2. Another attack on free speech, this time by Yale

"This is not about me. It's not about Mahmoud Khalil."

This is a "very much coordinated attack on free speech...

"& about how much the government is terrified of not being able to silence the voices that they've been trying to silence for so many years."

~Dr. Helyeh Doutaghi

Jewish Onliner accused Doutaghi of membership of a pro-Palestinian advocacy organization.

Report: Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) shared a video of Mahmoud Khalil's arrest:

“Ideas are not illegal", the group said, "& there is no ‘controversial speech’ exception to the First Amendment.

“Our right to free speech includes advocacy for Palestine. We will not be intimidated. We will not be stopped. We will fight until Mahmoud Khalil is free.

"We will fight until Palestine is free."

“Never Again for Anyone”: 100 Jewish Activists Arrested at Trump Tower

Over 300 protesters with Jewish Voice for Peace demanded the immediate release of Mahmoud Khalil.

They held banners reading “opposing fascism is a Jewish tradition.”

“I refuse to allow this administration to use our names as Jews to carry out a fascist agenda." It has far-right white supremacists that do the Nazi salute, & Trump is fine with that.

Interview: "Judge Blocks Mahmoud Khalil’s Deportation as Trump Vows More Arrests"

Khalil’s unprecedented arrest is to punish antiwar student activists & is part of Trump’s racist & fascist agenda.

~Murad Awawdeh

If the intent was to silence free speech, it's not working.

And, as the anti-genocide movement is mostly made up of Americans, the administration can't deport its way out of this situation.

Interview: "How the Media Walked us into Autocracy"

"The American corporate coup d'état is almost complete as the first weeks of the Trump administration exemplify.

“The sign of a decaying democracy is that when the forces of plutocracy, oligarchy, multinational corporations increase their power in all sectors of our society, the resistance gets weaker.

Center for Systemic Peace, which published the Polity Index: "The USA dropped below the "democracy threshold" (+6) on the POLITY scale in 2020 and was considered an anocracy (+5) at the end of the year 2020; the USA score for 2021 returned to democracy (+8). Beginning on 1 July 2024, due to the US Supreme Court ruling granting the US Presidency broad, legal immunity, the USA is noted by the Polity Project as experiencing a regime transition through, at least, 20 January 2025. ... The USA is no longer considered a democracy and lies at the cusp of autocracy; it has experienced a Presidental Coup and an Adverse Regime Change event (8-point drop in its POLITY score)."

Curtis Yarvin. (See wiki link below, first three paras)
Hes the man behind Peter Thiel, Trump, Vance, Steve Bannon &co and the Trump/MAGA movement. Pure evil.

This is not fascism modelled on 1930s - its called the Dark Enlightenment/neo-feudalism.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis

The book 👇 summarising/critique-ing Yarvin's "philosophy" makes for very chilling reading. The screen shots below are just one small part.

I would put a Content Warning on this but we must MUST inform ourselves about what their agenda is.

"A few hours ago, the exchange of all information was stopped," the source said.

Earlier, the Ukrainian source indicated the previously "selective" pause meant #US #intelligence would still be shared w/ #Ukraine that could be used to attack #Russia’s forces only on Russian-occupied Ukrainian territory.

The move is another blow after #Trump decided to stop all military #aid to Ukraine.

Dellinger’s case focuses on whether he is a true agency head who can be removed at will or an “inferior officer” who can be protected from firing w/o cause.

During a hearing Wed, Jackson challenged arguments by the #Trump admin’s lawyers that reversing the firing would encroach on the president’s constitutional authority to appoint people he trusts to executive branch positions.

“His actual job is to be a check & balance on the president,” she said.

The president has broad power under Article II of the Constitution to choose the leaders of #FederalAgencies or fire them at will. But #Congress carved out exceptions intended to preserve the #independence & #impartiality of certain #independent agency leaders.

#SCOTUS has upheld for-cause removal rules for agencies w/multiple leaders but recently ruled that such restrictions don’t apply to certain agencies w/a single director.
