Season 5, Episode 1 of the TV series ‘Madam Secretary’ has a scene where three actual former Secretaries of State sit with the fictional one and discuss the dangers of Nationalism - not the same as Patriotism - and that it is addressed in the Constitution and must to be fought against.

The episode came out in 2018.

It’s like the writers knew what would happen.

Update on Lives Lost from USAI...

"For years, #ImranAhmed has presented his research on how #techplatforms enable the spread of #antisemitism to receptive audiences across the ideological spectrum.

He’s worked with the #AntiDefamationLeague and #JewishFederations of North America; the latter credits Ahmed with the backbone of much of its own policy proposals[...]

He’s joined #Republicans in advocating for an end to #Section230, a law granting special protections to #socialmedia platforms. During the first #Trump administration, on the strength of his research, the #British-born Ahmed received a priority visa as an “alien of extraordinary ability” — the so-called “#Einsteinvisa,” after the German-born #Jewish physicist.

All of that only added to Ahmed’s befuddlement when, just before Christmas, the current Trump #StateDepartment announced it would be revoking his #visa because of what #SecretaryofState #MarcoRubio tweeted were “egregious acts of extraterritorial censorship.”

He researches antisemitism for a living. Why does the State Department want to kick him out of the country?

Imran Ahmed, who runs the Center for Countering Digital Hate, has worked with mainstream Jewish groups.
