Today I instructed my legal advisers to consider the harshest legal action against The New York Times and Nicholas Kristof. They defamed the soldiers of Israel and perpetuated a blood libel about rape, trying to create a false symmetry between the genocidal terrorists of Hamas and Israel’s valiant soldiers. Under my leadership, Israel will not be silent. We will fight these lies in the court of public opinion and in the court of law. Truth will prevail.

White House counterterrorism czar Sebastian Gorka says there must be limits to freedom of speech, like "incitement" (as defined by the government). "There are things within our laws that you are not allowed to say, right?"

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee: I hear people say, “I don’t want anything to do with Israel.” Okay, give up your cell phone. Give up car navigation. Give up some medical innovations that may have saved some member of your family’s life. Be sure, by the way, to give up some conveniences like cherry tomatoes and seedless watermelons while you’re at it. And let’s just go ahead and don’t buy anything that has an Nvidia or an Intel chip. Let’s get rid of most of your computers and a whole lot of the software that you use because it was innovated here. And I’m sorry to break it to you, but if you hate Israel that much, you’re going to be living a very different kind of life.

When did we normalize this? When did it become okay for a president to tell a female reporter she’s a ‘dumb person’ for asking a totally legitimate question about his contradictory answers? Was there a specific date and time it become okay? Normal? Normalized?
