I'm sorry, is the Trump Administration talking to a tech platform?

Is it...requesting content moderation?

Today following outreach from @thejusticedept, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target @ICEgov agents in Chicago.
The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs. The Department of Justice will continue engaging tech companies to eliminate platforms where radicals can incite imminent violence against federal law enforcement.

BREAKING: Israel plans to halve aid into Gaza, accusing Hamas of violating ceasefire with slow release of dead hostages, AP sources say.

Israel plans to halve aid into Gaza over slow return of dead hostages, a test for the Gaza ceasefire

The tenuous ceasefire in the two-year Israel-Hamas war is being tested as complex issues remain a day after widespread jubilation over the return to Israel of the last 20 living hostages held in Gaza and the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners in exchange.

Quelli che hanno costruito la loro identità politica sul fare dell’istigazione alla violenza politica legittimo dissenso da non moderare — cenzuraa! — oggi senza pudore alcuno chiedono di moderare quella che chiamano istigazione alla violenza politica.

Tradotto: libertà sì, ma solo per loro.

A lot of the J6 groups came down, btw, based on FB's own calls, because of calls for violence within those groups. That got reframed as "anti-conservative censorship".

What apparently happened here is that Laura Loomer got upset about some groups she thought needed to come down & DOJ made requests.

Time Magazine wrote a relatively good story about me, but the picture may be the Worst of All Time. They "disappeared" my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. Really weird! I never liked taking pictures from underneath angles, but this is a super bad picture, and deserves to be called out. What are they doing, and why?
