Yes, also important to understand the history of “material support” as a cudgel weaponizes against outspoken Arab and Muslim activists for years. I remember one guy charged with material support because he was collecting socks to send to a charity in Gaza that someone decided was “terror linked”
Also must point out that they’re simply inventing (& hoping you won’t notice) that Khalil or any other protester was “provid[ing] material support” to any banned foreign group. Material support is a tangible thing. ADL has been making this slanderous accusation w/o any evidence since protests began
The Anti Defamation League is so right, if there’s one thing that makes me feel safe as a Jew, it’s people with unpopular political opinions getting abducted by the government

Elon is a despicable monster who deserves every bit of our loathing, but we can never forget it’s Trump who gave him this power. Wrath can have multiple targets.
