@neeratanden If only the media didn’t have Hasan derangement syndrome. Why don’t you try talking about something that’s actually important to people, Neera.
This is hilarious. Gayle King tells Angie Nixon -- who won the Dem Senate primary in Florida last night -- that she campaigned with Hasan Piker, and CBS has a huge package of Hasan pictures ready to run over her face. Except she never did campaign with Hasan, as she quickly says.
Then Gayle asks her: "will you?" And when Craig says: I'm focused on Florida voters and don't really know him, Gayle King looks shocked and incredulous. How can you not know him? It's the only thing we in the media ever talk about. You must be fixated on what we're fixated on. So revealing of the insular media mindset.
No member of Congress has been a more vehement defender of a ubiquitous, warrantless domestic surveillance state than Mike Rogers. He was the CIA and NSA's lead man in the GOP House.
Smart of @AbdulElSayed to highlight this and the critical importance of privacy in the US:
🔴 The Israeli army rigged and detonated the reservoir in Mansouri, Lebanon, destroying the town’s only fresh water source.
Demolishing civilian infrastructure is a war crime and an act of genocide.
A group of Israeli settler children attacked a Palestinian Red Crescent ambulance transporting a patient.
Take a moment to look at their ages
This is the curriculum of a society that has normalized violence against an entire people- and celebrates it as patriotism
🚨NEW: Jeffries declared his opposition to Medicare For All 72 hours after a Yale study shows it would save 100,000 lives & $1 trillion
Context: Jeffries raked in $391k from health PACs & faced no primary pressure to hold the line on Dem priorities because a primary was crushed
This South Florida news anchor, @GlennaWPLG, quite obviously loves Israel a great deal and feel protective loyalty to it, which is her right.
What isn't her right is to posture as a journalist and then state that it's factually false that Israel committed genocide and, worse, to state that the UN concluded it isn't genocide, when -- in fact -- most human rights groups, Israeli genocide scholars, tribunals many governments around the world, and the UN have officially concluded Israel has committed genocide.
