Feb 20, 2020
Isn't white supremacy a global problem? We have seen attacks by white supremacists who were clearly experts in domestic terrorism. In fact, Acting Attorney General Jeff Sessions even called some of these cases disguised domestic terrorism. It's an incident, the Emanuel AME Church shooting of black Americans in Charleston and the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh of Jews that were only designated and charged as hate crimes, not incidents of terrorism domestic, you won't find an actual domestic terrorism charge out there if you look closely at Title 18, it says that here, but in the San Bernardino shooting or the Alando Pulse nightclub shooting they were designated and charged as domestic terrorism incidents , They were accused.

I would have to go back and look, they were probably charged with whether there was a connection with a foreigner. terrorist organization then because because the perpetrator was Muslim it doesn't seem that because the perpetrator is Muslim there is no reason for the designation to say it is a foreign organization is not correct if that is not correct, can you explain it? Yes, wine, homegrown violent extremist. Who are most of the people we arrest in the United States, homegrown, self-radicalized, US-born violent extremists. It doesn't matter what religion, but the Orlando Post Club shooter meets those requirements and is an international terrorist because he was following, but it was local and self-radicalized in these cases, how we work in local cases with extremist cases. global jihad in which we work under international terrorism, that's right, white supremacy is not a global problem, it is a global problem, so why aren't they charged as foreign because Congress's tax base does not have a statute for us for domestic terrorism like we have it? about a foreign terrorist organization like Isis al-qaeda al-shabaab, could you see how this could create problems and discrepancies with how violent extremism by Muslim perpetrators could potentially, even if it's not intentional, but that there are holes and gaps here, not through the fault of you or any specific person, it could be our fault as Congress, but could you see what it could look like the way we pursue and accuse white supremacy, particularly if they tend to be accused of crimes of hate and where that same type of violence crimes committed by a Muslim extremist could be charged with domestic terrorism.

Hate crimes and domestic terrorism are addressed and charged. They are different crimes and could be pursued differently with different resource allocations. Can you see how people would say these are treated differently? so you won't take down lies or you'll take down lies so I think it's just a pretty simple yes or no, Congressman Eunos recently that Facebook's official policy now allows politicians to pay to spread disinformation and in the 2020 election and beyond. . so I just want to know how far I can take this.

Could you pay to target predominantly black zip codes and announce the wrong election date to them? No congresswoman could. We even have these policies around newsworthiness, but you said you're not going to check my ass if anyone, including a politician, is saying things that might cause a call for violence or could risk imminent physical harm. or smell or census depression, when we implement the census depression policy, we will take that content, so there will be a threshold where it will check political ads, that's where you're telling me, well, congressman, yes, and for things specific like that.

Could you run ads targeting Republicans in the primaries saying they voted for the green new deal? Could you run Facebook ads targeting Republicans in the primaries saying they voted for the green new deal? I mean, if you're not checking political facts I'm just trying to understand the limits here. I don't know the answer to what comes to mind. I don't think you know if I can do it. Do you see a potential problem? here with a complete lack of fact checking in political ads, well congressman, I think lying is bad and I think if you ran an ad that had a lie in it, it would be bad, that's different than it being or in our position the right thing to do . what to do to prevent your constituents or people in an election from seeing that you lie, so you won't accept lies or eliminate lies, so I guess I'm not talking about a pretty simple yes or no congresswoman.
Giro, I'm talking about real democracy. I think people should be able to see for themselves which politicians they may or may not vote for, you won't accept, so if you want, you can point out that it's wrong, but they won't accept. is a congressman, it depends on the context in which he appears organic presents a question, one more question at his ongoing dinners with far-right figures, some of whom have advanced the conspiracy theory that white supremacy is a hoax, discussed the so-called Social Media Bias against conservatives and do you think there is a bias, Congressman, remember everything at the end, sorry, I'll move on.
Can you explain why you named the Daily Caller a well-documented white publication with ties to white supremacists? as the official fact checker for the congresswoman from Facebook, I'm sure we don't actually appoint independent fact checkers, they go through an independent organization called the Independent Fact Checking Network that has a rigorous standard for who they allow to serve as data center for you I would say that the white supremacist tide posts meet a rigorous standard for a fact check. Thank you congressman. I would say that we are not the ones who evaluate that standard. The international fact-checking network is setting that standard.
This is a pattern. about some people being subject to the rule of law and others not, I think this taps into a deeper narrative in a deeper pattern of what's happening in this administration where they believe the rule of law only belongs and applies to some people and not others right here we are now about twenty years away from the Central Park Five where the president ran a full page ad demanding the death penalty for five black and brown children children for whom they were not yet 18 years old demanding the penalty of death something they were accused of and were innocent of and here we just documented evidence of multiple violations of the same law and he won't even slap me on the wrist let me know when the jail sentence starts .
This is a pattern over some. people are subject to the rule of law and others are not, and when that happens there is no rule of law at all and that is why it is important that we make sure that everyone is held accountable because whether it is a billionaire or an administration official or whether it is a worker postcard or a child on the street we should all be equally responsible for the rule of law thank you very much I too have student loans and I think it's really fun a year ago I was waiting tables at a restaurant and it was literally easier for me becoming the youngest woman in American history elected to Congress to pay off my student loan debt, so that should tell you everything about the state of our economy and the state. quality of life for workers because to have the opportunity to have health care and be able to pay my student loans I had to do something that was almost impossible and I don't think that is the barrier through which a person should be able to access health care. education, health care and a host of other things that should be considered human rights and this bill and I'm very excited to introduce this bill with Senator Sanders, Congressman Omar and Congresswoman Jaya.
Paul to ensure that we begin to embark on solutions to these problems.
