AMERICAN POLICE CONTINUE TO SUPPRESS PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS AS GENOCIDE IN GAZA CONTINUES UNABATED
📹 Scenes from Arizona State University published on Al-Jazeera Palestine where local police act as an occupying force in the United States, assaulting and arresting student protesters who rally in support of Palestine and against the genocide in Gaza.
On February 20, 1939, the German-American Bund, aka the American Nazi Party, held a huge rally at Madison Square Garden. It was a raucous scene inside and out, as protesters scuffled with police, who numbered 1,500.

I'm bringing this up because an old post from February 2022 of mine about the Earn It Act bill was getting popular again. Apparently, the Bill came back again in April 2023 (It's still getting decided by the House Judiciary Committee).
Lindsey Graham will keep reintroducing this bill. He already has plans on reintroducing it in 2024.
Here is a Wiki Page on the Earn It Act bill in case you have no idea what it is
But to summarize what the Earn It Act bill is. It's disguised as a bill to "protect the children." When in reality it's a bill to have more monitoring and control. Especially to groups such as LGBTQ+, Sex Workers, and Protesters.
The Bill also wants to include a "Backdoor."
A Backdoor is something that even Homeland Security is highly against. It's for "easier" access to your internet system such as your device.
The reason Homeland Security is so against this idea is because it's like having a firewall that is supposed to protect you from the outside, keeping all the stuff that could cause us harm out... only to have a backdoor with a welcome mat attached to it. So like, what is the point of having a firewall protection if you are just going to install a door that is easy for anyone to come and go as they, please.
Here is the bill that will be active again in 2024 since it died in committee this year. Lindsey Graham will keep reintroducing this bill for who knows how long. So be prepared for it.
Edit: It did not die! That is my bad! I was very exhausted and didn't do my fourth reread on it. But tomorrow will be decision day and we will see if the bill died. If it did then we will have to be prepare when Lindsey Graham reintroduce it again in 2024.

Several women interrupted Chelsea Handler’s comedy show in Richmond, Virginia, on Friday night in a coordinated effort to protest the Jewish comedian’s support for Israel since the start of the Israel-Hamas war.
The incident took place at Handler’s show Little Big Bit**h at the Altria Theater. In a video that was shared on social media, one female audience member at the show stood up and shouted at Handler, “Murder. Mass Murder.” The pro-Israel comedian first replied, “I can’t hear you,” before adding, “Oh, honey, please. This is not what this night is for.” She then asked security guards to remove the protester from the audience.
Female demonstrators in the audience also yelled “Palestinian babies — you’re a genocide supporter” and “Free Palestine.” Some audience members who got frustrated by the show’s interruption helped authorities identify the protesters and were told by one of the activists, “You guys should be this angry about genocide, not people standing up.”
“Be angry about genocide and people dying — children are dying with our tax dollars,” shouted the same protester, referring to the US providing aid to Israel amid its war against Hamas terrorists controlling the Gaza Strip following the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks. After an audience member answered, “They should die,” the female protester replied, “They should die? Say that on camera.”
One protester was arrested by police and can be seen in the video being escorted away from the show in handcuffs. Handler also told the protesters, “Do you know that I’ve been on tour for a year and a half and this is the only city two people stand up? You guys really owe me an apology.”
The protesters appeared to be associated with the organization Here 4 The Kids, which said in an Instagram post that the demonstrators on Friday night “forced other white people to confront our American complicity in GENOCIDE, begging them to no longer remain silent after 195 days of massacre.”
“These are protestors who are AGAINST the indiscriminate slaughter of human beings,” the organization added, before telling Handler: “YOU owe Palestinians an apology. YOU owe every single orphaned Palestinian child AN APOLOGY. YOU owe HUMANITY an apology. Demand a Free Palestine.”
Handler said in 2022 that she stands with the Jewish community in its fight against antisemitism and in February of this year filmed a video with Israeli activist Noa Tishby to address misinformation being spread about Israel during the ongoing war in Gaza. She said in the clip that she is “pro-Palestinian and anti-Hamas, and it is OK to question Israel’s policies and still be pro-Israel.” She also called Israel “our greatest defense in the Middle East for all of Western democracy and Western values.”
Although Handler has been critical of Israel over the years, she joined hundreds of celebrities in signing on open letter in October that thanked US President Joe Biden for supporting Israel after it launched a war targeting Hamas terrorists in Gaza. The open letter also called on Biden to “not rest until all hostages are released.” Days after the Oct. 7 attacks, Handler, condemned Hamas and its “barbarism” in a statement.
