The article never actually claims this (link for convenience). They say Kareem was pressed for information, but that's as far as his personal claims go. All the bits about quid pro quo or promises not to deport were generalized claims by lawyers. Unless I've missed something, there is nothing...

Where in that article does it indicate that Mossad threatened him?

Feel free to reread the article. It says that rumors of his sexuality were spreading, his father set his cousins to spy on him, and explicitly threatened him with death were he to come out. That's quite a bit of evidence his family knew. The word "exploit" is only actually used in the headline...

Do you think the family that filed that tip agreed to characterize him as gay? The premise is that he would be lying about being gay to get into Israel to attack them.

Correct. His father threatened to kill him, and Israel took him in. He was then accused of being a terror cell for Hamas, and Israel asked him for information on Hamas. He's still living in Tel Aviv, with intention for him to find asylum in another nation further from the threats on his life...

Ok, now why did you bold that specific sentence? Was it to imply that it is speculative that his family interfered? The author says, in no uncertain terms, that they filed the report on him.

Interesting choice of snippet. Hard to say you're trying to hide anything with the link posted, but odd you decided that his family sending in tips that he's a terrorist with Hamas wasn't relevant context to the questioning, or that he's still living in Tel Aviv safely isn't an outcome worth...

Adjusted for inflation, 2011 and 2016 are both larger sums. No role for Congress is almost ever specified. Think of it this way: Congressional Representatives are only elected for 2 years at a time, it wouldn't make any sense to assign them a role for specific, continuous oversight duty. The...

If you think things are different under Trump in any really meaningful way, you weren't paying attention to anything that came before him.

I invite you to try to source that claim. I may suggest sticking to factual information, rather than building on falsehoods and inventing much of the rest.

That's just how American government works. A document would have to either be part of a few specific categories of action (something like covert war plans) or explicitly define independence from congress (something like the Federal Reserve) to be exempt from or even limited in Congressional...

Firstly, an affirmative claim that this is brazen corruption, without even the slightest qualifier, is not suspicion or even accusation, either of which would allow for the potential of exoneration. I am not asking for proof, I am asking for reason. If you'd like to consider possible standards...

Because Congressional oversight is implicit in everything the government does that is not explicitly and strictly designated to the other 2 branches. No, you aren't. You are hoping these things magically fix your broken perspective. Trump sued the IRS because the IRS under Biden essentially...

I believe you are correct on the subject of detainers beyond a prisoner's set time of incarceration, I do not think Phoenix is right about that. But I also know that certain states and jurisdictions go out of their way to avoid immigration enforcement happening. California penal code, for...
