath is framing a highly complex policy issue in an oversimplified manner that seeks to make the answer sound obvious. He should know better but I will go ahead and spell out why it’s a misleading question built on a pack of false assumptions. 1) it assumes everyone being sent to El Salvador is actually a domestic terrorist 2) it assumes the definition of a domestic terrorist is clearly defined 3) it assumes there is due process and innocent people are not caught in the dragnet 4) it assumes we have vetted the treatment of deported prisoners in El Salvador And finally and perhaps most importantly… 5) it assumes the government will never abuse the definition of “domestic terrorist” for political or sinister purposes When considering policy implications like these that impact fundamental rights, an easy framework to check yourself with is, “were Hitler our president, would I be in favor of or against said policy?”
Why should domestic terrorists NOT be sent to El Salvador?

When I first spoke out about the genocide, I was one of the few voices in tech, and it came at a cost. I faced sabotage especially from the VC class: lies, leaks, threats, and blocked investments. It was painful, but I never once regretted standing up for the children in Gaza. Today, the tide in tech has shifted. The truth is undeniable. If you’ve been holding back, now is the time to speak out and call out anyone supporting or celebrating genocide. It won’t cost you much—in fact, it will earn you respect, and more importantly a clear conscious. Plus, alienating those who will hate you for speaking is a feature, not a bug.

Supposedly an unprecedented 2.2 million turnout with 60% above 45 years old. I am going to be an optimist and say @andrewcuomo is going to get the win. If he fails to win, it’s because @CurtisSliwa cares more about himself than NYC. Let’s never forget that. If Andrew wins, he is going to be a great mayor. Why? Because he will owe nothing to the Democratic Party and he will be working only for his legacy. He can therefore do whatever is right for NYC for the long term without worrying about the political consequences. @realDonaldTrump is going to want to work with Cuomo to Make NY Great Again, MNYGA.

The problem with this apology is that @VanJones68 still hasn’t retracted or even acknowledged his absurd claim that Qatari/Iranian bots were to blame for the images of dead Gazan babies in our feeds, rather than the people ACTUALLY KILLING them.
I made a comment on Real Time with Bill Maher about the war in Gaza that was insensitive and hurtful. I apologize.   The suffering of the people of Gaza — especially the children — is not a punch line. I’m deeply sorry it came across that way. What’s happening to children in Gaza is heartbreaking. As a father, I can’t begin to imagine the pain their parents are enduring, unable to protect their kids from unimaginable harm.   I’m praying and working for an immediate end to this war — and for peace and safety for every family caught in its path. I’m truly sorry for the pain my words caused to people who are already suffering more than anyone should.
