Is The Intercept's Sledge hyperventilating? Over-reacting & writing sensationalism? What is your view on this piece & content? Would Rubio be right? I think any move to protect Americans & homeland is

critical; "New Bill Would Give Marco Rubio “Thought Police” Power to Revoke U.S. Passports Rubio has already sought to punish immigrants for speech. New legislation might let him do it for U.S.

citizens.”

Firstly, fundamentally I think Trump wants to do all he can to protect the homeland and Americans. I am for that.

Rubio is no longer ‘Lil Marco’ and is running things and being groomed for POTUS. People like Vance et al. have zero chance.

The article and Stern suggests that:

“Rubio has claimed the power to designate people terrorist supporters based solely on what they think.”

What is your view? We need to see that text and I have not seen it but there are many checks and balances built into US system to prevent that, abuse, in a good governance society where rights are protected first, and I am sure Marco is not going in that direction. Who can be penalized for thinking? Need to distinguish that with ‘material planning’ etc. This is complex and interesting too to consider. Yet would we be proactive and well positioned to go one step back to before the actually planning actions? Your views? Is Marco testing the boundaries? Is Mast doing so? I like Mast. I think a real patriot. Hero. He left it on the battlefield.

see Intercept here:

‘“In March, Secretary of State Marco Rubio stripped Turkish doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk’s of her visa based on what a court later found was nothing more than her opinion piece critical of Israel.

Now, a bill introduced by the chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee is ringing alarm bells for civil liberties advocates who say it would grant Rubio the power to revoke the passports of American citizens on similar grounds.

The provision, sponsored by Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., as part of a larger State Department reorganization, is set for a hearing Wednesday.

Mast’s legislation says that it takes aim at “terrorists and traffickers,” but critics say it could be used to deny American citizens the right to travel based solely on their speech. (The State Department said it doesn’t comment on pending legislation.)

“Rubio has claimed the power to designate people terrorist supporters based solely on what they think.”

Seth Stern, the director of advocacy at Freedom of the Press Foundation, said the bill would open the door to “thought policing at the hands of one individual.”

“Marco Rubio has claimed the power to designate people terrorist supporters based solely on what they think and say,” Stern said, “even if what they say doesn’t include a word about a terrorist organization or terrorism.”

Vague “Terrorist” Designations

Mast, for his part, has publicly voiced his support for “kicking terrorist sympathizers out of our country.” At the time, he was talking about deporting Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian green-card holder who the Trump administration detained and attempted to deport based on what critics of the move said were his pro-Palestine views.
