1.After the Apple Daily closure, Stand News became the largest free media in Hong Kong. Today, we have witnessed another forced closure with a number of arrests. The message Beijing sends is clear: report in the way that we allow, or end up in jail.

Woke up to a photo from a friend of a Jewish man who was beaten and maced in Times Square yesterday. I’m told the NYPD hate crime unit took his *bloody kippa* as evidence. Is the mainstream media going to ignore the spike in antisemitsm until jews are literally rounded up again?
@IlhanMN Hamas bombs Israeli civilians from Gaza and there's crickets from Congresswoman Omar.
Israel strikes back at the source of the airstrikes and there's immediate condemnation.
The outrage only seems to travel in one direction for some members of Congress.
I'm standing with the people of Israel who are coming under bombardment attacks, and condemn the Hamas terrorists. The people of NYC will always stand with our brothers and sisters in Israel who face down terrorism and persevere.
THREAD: WHAT'S REALLY HAPPENING IN JERUSALEM RIGHT NOW? (per @IsraelNitzan)
In the last hour, in a dangerous escalation, the terrorist organization Hamas has fired 7 rockets from Gaza to Jerusalem and its vicinity, endangering both Israeli and Palestinian citizens.
@IlhanMN You really are just a shill for Hamas! No word, not one, at fact that it is Hamas and Palestinian terrorists in #Gaza that have fired over 100 rockets at #Israel tonight!
Rep. Omar called out for seeming to be 'okay' with Hamas terrorist rocket fire against Israel
Here's the truth: Hamas is indiscriminately attacking civilians in Israel and Israel is defending itself by firing back in targeted strikes against terrorists.
