    Because fascists don’t care about the law? What even is this question?

      The party line is that he is a terrorist. It is implied by the arrest, not by the tweet.

        I know they think he’s a terrorist, but I just wanted to point out that technically the tweet never actually calls him a terrorist or Hamas or anything of the sort. It’s more of a minor nitpick than anything.

          Do they? According to Marco Rubio, he supports terrorists, but that isn’t the same thing.

          I would argue AOC was addressing the situation generally, rather than the tweet specifically.

            That’s fair. As I said I was nitpicking, not making any sort of serious argument.

        They never implied that he’s a terrorist, only that he supports terrorists.

          Arresting him says otherwise.

            What reason did they give for arresting him?

              Department of Homeland Security accused him of “leading activities aligned to Hamas”
